    So Mic looks at the alien head plan,agrees and decides to drill a pinball and make it into a captive ball.
    Can you drill that stuff?

    Mic and dick have a nice siderail in the making..
    There will be one loose ball that hits a target and then the alien head starts moving and talking.
    Great idea, loving it!

    Is that going to be similar to the captive ball on NGG?

    I actually don't recall ngg's captive ball.
    Ours will hit a target...just wait half an hour and compare lol

    I cut bizarre's bracket!

    #2075 6 years ago

    Ofcourse this bracket was in the way,but this is only a mockup playfield,throwing it together,cutting annd welding till it all fits and then we buy brand new stuff to make a final version

    IMG_1552 (resized).JPGIMG_1552 (resized).JPG

    #2076 6 years ago

    So this is what we came up with,our prototype playfield is too thick so the target doesn't come all the way through.
    But ignore that,you catch our drift right?

    Love the Las Vegas sign - so it's only polite to say 'hello' from Southern Nevada! I'm enjoying watching the build process - thanks for sharing this!

    Thanks man,hello from (about the middle of) the Netherlands,i was actually in doubt if you USA guys would like it.
    I figured ya'll might trip over this kind of merch over there and be going like:"yeah yeah,been there,owned that...great sign,captain obvious"

    #2099 6 years ago

    As i am thinking about the alien head today,i think we really need a classic comical,cartoony alien head..
    Maybe a bit of artwork like this Roswell sign.
    You know..a little wink to that myth?
    We could have the alien say something about Roswell?
    Something in the fashion of him honking his ufo horn when he flies over Roswell..just to mess with peoples minds in that town.

    No worries - one of the beauties of the pinball culture is how it crosses national lines. Some people will get offended at anything, fortunately they're not very common. As to tie-ins for the alien element, abductions, UFO sightings, or tasteful(?) butt probe references are all possibilities. And the amount of toys you find when searching 'Alien Gray Toy' or 'Grey' - or reverse to 'Gray Alien' is staggering. I will refrain from attaching images until I am certain where the copyright boundaries for doing so lie.
