Quoted from hassanchop:Got word that some emails ended up on the junk folder.
To all that sent me the email address, I ask to check the junk folder in case you got nothing.
I got my tracking number! Wooo Hooo!
Quoted from Pinzap:I’m just curious as to how could it say #___ of _ if he doesn’t know what the cap is?
30 pro (yellow, color, blood), 30 prem, 30 prem blood. 90 total.
Quoted from nikpinball:Anyone have a picture of a pro with the premium with blood colors? I want to see one before I choose pro or premium with blood
No one has received these yet. He just shipped them yesterday.
Quoted from pinchamp:So after following this project and it’s progress for 3 years I must say my expectations were very high. And after seeing the finished photos my expectations were even higher.
I knew there was a good chance that receiving the finished product, I could be disappointed.
NOTHING COULD BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH!!! I am blown away! Federico I know you are a professional artist but this is beyond words. However as a tribute to you and this work I feel the need to give my personal review here...
Pulling the translites out of the tube the first thing I realize is that these are printed on high quality film. I think film? They are heavy plastic like the factory translite. Not quite as thick but I think that works as an advantage as I hold each up to a window and the light comes through to provide a wonderful look at all the amazing details. And there are so many details to take in.
I must admit that watching this develop over time I really thought the style was “realism”. I was so so wrong! These are done in a graphic novel style providing realistic characters with just enough comic styling to give it a creative edge. That is perhaps the most wonderful surprise... it’s much more like looking at the cover of a graphic novel then a photo in an album.
And falling from the package as I pull it out are the limited original hand signed prints. These are of the first drawing done by Federico at the start of this project. That drawing is not on the translite so very cool to have it here signed and inscribed by the artist “stay alive with the walking dead” and numbered 4 of 30... and to finish it off two colour stickers with the same numbering - one to be placed by me on the back-box and the other to be tucked safely away.
I couldn’t decide which version to order so I actually ordered almost of them ... the premium (Green) without blood, the color pro (Red) with blood and, as a last minute decision, the artists’ original rendering... the pro yellow. You can’t go wrong with any of them! Each of them lights up beautifully from the back showing all the features in dramatic graphic novel style.
Thank you Federico for your outstanding work ... I am truly a fan for life!
I can’t wait to put one of these in my Walking Dead Pro which is unfortunately on location now so the install will have to wait. One will be framed along with the signed print. One will go to another local pinball enthusiast.
And all will be enjoyed forever!!![quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
I think I am going to be very happy when mine arrives!
Quoted from Betelgeuse:Am I the only person who's translite is still sitting in NY? There hasn't been any activity or updates since 5/26.
Are you looking at the original tracking Fed sent you, or using that tracking number through USPS? Once it got to the states, USPS took over the shipping.
Mine was delivered (California) this afternoon, but I haven't picked it up yet.
