If anyone doesn't want to wait, Zitt is selling some over here for $138: https://pinball-mods.com/oscom/trunk-p-89.html?utm_source=pinside&utm_medium=link

Not at this moment. When the batch is finished we look at the hours, material costs, failures etc. etc.
We try to maintain the old price, which was 95 Euros, added with the increased price of rubber compound.

Selling some? That's not our trunk! Our Trunk is made of rubber, not vinyl and not so thin.
Tested and approved by many.

Thanks for making this happen!!

I'm sure it'll be fine. It's certainly more durable than the OG trunk in any case.

I think it's funny you didn't start making these again until a competitor appeared lol

Competitor? We already started this 1 year ago, because of the rubber compound going out of date. You're very funny! You make them yourself? We just finished our movie props job and have 6 months of free time now to make new batches. Past 2 years already mentioned. LOL
Vinyl is used for making old LPs

Blue and Red ones also in this batch!

Well, considering 55 days ago, you said you didn’t know when you were going to make these again leads me to believe you didn’t have any intention of making them any time soon. And this is after a nearly three year hiatus with people saying they will literally throw money at you to make them. The timing is just too coincidental, sorry.

It doesn't matter. It's poor form.

For consistency, you better go talk to all the other mod makers that have ever made the same product as someone else and post in their product threads about the competition.

It really doesn't matter what his motivation is. We're all glad he's providing them.

No rush, but please put me down on your list

We have made a few in Red and Blue color. Problem is that the color is different with each trunk. We will place the colored ones on our website as single item so you can choose which color you like. But first the regular standard ones.

Very busy now!

The rubber compound we are using is thick and flexible. I personally love the Blue Gold color in my TOM.
Maybe an extra rabbit on the trunk would look great!

I have your Black / Gold version from your first run years ago.

I agree the Blue / Gold does look sharp! Especially seeing it in the game.

How is the Trunk doing? Still in the same state? Because of the thicker rubber the Trunks looks more 3D in the machine

#679 71 days ago

It looks like a deflated pancake to me! So thin and missing details. More 2D then 3D.

I would really like a blue trunk. I requested this a long time ago, but you decided not to make any colors other than black at that time. Can you please reserve a blue trunk for me?

I sent an e-mail to [email protected] but received the "we are no longer accepting requests by e-mail" reply. Thanks for following up on this.

#683 71 days ago

Interested in a black trunk.

You ordered 2 black/ gold trunks in 2017, right? Please send an email for a quick reminder to [email protected]. I will contact you when one is ready.

Amazing the work and efforts that go into a rubber magic trunk.

Thanks for doing this on such a great game!

Thanks for your reply! Rubber was a big challenge for us. Injection molding with a mold and plastic would be 100 times quicker but that doesn't work with rubber compounds. Also rubber and painting without tearing was an issue. After 6 months of testing, we believed our product was "ready".
Glad it did after many years and games. Better then expected!

#689 70 days ago

I like the look of the blue trunk as well. I’d like to be on the list for one if possible.

#690 70 days ago

The blue looks great! Please add me to the list for one.

#691 70 days ago

Current leadtime? How to sign up?
Normal black one (2x) if possible

Thanks

#692 70 days ago

Just to say I have one for 7 years now on my TOM and not a scratch. Highly recommended

#693 69 days ago

I sent a PM a few days ago. Blue one for me too, please.

#694 68 days ago

please add me to the list for a standard black version.

#695 68 days ago

Please add me to the list for a black one.

#696 67 days ago

No Panic if you're on the list or not. Making more every day. There will be enough!
When we are done, the Bally/ Williams/ PPS licensing will be arranged and the shipping can start

Sorry if I don't reply to your e-mail. Very busy making them. Please just wait.

Thanx for your input! Damaging the paint on rubber with steel balls hitting it all the time with flexing rubber was our biggest concern. Even after testing the Trunk for a long time. Came out better then we expected! Also after 10.000 games played and 7 years later. Paint companies didn't had an answer to our question. We can use our painting proces also on other rubber products like the goldeneye radar disc which is next to offer.
