Thank you!!
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
Quoted from 03whtlightning:Fantastic news!! Do you know what the price will be?
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.

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 We already started this 1 year ago, because of the rubber compound going out of date.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

Lol, you think we made 150 of these in a week? Very funny guy indeed!
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.
Quoted from DeeGor:Pretty lame to be advertising in this thread.
I didn’t make them :/

Whatever... Have a nice weekend! And it's still a hobby/ free time project for me!

Who is Zitt?
Quoted from lilmul123:I didn’t make them :/
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.
Quoted from DeeGor:Pretty lame to be advertising in this thread.
Pretty lame that I reacted to this fail
Quoted from georgio:Thanx!, you did receive a trunk from us, right? Just checked the waiting list
I should be on waiting lost hopefully. A couple years ago signed up.
Can you please re-post a photo of the variations you’re expecting you make?
No rush, but please put me down on your list
Quoted from pinballplusMN:I should be on waiting lost hopefully. A couple years ago signed up.
Yes you're on the list since 8 March 2021 !

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.

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

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

Yes indeed! Very happy with it.
Quoted from Kerry_Richard:Yes indeed! Very happy with it.
Nice to hear! Thanx. The everlasting candy
Quoted from georgio:Blue and Red ones also in this batch!
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.

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.

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!
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.
Quoted from etien:Just to say I have one for 7 years now on my TOM and not a scratch. Highly recommended
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.
Just rejoined the Theatre club yesterday and love the look of the blue trunk. Please add me to the list and thanks for all your efforts!
