Wizard of Oz
Jersey Jack, 2013I have not seen any comments about the word interactive when they describe the topper. What does that mean? To me interactive usually means it reacts with gameplay. Is it possible you will be able to have have human interaction and control it? Has Jack mentioned what the topper will be? I have not seen anything in any of the messages I have received? Any thoughts out there?
I know at one point people were talking a lot about a fan that blew back at you similar to WW and Twister. But really, who knows
I was wondering about a fan at one point. That could be cool, pun intended
. I cannot think of anything else neat. Anybody have any ideas? If it is good, maybe the JJP team will use it. I would think they are still working on it and could make changes.
A little while ago Jack said they had various options in mind, from plain, to illuminated, to other stuff like fans. I guess they picked something?
"Interactive to me is that the game triggers the action in the topper" -
These are the words from Jack himself......... so think Fish Tales etc.
It could be a space robot that screams "EXTERMINATE THE DOCTOR!"
Oh wait, that might have been done already.
A Green Witch with a few sayings with slight movement of arms and head inside a globe that represents a crystal ball...... 
NimblePin, how did you get ahold of my sisters pic? Man, you really do have connections. As far as BD's DMD tweaks go...I am imagining something along the lines of Dorothy Does Dallas 
I kid. Its just cool that the machine is progressing and the news like the topper is great. Its turning into one sweet ride and Im actually in the car this time. Hold on Luke lets go jump something! Like that topper. Yeehaw!
Quoted from NimblePin:Well I know what BD's topper will look like...
Now with, animated "shimmy/jiggle" action!
Swap my FT topper ? 
This is really shaping up to be an epic pin, can't wait for you lucky dogs that are getting one to post pics and comments!!
"Interactive" is a very broad term. Several toppers seen in the past have already been interactive to some degree. Even the TAF topper is considered interactive because of the light show when you start multiball. That being said, why even mention an interactive topper? Isn't it pretty much a given by now?
If you are trying to sell something you list everything it will have on it. A topper is not standard on pins. The only company to compare is Stern. How many do you see in the wild with toppers?
If you buy a new car, why do they list wheels and engines as standard equipment. They even list the alternator. There has not been a car without an alt in decades. If it has an engine it will have an alt.
