Quoted from Jetzxi:So who found these marks?
Mine has some little dimples there. I have seen a flat gold one that had them too. It may have been a repro but looked original. i really don't know. Maybe that's why these were 80 instead of 100

Quoted from LilRocky:Just got mine in today. Comparison pictures between the original and the repro.
yeah, see. dimples on the original too. the shiny gold just accents it. I don't care on mine. the shiny gold eagle more than makes up for it.
I like the new one much better!
From what I understand, these are being made from the original molds. I'm guessing Gene owns them. You can see the "dimples" in the original bird. I'm guessing they got exaggerated a bit in the new run, due to different materials and technique.

The new one looks much better! What is the mounting like for these? I don't know if they ship with the IPB one or I'll have to source/hack one myself.

Sorry, I was giving Mike a hard time. He said he found them when truly it was his wife that noticed them.

Hey at least I bought my wife a pinball machine! Andd she did help me light my WOZ playfield and translite she just doesn't like playing the machines.

Sorry Mike, I thought you were poking fun at the fact that mine does not enjoy playing.
Quoted from Soapman:I would not sweat the dimples. I have a solid resin one and it has dimples. From what I know this is the one they took the mold from. I could be wrong but that is what I have found out. It is heavy and soild.
I know I need to dust
Actually, The resin mold was taken from one like these Illinois pinball reproductions. Gene owns the original Williams mold. The resin mad amusements topper is a recast.
