So when we set up pinball bazaar, we wanted to offer spares and mods that you couldn’t get anywhere else. It’s been quiet as we’ve been working on a couple of amazing projects, with some really great people in pinball. The first thing we can talk about is this... working with @stumblor has been crazy good, and Brian and Swinks are unreal. We have also been working with @Colywobbles too of course, and another designer who has worked with the Star Wars licence (Hasbro) and with the Star Trek licence (CBS) - more on that later.

This group as well, it’s been an incredible journey. we’ve tried to make the whole thing both artistically pleasing, true to the theme and interactive. That’s not easy. Whatever will be will be with the sales. The experience to date has been worth every penny. Everyone went into this wanting to make “some cool sh*t.” - I think we have done that.

This has been an exciting project and great to work with swinks again. Can't wait to see the end result of all the hard work.

Dave is happy [emoji1787][emoji23] and agree - swinks is a true pinball hero.

Brian Allen is a lovely guy and a complete star... 👍

His artwork is top drawer and he’s been super excited by this project, when we went to him with the details of the topper, how it interacted and the work we’d done with the designer from film and TV he was in.

Getting people who, I think, are at the top of the mod community together under one project, their timelines etc. Has been really challenging but the project has made it easier, there’s been a tonne of good will from people like @swinks - @stumblor and @Colywobbles to prototype things, test things, heck even getting CNC routing sorted is no easy thing (and yes the price of wood has gone up. Considerably of late).

Then there are elements that just take time. With a BOM in with parts in the hundreds. A build time of over an hour. There’s a lot to consider 😂
 
I have no idea you had done them dood - but Chief Petty Officer Stumblor you are now promoted to full true Pinball Hero Stumblor.

(the jury did deliberate on whether fixing CFTBL's was worthy of Pinball Hero Junior grade or full true pinball hero).
 
"and another designer who has worked with the Star Wars licence (Hasbro) and with the Star Trek licence (CBS)"... hmm I wonder who that could be? :D

Loving the Pinball Pecking Order League Table @Neil McRae has been tabulating... Is there going to be a golden flipper award each year?

Fair play to the guys working on this.

A UK based company making mods?!?!?!

No import duty????

What is not to like.

If James will buy me a GnR - I will gladly pay full price for one of these toppers :)

There is no import duty on mods.
