Hammer of the Godz - New CPR Conversion Kit

But not deep purple lol
$1699.... Yikes!!!
That's just for the playfields, 2 plastics sets,and 2 backglass. You still need cab decals plus all the boards from what I gather. I guess it's realistic though.
Maybe Vectors may now see a small price hike ? Or maybe not. 
Looks awesome. Almost tempted. Though I have been drinking 
Is it just me or does the image on the Hammer of the Godz logo look like a c*ck and b&lls?
Yup, the hammer is phallic. And I don't know much about Led Zep so completely misread the name as "HAMMER OF THE GONZ"!
As a VECTOR owner I of course think this is utter sacrilege but also think it's utter cr@p. Photoshop playfield? Awful. I do like the overall appearance, gothic/Norse purple but the theme is terrible. And yes, it's expensive. I quickly totted-up the essentials: CPR kit is $1,699, but you also need decals ($250-300), X-Pin display ($200+), sound card, e.g., PinSound ($300), custom legs/rails/apron ($300+), laser cut ramps ($100+?), Alltek Ultimate MPU ($200), custom flippers, rubbers, LEDs (another $200-300+). As rough guide that's a minimum of $3,300!!!
Plus the purchase price of a reasonable VECTOR (£350, say another $500). Frankly, I think the designer and CPR are living in Cloud Cuckoo Land if they think they're going to sell any more than half a dozen of these. I sincerely hope I'm right.

If we set aside Fathom backglasses, CPR does a lot of good work.
But this is complete and utter crap. To combine the definitive heavy metal band, with some of the most iconic record artwork ever produced and the beautiful Vector into this whore of a game defies belief and is an insult to all concerned. Beautiful Vector is not seen as the best player's game so why use it as a donor ?
The playfield is about the worst photoshop crap you could fear for.
Purple side art ? I actually think the side art is the most offensive thing about this. I know nothing about art, I was utterly useless at it yet in 2 minutes i have better themes for the cabinet art. Why, oh why, oh why do you get this ....
When here is your backbox art ..
Here is your side art, just the zeppelin
.
Or maybe this on a pure black background ...
Here is your backglass
I wonder what bozo will spend all that money, desecrate a vector, spend man months of labour on it

So I take it you don't like it Dave ?

no compared to WOZ. now *that* is offensive.

And the worst part? What are LED ZEPPELIN famous for? Well, that's a no-brainer - classic rock tracks. Does this conversion feature so much as a single twang of LZ awesomeness? No. Just a vague, nothing-to-do-with-us-nudge-nudge-wink-wink, suggestion that the builder could load up the custom sound module with appropriate tracks. EPIC FAIL. This is worse than PREDATOR not having a license. At least they had the balls to stick Arnie on their game even if they weren't allowed to!
This should be trampled underfoot
I'm not even gonna compete with that one. Jon is the winner of this LedZedRefComp
