    Default Classic Thunderbirds Pachi Slot Topper

    I have finally finished a slot topper. It took longer than I thought, the new baby and remodeling of our house have been killing me for time. Here are some pics of the Thunderbirds Topper mounted to the machine. Theres also a pic of my son will be two on Saturday puting tokens in the machine. I will be selling this on EBAY sometime next week. If it dosen't sell I'm keeping it. I also have blank slot cups in stock ready for graphics. Any ideas of what you guys and girls would like to see on them. Any feedback would be appreciated.

    As usual great graphics! I wish you could devote more time and crank out a few more for the more popular themes, King camel, Sindbad... etc.
    I know that time is precious, all to well. We go back to work in oh 11.75 hours from right now.

    Thanks for all the comments. I plan on making many various pachi toppers, at least all of the popular machines. This topper was a lighted store display sign. It was sanded smooth, primed twice, painted three coats of blue and finally sprayed with a clear gloss acrylic. I have one other sign like this, I'm thinking of making it a Speed Racer or a Beast Sapp.

    Really Nice looking Topper!


    You've certainly got an eye for detail!

    I'm surprised you want to part with it!!

    I really don't want to part with it, but I bought the sign with my business account to sell it. But if it does not sell past my reserve on Ebay, I will keep it. I have $50 dollars invested in it, not including my time drawing and designing it.

    oh I wish I was that artistic - but I wouldn't part with it!

    I hope you set a real high reserve price then!

    Isnt it illegal to sell your son who is two on EBAY?? You could consider putting son up for adoption! Joking apart.... what an amazing sign....like it lots, well done.

    I think a set of ten would work for most people, exspecially the members with over the top gamerooms (casino) like yourself. Your videos are also great keep up the good work. I will list ten and five cups at a time, this should keep the Pachination happy!

    The PachiTalk auctions would be a GREAT place for that.
    And it would help support the site, too.

    Lookin' forward to it!!!

    Devospeed, you mentioned in another thread about your need for something to go by, like perhaps bellyglass.

    Someone else (my memory fails me, sorry) mentioned taking pictures of bellyglass. Would that help?

    I could supply you with 21 different ones, and wiith Luckydog and all the rest of us, we could probably give you enough different ones to keep you busy for years!

    I was thinking he could start with some of the more popular ones, a safe market I would assume.
