He would like to build some , but doesn't have the license to produce them . Trying to get license but said they don't want to see just sketches of what a game might look like they want to see an actual game . The one at MGC is all foam mock-up .

Post by: swinks on April 13, 2014, 08:52:14 AM: apparently he is working on the ramp designs while at the show so at first glance looks early 80's but ramps are coming.

Post by: Slash on April 13, 2014, 10:15:44 AM: That's looking very cool, love the artwork. Will be interesting to see how it comes together with ramps.

Would be cool to see a vid with the screen animations.

Gee that's tough to get the licence, basically spend all the dollars on designing and developing the pin to show them with no guarantee you will get the nod for the licence.

I'm guessing copyright issues being avoided.

It is a custom machine, he can put any images he likes on the game - assuming it is a "one off". If he mass produces the game, then there will be issues. Majority of fans won't by the game without the original members.

Post by: Strangeways on June 12, 2014, 09:36:47 AM: I'm a KISS fan. I would not go near anything with the cover band artwork. The effort is amazing, but the result speaks for itself. Those legs are absolutely abysmal !

Glad it is a "one off" machine.

Post by: oldskool1969 on June 12, 2014, 07:10:27 PM: Ther real legs from pic were a lovely chrome, not like the sketches, no big deal.
Will a new, young punter play this game? Probably not. Cashed up bogans? *%* probably %.%
I would love a game, but to own is a different story. If I saw it on site, mmmmm no, in this generation a guy with makeup and high heels, well, to each their own.
Like the LCD position though ^^^
