More than likely a return to Expo 2010. I hope Stern is still in business, since times are real brutal in the pinball market. He should of tried harder with Costco, & made a bunch of pins. Inventory a bunch of each title for sales, Gary really blew that opprotunity for the Holiday Season & sales to home owners. Still don't understand running 100 pins at a time, have the balls to inventory your own product. Its a totally different market from the old days where you ran a title once & moved on.

I haven't seen Wayne's product yet. Sounds like he has a good chunk of change in that new printer. Hopefully he has someone skilled to use it. Quality control can be a real bitch at times. My last bunch of color transperant films for Seawitch were defective film, had 4 so far & I wrecked a good one when I forgot to clean off the adhesive. The surface tension of film to glass is amazing. So hopefully the rest aren't bad. You can't see the defect (wrinkle in film, manufacturing defect until you install it).

Anyone have any idea what printer & brand Wayne is using. I take it that he more than likely got one for rolled materials. Not one that can print to wood like the color span 9840uv printer.
