New Pinball Backglass
« on: February 07, 2010, 02:05:47 PM »
Here is the latest developements, more than likely a done deal for German guys & possibly finally getting WMS approval for glass license with Illinois Pin Ball. I got my fingers crossed that hopefully they (WMS) see the posibilities to help out with older pins. http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.pinball/browse_thread/thread/51ea377cecc73b51?hl=en#

Sounds promising, good luck with the IPB/Wms approvals...hope it goes ahead, it would be great for Pinball to have more high quality backglasses available for the early solid state Bally, Williams and Stern titles.. #*#

Great stuff John, there's lots of older Williams glasses really neded, loking forward to seeing this progress.

Wayne Gillard has hit an all time low with his email threats to me. The latest is to cripple me personally. Here is more info:

Friday I should have pictures of the finished Flash Gordon test samples to show. Hopefully this gets the final approval from WMS & I move forward with licensing with Illinois Pin Ball.

John - Pay no attention.

Just keep working on your projects and contributing to the hobby. We need more good people like yourself.

(as soon as I get home I'll be cracking a VB or two in your honor !)

Here are the pictures from one of the test glass. My pictures are the lit in head ones, the others are from Mike at CPR. Kevin will see the samples this weekend. Learned some stuff from this expensive test. http://s36.photobucket.com/albums/e28/greatwichjohn/Flash%20Gordon%20Test%20Samples/
