Looking for a set of apron decals for Jungle Queen 1977. Cannot seem to get any tried several US stores after I have tried those in AUD.

Any ideas?

Nobody is making these at the moment - I have contacted PBR and the guy that makes his parts and they don't have this on the radar at present. Best bet would be place a wanted to buy add on www.mrpinball.com or one on RGP

On the subject of decals,I remember when i was a boy i used to buy transfers for model planes,you use to put them in water as well as rego labels,wonder how they were made,would be ideal for aprons with small writing (eg Gottlieb).Being a lot thinner than decals,reckon they would be less obvious than thick decals.

Pinball Rescue in QLD used to make a wide variety of decals for most games from the 1960 - 80 era.

Can't understand why somebody like PBR hasn't made these  !@#

Water slide transfers - real easy to make!!

Get a piece of paper and soak in wallpaper paste or similar - basically a water soluble glue.

Tape this down on waxed paper to a board to prevent curling when drying
 Spray with a clear finish - lacquer is good
once dry - use this paper  to print off what you want.
Then spray with lacquer again.

Once its all dry just dip the paper into water and the glue dissolves - the 2 layers of lacquer slide off with the print sandwiched in the middle - then apply to whatever it is that requires it - spray with a sealer.

Simple huh??

Marc do you have the decals for Jungle Queen apron? If so, how much are these?

I can save some time working and enjoy the machine instead!

Cheers   <.>

Just hold tight for a few more weeks....once Pinball Rescue in Queensland start selling on the 1st of July I'm sure that they will be selling their decals for the trays again. That would be your best bet and they look a million dollars once done  *%*
