Space Invaders Pin Topper
« on: July 22, 2012, 08:45:11 PM »
I don't usually care one way or the other for pinball toppers but thought the one on this machine looks very cool

Anybody know if these were originally with the machine?

There was no factory topper with Space Invaders. That's the Classicplayfields topper that came with the repro plastics set. Looks excellent.

I have one on mine, and it's awesome. Comes with the repro plastics and it's expensive but worth it. They are getting quite rare to acquire, and I had to get mine from Norway

That's great! I love the art work on this game and the topper really adds to it. You must get a lot of comments when people see the game for the first time.  $#$

I don't much go for toppers either, but that is awesome! Might be a bit too much for the little kids though....

That's why I moved my Space Invaders on. It gave my son nightmares.

Hmmmm-did you have to think that through before deciding which to move on?  &&
