I would ask them, but they are probably sick and tired of answering that...

I know Xenon is coming out soon... as well as Fathom. I was wondering what playfield after that. We see a crapload of designers with designs, but nothing concrete coming out.

I am praying for a Pinbot playfield... I think it would be a good seller. Most are pretty worn.

Afaik, they are currently backlogged with designs that are completed but need to go into production.  I was told they have over many projects in the queue and that they are scheduled over the next couple of years.  Look for Fathom, EB, EBD, F2k and some system 11's for playfields.

Pinbot is not one of them.

I am asking for High Speed, but I know through Kevin that the artist Jeff has been delayed again and won't start on it until early next year... I hope, I hope...

Hmm... I wish I had the resources to back them up and make more playfields... It would be fun!

That sucks. I remember Pinbot being high up on their old voting list. Oh well... looks like I will be doing mine myself.

Come on F2K.. Papa needs a new playfield.

What's funny is that they were thinking of offering a "full meal deal" consisting of a playfield, plastics set and backglass. I don't know if that will still happen now...

I guess that Mike and Kevin got surprised with the high demand... considering they do this on their free time, it will be rather difficult... Man, I wish I could get the same equipment they have and back them up... I would love to do it.

AFAIK, Kevin actually quit his full time job and CPR is now his full time gig.

They are still planning on offering the "full meal deal" once the F2K PF is out, last I heard it was going to be Q1 2009.

I already have the repro backglass and plastics (thanks, Cooke!)... Just need a PF!

I've done a little screenprinting on wood. It's not terribly difficult. Why not build your own printing press and give it a go?

I tried that. The balls kept falling off the t-shirt.

My grandfather used to do commercial screen printing (1960 - 80 vesrions of large format printing!), I wish I had tapped him for more knowledge.  He's still alive, but just too hampered by a stroke to pass on the knowledge he used to.

CPR confirmed to me at Allentown they will be making Tales Of The Arabian Knights.  They were even handing out large posters of the CNC layout of the playfield with every purchase.
