The reason I ask is becuase I have become hooked on fixing pins... but what about a pin that has a crapped out backglass and playfield? It would suck to junk a working pin just because the art is shot...

So I want to start a little survey...

I will ask the same question for 2 types of pins...

1- Regardless what pin it is, if you had an EM pin, what theme would you customize it with? Preferably a theme relative to the era of the pin if it is culture-related. I wouldn't want to see a Metallica pin when it is an EM... doesn't fit well... Led Zeppelin would fit better... Can be anything... name it.

2- Same question as above but on an SS pin. What theme would you want on a pin? Can be older, can be generic (not related to a band or movie or anything dated), can even be a new twist on an old favorite, like a new Haunted House pin. Name it.

If I ever fall upon a cheap pin with dead art, I might just go ahead and do this.

Now don't get any ideas... I am by no means ToMMy... I don't do electronics... but I am pretty good with a paintbrush and carpentry... .. and busted pins can be found easy.

I know what JD3 would say here... a Scottish pin!!! Have the backglass covered with the Scot Wall of Fame... Jackie Stewart... Sean Connery... Scotty from Star Trek... Fat Bastard!! With bagpipes playing as background music!

A zombie theme would rock. I'm really surprised no one ever made a zombie themed pin before. It would even fit on an EM, considering zombie movies have been around since the 60s.

Where's my Transformers pin?  

A Zombie theme would be very cool..

and isn't MM just a Quest for the Holy Grail ripoff?  

If we're talking doing up an EM with new art work, I would love to see a Gum Ball Rally pin.

Great movie. Very dated, but still alot of fun. When I finally got rid of the VCR, I had to go out and replace my VHS copy with a DVD The poster would make a great backglass -- talking about the cartoon poster. Love that style of poster/artwork, brings me way back.

I definitely would need a Van Halen machine. Dave-era only, the machine would need to be Sammy-free.

Their heyday was 79-84, so it would have to be an SS. Fits in very nicely with Nugent, Kiss and the Stones from the same period.

Only a DMD pin with quips from the movie would give it justice.

The zombie game could be called 'BRAINS!'.

That would be... killer!

TOMB RAIDER with an awsome backglass.
