What to do with these? To say i'm disappointed with the quality of these is an understatement !!! They look like they got the colour palette from donald trump and asked their 5 year old to paint them after play school.....
Option 1 - Burn them
Option 2 - Return them
Option 3 - See if someone handy with the artist brush want a go at making them look half decent and more in keeping with the originals
I'd rather use my broken originals than these!! Anyone on here fancy a go at repainting them????

I recognise them boulders I bought from Germany I sent mine straight back they are nothing like the original plus the colour is crap!
Put my damaged ones back on.
I couldn’t get the red lamp cover through the hole I’m wondering if you have bought what I sent back.

Bought from pinball centre. Not cheap either
@myPinballs I got a replacement plastic from Pinball Center a while ago; horribly disappointed in the quality and especially the colours. Emailed them regarding this, no reply months on..
Repro on the left, original on the right

Cheaply made I thought, I have Cliffys on the mountains and the rocks don’t sit flat like the originals do another reason I sent them back, does the red lamp cover fit through the hole ? The one they sent me had a repair underneath and lamp cover would not fit.

Sounds familiar, i'll have to check it. The thing that annoys me more than anything is the picture of what you are buying looks correct, but then you receive something totally different!
It’s the colour of the two boulders that annoyed me the most a three year old could have done a better job at nursery.
It’s the only thing on my playfield I would love to get replaced a full set but no one has them apart from !
I must say yours is looking amazing great work.
Genuine boulder sets should be coming available soon
Won’t use Pinball Centre unless absolutely necessary anymore - disappointed by poor quality stuff far too many times. Sad really.

Test vid of my lamp chase board redesign
Few things to sort but making progress with it. Watchdog and power side all working. Some reversed outputs to fix and an annoying timing issue to resolve
