Bit of a pointless thread but I couldn't contain myself and the Mrs isn't interested so I had to share it with you guys.
I bought a Matchbox diecast stealth fighter plane the other week with the idea of adding it to my pin, I drilled out the pop rivets holding it together, stripped down a frosted LED, added some wires and added it behind the cockpit screen and glued it in place. then drilled 2 holes for mounting and wire passage and re-assembled it. Then I got some thick polished stainless wire, cut it to size, bent it round at both ends and screwed one end into the plane, the other under a screw holding the wire ramp down and ran the wires under plastics stealthily and down an existing hole in the playfield and to an existing GI chain.
Results=
Im pretty pleased with it, pictures abit cr@p as its only on my phone but it looks like it was always supposed to be there and makes the playfield abit more interesting in my opinion. It can easily be removed if I or the next owner doesn't want it as nothing is permanent.
That is all. Thanks for reading!
