When compared side to side with original MDF jokes from guys like pinballjim and Malenko this one is sub-par. Try to make them yourself rather than piggy back someones else's craptastic job. This poor joke really ruins the look of your post.

I can't believe the nitpicking going on here. I'm as cautious as anybody else when it comes to restoring and shopping out machines, but in a darker room where pins are generally played, you'll never notice a minor difference in a color's shade or if a gradient is slightly less pronounced.

Now that would be annoying, I agree. I haven't tried their repro plastics before. Generally I hunt down NOS sets.

I was just messin with you, however, talking about someones health issues really shows the poor attitude you have. Basically, you do far more to embarrass yourself than I need put forth effort.
Heres a much closer look at just how far off the color blues are. You can see that Most of the colors are somewhat close. Even though they are Not accurate to how the game is supposed to look... you could get away with it. However, the navy blue is not able to be dealt with... its just too much of a spectrum jump.
You can also see they opted with 5 colors instead of 6. Probably to save money. They omitted the red pool, and changed it to orange... and their orange is putrid and ugly as well.
You can see in each blue, the red, green, and blue values stacked up. They are numerically way the hell off. This isnt some simple 2 or 3 shade difference.
Also overlayed some picture parts on the new piece so you can see a closer comparison.

First, this isnt a small color shift. Its a HUGE shift.
Second, you can EASILY see the difference, no matter What kind of lighting. Dont know if you realize this... but slingshots are actually LIT UP with lightbulbs! Ugg.
Its like people are completely oblivious to anything at all. ::)
