I'm somewhat interested to try them but hardly see the point, Sanwa buttons feel just right imo

My point is is that a prototype is done to catch these kind of errors before a production run. Now they had to alter the offer slightly and eat the resulting costs. Heck, just getting their hands on the switches should have made them question the suitability of the pins.

The OCD in me would go nuts trying to align all those hexagonal buttons on a panel.  Round is better for me  ;)

Agreed.  :cheers:

With the hex shaped buttons, I think it would be eye popping on the right project. I'm thinking something heavy and industrial like Rick's Doom'd cabinet - (which i don't know if we will ever see finished).

I was interested in trying them until I read your post.  Yeah that would be bad. 

pinballjim:
Couldn't you just clamp a straight edge across the front of a row of them and then tighten them?  I don't see alignment being more than a 2 minute problem.
