Something is unique about this coin door. Can you spot it?
Chris:
If it were plastic, it probably wouldn't be to hard to retrofit real illuminated reject inserts by the end user... no need for Randy to do it and increase the costs...
From a graphic standpont, here are the couple of things that jumped out at me:
- Where the reject inserts meet the bezel, it seems like there should be some sort of border to suggest the slight gap between them.
- This might be personal preference, but most coin door locks I see use a barrel lock with a more conical bezel.
Are you thinking of also doing this in an Over/Under style? (Isn't this style usually used in cocktails?)
Great work!

Chris:
Oh, and there's something wrong with the shadow on the right coin slot.
Please don't take these as criticisms, though... this looks fabulous!

The peice is near perfect! There are a few things that don't look "exact", but it is a sticker, not an authentic coin door!
I would take one, or two, as is!
Thanks
Chris:
One thing someone could do with this sticker is to mount two rectangular illuminated buttons from Happ where the coin slots would be with appropriate laser-printed overlays inside, and wire these buttons to your coin inputs. They wouldn't look exact, but they would give you the appropriate feel... and I think having that pair of red lights at knee-level is just part of the arcade experience...

Yeah, the red lights would definately add to the experience! Amazing, you start out with these projects saying you will only do bare bones, then you get wrapped up in all kinds of cool extras!!
