How do the Happ Translucent Pushbuttons compare to the buttons at fxbuttons.com.  I'm interested in blue which fxbuttons shows out of stock.

Thanks

Happ is the exclusive of IL product in North & South America. How Shawnzilla obtained the product first is his secret. I knew as soon as this stirred up Happ would find out. Happ did put in for that button over 2 years ago but at that time there must not have been enough interest but guess what they found out there is now.

I guess they are the exact same.

Don't forget Dream Arcades sells translucent pushbuttons as well. They  have a frosted top and are less $$$ than Happ's.

Yes. Good point, they are concave. I sometimes forget because they are less convex than the convex pushbuttons Happs sells.

Not sure if they have a link on the main Happ site, but PonyBoy carries them.  I may be incorrect in calling them "Happ" buttons.. but they are the same exact buttons that shawnzilla has, and they are identical to the Happ buttons, even down to the iL logo.
