Customizing the theme of your pin

What game are you going to trash? :p

I was thinking of doing something similar with the space shuttle playfield when i get the new one.

Don't do it.

I've gotta agree here...F-14's a REALLY popular game...

I mean, if you can find a trashed out playfield and use THAT to do it...sure...go for it. I think that's a good theme for a pin....all the long-ass lasers kinda lend themselves to straight line shots like pinball would have anyways...I think it could work. :)
 
Lots of custom pinball machines exist, I try to keep a list here:

Hope this gives you some ideas, you can contact some people if you have specific questions about what to look for.. don't underestimate it, it's a lot of work.
And don't forget to mark where all posts go before you put down a printed full mylar as you won't see the holes anymore :)

As to the question if you should use your F14 or not, that's up to you to decide.
If it's in mint condition then maybe not, if it has some playfield wear, then yes why not.
Better use a game that's fun to play as source than using one that's no fun :)
And in the end it's your machine, you can do what you want with it.. if you want to retheme your MM or CC then you can..
 
Keep in mind that it's going to take an insane amount of work to make it look even half-assed good. We're talking hundreds of hours.
