I have seen alot of Discs of Tron marquees that are warped to varying degrees. Does anyone know if it was the heat of the bulbs (in the environmental or upright) in the marquee that contributed to the problem or the storing of the game in a non-climate controlled environment?

So, I took a hair dryer to mine and used some cookie sheets with water jugs on them to get this thing amazingly flat. Well, not perfectly flat, but compared to how it started, it's pretty darn flat. I thought the marquee was trash before I took the hair dryer to it. It had a serious C-Shape going on. So, yeah, this works!
 
First of all, John, I haven't heard the story on yours...cough it up!

Second, that sounds like a great idea, but don't go any hotter than a hair dryer (i.e., a heat gun). After doing that, keep it pressed down, like suggested, for a while until it completely cools.

Mine's in good shape, so I would guess it's a combo of marquee light heat and storage.
