I designed this 2x3 magnet to help people understand how to switch between Millipede and Centipede on my Millipede cab with the Braze multi kit. Just stick it on the control panel - no permanent damage to the cab. I know what you're saying - "It looks good, but does it work?". Sadly, no. Most people still ask how to switch between games. But it does look good. ;) $5 shipped (I have several).

I will take one, do you have any for Missel command, Space Invaders, etc.. ?

Cool, thanks - although I should have pointed out that the $5 shipped price was for the lower 48 states... let me check on my shipping cost to the Great White North and I'll let you know.

As far as the other games - I only have the Multipede, that's why I made this one. I'll research some of the other Braze kits and see what I can come up with.
 
The Vector Labs multi games (esp. Star Wars) need something of this ilk. "Hold left thumb trigger 2s, release 1s, hold right thumb trigger 2s, release to switch." It's actually a really good method, but if you didn't read the manual you'd probably never figure it out.
 
Brilliant! Just ordered one. Can't wait.

Throwing in my vote for an Exidy 440 kit magnet. If Multipede is confusing, the Exidy one confuses the hell out of a lot of people.

With the Exidy multi and with people over, I have to just set it on a particular game for the night. It's too complicated to have people do it.

At least too complicated for my friends. :D
 
Thanks guys for all the orders. Everything that's been paid has shipped.

I'm working on others, but I'm no Barry Allen so it may take a bit...

Here's my preliminary design for the Space Invaders multi:

I like it, let us know when it's done and I'll put in an order.

With the change game button hooked up to one coin slot button and the credit button hooked up to the other you'd think it would be simple.......... guess what, it's not!!!!!!

A magnet for this would be pretty awesome because I could stick it right to the coin door or the control panel.

Actually Torin, I have one of your old machines, so yes, the buttons are simple but complex to some.

I am doubling my vote for Exidy kit magnets.
 
Thanks again to everyone for their orders! I started a new thread here:

That covers everything I'll have available (currently Multipede, Missile Command, and Space Invaders). Unfortunately I've had to raise the price to $5.50 shipped since Paypal is not shy about taking their cut :mad:.
