That Alien Syndrome topper is so awesome. Looks great, man.

I'll contribute. I have this big-ass skull that sits by my bar. Last night, I got a great idea:

Best idea ever. The hand on the HOTD topper to the left of it looks like it's actually his. Looks like he's climbing up and over the game to eat your ass. Awesome.

How about an 8 x 10 photo of the 1980 USA hockey team signed by captain Mike Eruzione on top of an Olympic Hockey pinball?

Have my wife to thank for that one.

I removed this from a Code one dispatch and put it on my crime patrol which fits it nicely

inspired by a fellow KLOVer that had the Frogger board game as a topper, I went out and found this for my DK

(now I don't have to play shoots and ladders with my son any more)

I just have a model kit I need to build.
I need to put my Kong Off light box on it soon.

was it me? here's my frogger topper:

i also have board games on other cabinets (e.g. berzerk, centipede, ...). here's the one on my defender:

for moon patrol i did something different. i found the backlight moon surface (slightly damaged) from a space invaders deluxe (or was it space invaders ii? can't remember!) and mounted it on top of the cabinet.

doesn't the artwork fit perfectly to the marquee art? it's my favorite topper so far, but i have some great ideas already for other games ...

Yep, I am stealing your idea. I have an extra one of these that's been kicking around the Outer Limits for a year now with no real home. How did you attach it? The original metal bracket or did you make one?

Do you guys play these games with this stuff on them? You would think the stuff would be falling off and messing up your games?

the plastic marquee (or whatever you may call it) has three holes in it. i used a countersink tool to make the holes wide / deep enough for the screw heads to "disappear".

for the back, i found some L-brackets which fitted the existing holes perfectly (height-wize), so i attached those L-brackets to the screws and "glued" the three brackets to the cabinet with double-sided tape.

the cabinet is still in its original form, no holes had to be drilled, the topper is fixed to the top safely, but can also be removed easily without leaving any marks!
