I'd like to thank SilentSurfer for making this possible:

Gives the nameplate a unique/different look from the original.

Just remove the T2 name with nail polish remover and apply the adhesive

Looks great! Glad you like it. Nice collection.

I like that namelplate from Silent Surfer!

I've got more...

All received, very impressive especially after a clean!

What's the story on the Endoskull with the silver/grey(?) teeth? Is that a custom?

Do you also have the HCG clean version (with the T2 not the T2-3D plaque)?

Any leads on the Timeless Collectibles version?

 

[tnaig001]

HCG's skulls all have 3D nameplates. They do not come with 2D nameplates.

Are you talking to me?

Hi Spewer

The endo with the silver/grey/dirty teeth is the Combat version of the HCG. They are a bit more rare as they don't come up on ebaY that often.
I think the endo with the T2-3D (Universal Studios Hollywood) plaque is identical to the clean version of the HCG...just the plaque is different.
The bottom of the bust does read differently though-
"XFX STUDIOS"
Please see the pics ..

I think what tnaig was implying by "all skulls have 3D nameplates" is that the lettering is raised and not something flat.

Also-
I have had no luck finding a Timeless Collectibles endoskull.

But I did manage to secure a 2nd ICONS version

XFX skulls came from the same molds as the Toynami and HCG!
They are all identical..

That is the HCG Battle Damaged version still for sale on some stores.

hi my brothers of the chrome


I think there might be two versions of the HCG BD skulls. The newer BD versions seem to have the star shaped BD paint rather than FelMar's dirtied up paint job.

I prefer FelMar's version which i think looks better

Thanks for that, Toni
just a different name on the bottom and the plaque!

good to know, tnaig...
I had no idea as I was thinking a battle damaged piece is a battle damaged piece
But indeed, there could be a variation in the newer ones!

no way m8! If one of the guys gets overly excited and knocks over the skull in the midst of play my heart would be wrenched

good point!

don't let people who get angry easily play !

 

[Toni Plutonij]

Well, considering that some pinball machines aren't all that stable (they move when you play), you can also tackle it...I'd choose a bit more stable place to display the skull, however, if you fixate it somehow, then it's a real sight to behold!

And honestly, WOW, I love that pinball!
