Bad Cats Pt 2: Classic Playfield Reproductions - Duration: 15:12.
I have here in front of me two sets of plastics for Bad Cats. The one on your
left, which is my right (I have to remember because everything is upside
down) this side, in any case, came from the Bad Cats that I purchased 10 years ago.
The plastics on this side are reproduction plastics that were produced
by Planetary Pinball, I think. I'll have to look that up again later, but I wanted
to compare the two since I will probably end up replacing most of the plastics in
the pinball machine. And there are a number of things that caught my eye when
I first looked at these pieces. One is that they feel like different material
than the original. I don't know how to really describe it, but the original
plastics feel more, I don't know, they feel like they're made out of a harder
plastic whereas the reproduction pieces kind of feel rubbery in comparison.
Now all of the plastics that were in the reproduction pack all had this white
paper backing and I think that they were all laser-cut as you can see on the back
of the paper, little burn marks all along the edge and as a result of that I think
that we ended up with plastics that had kind of a slightly chamfered edge to it
and I don't know why that would be but the original plastics were fairly sharp
on the edges. I'm not sure exactly what to make of
that particular difference yet, but it was, sorry, it was something that I
noticed. Now the colors, I would say the colors are relatively faithful. It's
really hard to tell. The colors in this particular piece for example. This is the
original and one of the other things is that a lot of the original
plastics are kind of bent, bent out of shape. Let's see if I can show that on the
camera. I don't know if you can see that or not but the original is kind of
bending away from from the reproduction. But the colors... sorry I keep doing
everything upside down... the colors... I got this backwards again. I'll get it
eventually. The colors, they're are a lot paler on the
original but I mean you can attribute a lot of that to fading over time. Also
it's worth noting that if you look at some of the original plastics like this
one particular piece. I don't know if you can see it, but this area, which is
unpainted on the original plastic, has yellowed considerably over the years and
I would assume... I haven't taken the backing paper off of the
reproduction yet to look but I would assume that the reproduction is a lot
clearer than that. So, but anyway, the reason I brought that
up is because the yellowing probably had a lot to do with the fading of the
colors. In addition to the fact that orange and red tend to fade a lot over
the years anyway. Now another thing that I noticed was that the reproduction
plastics were not bent as they needed to be
when compared to the original. Now, here's one of the original plastics. You notice
it has this bent piece right here, it's a 90 degree bend, but if you look on the
reproduction it doesn't have that. It has the part that's sticking out at the end
of the plastic but it hasn't been bent. So presumably if anybody buys this set
of plastics they will have to do all the last-minute bending of the plastics
themselves and they're at least a couple of pieces that are like that. Actually
what's worse now that I think about it is we have this little doghouse plastic,
which is actually two plastics that have been put together, where in the repro set
we have this flat piece, which makes up this two-bend doghouse roof and then this
piece doesn't need any bending, but it has to be screwed on to the front. And
it's also interesting to note that the front piece here... Actually I guess it
does need to be bent because you have this little bend at the bottom here. But
you notice that the color is completely different. I mean, this, I don't think
that this is a fading issue here, I think this is just a difference in the actual
color. So that's kind of odd. And there's another piece here, this little bird in a
cage is supposed to be bent at 90 degrees right here. Sorry, I'm not very
good about making sure camera's in angle. But this bird is bent 90 degrees here
and mounted onto another piece of plastic, I think. Likewise this bird has a
90 degree bend in it right here - I believe it's intended to keep the ball
from going through a specific area. Now that said I think I think they did a
pretty good job on the reproduction plastics and the
more I look at them the more I think that I would be happier for the most
part with the newer plastics just because the original ones that I have
are so thoroughly yellowed and faded and cracked and warped and basically every
imaginable condition that has been applied to them. I mean this this one is
really bad as far as warping you can see how terrible the curve is in this piece.
And as luck would have it I've done enough work in plastics that I actually
have the, oops I should... wait, that's original. I actually have the tool necessary to do
the bending it's basically a flexible heating element. I don't have it with me,
but there's, it's a flexible heating element in a line and you basically just
drape it along the the path where you want to bend so I would like put it
right here and let it warm up the plastic and then bend the plastic
the shape I needed. So I have that option at least but I think that would come as
a surprise to anybody else who were buying these kinds of plastics. So yeah.
And of course this is another original it's smashed right here and bent and
yeah it's not in the greatest of shape. So anyway that's the that's the set of
plastics. Overall like I said that I think they're pretty reasonable
reproduction. I wouldn't say don't get them. If you
have a Bad Cats that's in perfect shape then definitely don't replace the
plastics that you have. You know, maybe buy a set if you want to have some
spares on hand in case they do break, but these are not going to replace your good
plastics. And they do they do give you extras for the slingshot covers, which is
nice. And they give you a little, a couple of extras that have nothing to do with
the game, like these
speaker covers or cutouts, which, it's kind of strange to me considering that
you're not actually getting the plastic that goes in front of the speaker grille
so I'm not sure why we're getting speaker cutouts but that's part of the
package. And there's also a little stand up made from the artwork and in the
pinball machine which I will stick a picture in here at some point. But that's
that's all that I have for the plastics at the moment. I also have stickers, the
replacement art decals, and I purchased the replacement artwork for
the cabinet, which I will be also comparing. Now this is the reproduction
artwork made by Planetary Pinball for Bad Cats that I purchased and it's still
a little bit wrinkled at the moment because I've had it rolled up for the
last couple of weeks as I haven't been ready to put it on yet. But I wanted to
bring it out and kind of show what was in the package. This happens to be for
the coin door and obviously the coin door cutout is not here it would
ordinarily be right around in here and this would go on the front. Now each
piece of artwork is on a very large sheet. I'm not sure what size it's, it's
very large size, how about that? And you have crop marks... Let's move this where you can see
it... crop marks in the corners to indicate where it's supposed to be cut.
Now I'm not entirely sure if you're expected to cut it and place it on to
the cabinet and then trim, which seems the most likely, or if there is another
approach that they expect you to do. I haven't done any research into that
yet. But anyway unfortunately my original Bad
Cats is not in the best of shape so I can't really do a very good comparison
of this versus the original but I'm pretty sure that all of the artwork that
is on the original is in fact on this particular piece of art to replace it
with. Now that's the coin door they also include these pieces of reproduction for
the sides of the back box for the cabinet. Now I don't know... In fact, I'm
thinking about it and I'm not sure just how many pinball machines have adhesive
stickers for the artwork on the sides of the the back box. Seems a bit unusual but
I guess putting putting these stickers on the side of your back box is probably
easier than trying to touch up all the paint depending on what kind of state
it's in. Nevertheless, it's part of the part of the whole package. Now the big
part for me, both literally and figuratively I suppose, is this upside
down piece of cabinet artwork. Let's see if I can find a better one. I'll just turn this
around.
All right so this is the side art for the cabinet itself and as you can
see it's quite large obviously it has to fit the entire cabinet. So again the art
looks good but I'm not really happy with the color
unfortunately and I'll show you why that is.
Now that artwork on my cabinet has faded considerably however there are spots
where the artwork was not exposed at all to light and see in the corner here this
is where one of the legs was installed and it has this bright fluorescent
orange and if you look at the reproduction artwork it's this burnt
orange kind of color that's almost pink when you look at it on the camera I
think that's just a white balance issue. I tried to set it before but anyway so
not really happy with the colors in the reproduction artwork
however compared to this nasty yellow it's still better and I suspect that the
color and the glossiness, as you can see a lot of reflections here, of the artwork,
on the new reproduction artwork, is actually because of weathering
protection that was put on it. I'm not really 100% sure about that but I
suspect that that has a lot to do with it. And once again everything is
upside-down because I flipped the camera around. Sorry about that. So anyway at
some point I will be installing this artwork onto the pinball machine
and I will show that process as well but for right now I'm only just kind of
looking at at what I have.
