Williams sticker for speaker plastic?

But a high quality sticker at a price that includes a good margin of profit to cover licences I don't think is an unreasonable expectation. Even a 3D stick on badge to get the original look closer, I probably would have paid handsomely for a nice badge.

No doubt.  I never was asking for a free sticker.  In fact, my first question was if someone was selling one.  It isn't so much the $99 that I object to, but having to deal with the push-on nuts and potentially damaging my speaker box is the least attractive option.  If PPS wanted to sell the front as an upgrade, they should have used normal nuts to attach the the rest of the speaker box to the front plastic.

PPS:
We have a solution which is a version with the Williams Gold. That is the solution, a sticker is not the same and will be correct for the game. Also, the panels used to be $270 retail, but since we've re-run them they are $99.


thanks,

I have a question.  If PPS has the license to make "Williams" logos and sell them knowing the intention of a customer them on a MMR then why can these same logos not be placed on the machine at production?  Is there some legalistic babble I am not understanding about licensed products?  I know very little about trademark, license, etc laws.

PPS:
The Williams speaker Panel is a legitimate replacement part, so we are allowed to sell them.


We are not allowed to make games with the Williams Trademark (we are allowed to make games with the Bally Trademark).

That is interesting.  So, I assume when you bought the licensing for both names these terms were agreed to at that time.  I guess that makes sense.


How would a TZr work out?  Could you build the machine just like the original machine since it says "Bally" on it?


Interesting topic.
