“Let’s do what we do best, Scoob — play pinball.” (Ok maybe it was “eat”.)

I like what Spooky did with the launch button on the Collector’s Edition of Scooby Doo, so I’ve emulated that but in my Rocket City Pinball 3D button style!

This button can be used to replace the launch button — or the start button! — for all three versions of the game.

I acquired a beautiful translucent turquoise filmanent for the background on Scooby’s dog tag, and printed the border & letters in a lovely shiny gold. The border has a nice filleted edge and the letters have a spherically-rounded surface. They are permanently fused together using a mid-print filament change.

Standard & Blood Sucker Edition owners (or CE owners buying this as a Start button) will require the button + full housing.

Collector’s Edition owners — if choosing to upgrade their existing launch button — need only by the button by itself; you will replace the outer lens in a similar fashion as shown in the video below; no electrical work will be required.

– If using this for a Start button on any version, you’ll note that Spooky uses a smaller, recessed start button (unlike the now-standard ~1.5″ start buttons used by Stern and JJP). The complete housing assembly for this button will fully replace it and will cover the counterbore in the cabinet, leaving you with a clean installation of the new larger button.
– If using this as a launch button on the Standard or Blood Sucker edition, you will remove the original round full assembly and replace it with this new housing.
In either of the above two situations, some basic electrical work will be required, due to Spooky’s wiring configuration — your choice of either cutting/stripping two wires and crimping on terminals, or simple desolder/resolder of two wires. Reference my DIY guide here:
