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

Replacement 3D Start button for Spooky’s Scooby Doo — modeled to look like the Mystery Machine’s spare tire cover!

Manufacturing of this button requires four mid-print filament changes — permanently fusing it all together — to give it the cartoony look of the flower-embossed tire cover.  It contains two separate metallic orange filaments to give the flower a pleasant sheen and differentiate the petals from the center, while using just a bit of black to give it the hand-drawing-like outline. The button face has a nice filleted edge, and the face of the flower has a spherically-curved surface.

This button can be used to replace the start button for all three versions of Scooby Doo (Standard, Blood Sucker, or Collector’s Edition).

Due to the different cabinet art designs, two different green base colors are available to better match their colors — a pale green for the Standard and Blood Sucker editions’ Mystery Machine style, and more standard green to match the Collector’s edition trim.

You’ll note that Spooky uses a smaller, recessed start button (unlike the now-standard ~1.5″ start buttons used by other pinball manufacturers). The complete housing assembly provided with 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. 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.
