					<description><![CDATA[<p>Hide that ugly opto sensor and its unsightly wires!  Stern decided to position this sensor directly in the player's line of sight -- block it from view with this intricately detailed Empire State Building mod!  After all, what's a King Kong game without the ESB?</p>
<p>This highly detailed model is the produced via extremely lengthy three-color 3D print, including a warm speckled stone color for the structure, transparent gray for the windows, and metallic steel color for the antenna tower.  It began as an excellent model created by <span class="multiline svelte-v85o6v">Miroslav Faist, and has been heavily modified for ideal fit in the game.  Due to its height, the building requires extremely precise positioning to ensure clearance when rotating/lifting the playfield for servicing the game.  This positioning is established by its unique mounting bracket, whose oddly canted features also accomodate the not-perfectly-level plastics to which it mounts.  The mod design required dozens of iterations and modifications to achieve the perfect size, shape, and fit -- but it was worth the effort!</span></p>
<p>This mod <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>is</strong></span> compatible with Stellar Pinball’s Biplane Attack mod!  See photo in this listing demonstrating the clearance between the wingtips and the building.</p>
<p>Installation is very easy and requires only a Phillips-head screwdriver (magnetic tip preferred).  DIY instruction video below.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Hide that ugly opto sensor and its unsightly wires!  Stern decided to position this sensor directly in the player's field of view -- make it disappear into the background with this custom purple cover, that blends into the surrounding artwork.</p>
<p>Installation is very easy and requires only a Phillips-head screwdriver (magnetic tip preferred).  DIY instruction video below (includes purple cover version and Empire State Building version in the same video).</p>

		<title>Temple of Kong, for King Kong: Myth of Terror Island</title>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Featured in the playfield artwork of King Kong: Myth of Terror Island is a stone temple, built by the ancient natives of Terror Island, who carved a statue on top honoring the mighty Kong!    This wonderful detail deserves the 3D treatment, and so here it is brought to life!</p>
<p>The temple is exquisitely detailed with stone textures and stair features.  After printing (in two colors, to accommodate a diffuser for the lighting), the temple is detailed by hand with aging effects and realistic shrubbery overgrowth.  Internal lighting gives the appearance of fires maintained inside the temple which flicker continuously during gameplay, driven by the game's general illumination.</p>
<p>Installation is very easy and requires only a 5/16" nut driver or ratcheting wrench.  Purchase includes the temple with pre-installed lighting, aging effects, greenery, and mounting magnets, plus a mounting plate / light shield, and matrix bulb with extension.  See "Installation Instuctions" for DIY video.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Designed specifically for King Kong Premium version (with its biplane artwork surrounding the start button), this 3D start button features the rest of the propeller blades and central spinner cap!  The raised blades are printed in a metallic multicolor filament for additional depth effect -- plus a metallic white along their leading edge to match the shine in the artwork. The spinner cap is printed in metallic silver, while the remainder is printed in your choice of translucent tangerine or amber. The tangerine lights up very, very light -- almost white to the naked eye -- while the amber lights up more of an orange. Both look great though so the choice is up to you!</p>
<p>IMPORTANT NOTE TO EXISTING CUSTOMERS: If you own a Premium but already purchased my other Kong start button (the gold meander pattern w/ rock letters) and you'd prefer to have this version instead, I have set up a special discount where you can purchase this new version for only $10!  Your coupon code will be your last name plus your order number (for example, DOHERTY90210).</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>These 3D coin reject buttons feature the ancient temple tower complete with shiny gong! The model's details and strategic print patterns give the tower blocks their 'engraved/carved' appearance, like the tower in the game. In a fun reference to the buttons' function, the gong's design shows '25c' (cents) instead of a Kong face. Mid-layer filament changes allow for full color integration on the designs and fuses them together as one single continuous print.</p>
<p>Purchase includes a pair of buttons (or a single button for exported games), colored bulbs where applicable (e.g., purple, red, or warm white for yellow or orange base buttons), and replacement e-clips.</p>
<p>Installation is easy!  See installation instructions below.</p>
<p>Many thanks to Basstone18 for this authorized use of his gong tower model!</p>
<p>**Buyer is responsible to confirm their coin door uses this Suzo-Happ button type (replacement for button only in 42-0517 assembly, no housing included), as some export/reimport games may have had coin doors changed/modified.**</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Designed to match the K-I-N-G--K-O-N-G inserts featured prominently on the playfield, this 3D Start Button features exquisite black &#38; gold detailing plus orange rock letters spelling 'START'. The playfield artwork's letters have foliage on top, so the buttons are made in two versions -- with or without foliage. The button is printed using mid-layer filament changes so it is entirely fused together. The gold is printed in a metallic filament and the outer border and letters are printed in a specialty filament designed to look and feel like rock!</p>
