As of May 25, 2008 we will no longer be collecting open
votes for reproduction parts suggestions.
This stems from our new direction that began January 2008, where
the choice of CPR's reproductions
now is entirely influenced by the CPR Art Team and the artwork
it produces.
While it was great to see the "Top 10" requests stack at the top
of our Playfield, Plastics, and Backglass
polls, this unfortunately was only a rough statistic based on
several hundred votes. No matter
how many votes something got (it could even be the most popular
part wanted), without the
artwork being recreated by a pinball artist, CPR simply could
never make the item anyway.
The vast number of tastes, opinions, and personal favorites
amongst the Art Team members
will ensure that there is a strong & plentiful variety of
reproduction projects pumping out
of CPR, touching a wider variety of machines (and brands!) that
would have never been
considered if we totally stuck to polls. Besides, most of
what was at the top of the polls had
already been reproduced, or soon will be. We also
experienced shockingly low sales on
some of the highest voted items! Reproduced only because
we followed the polls.
All of our most successful items (proven by rapid or eventual sellouts)
were always very low in the polls.
This just shows that choosing what to reproduce is still much of
a crap shoot anyway.
We have kept all the results right up until today. They
will be considered for reference if an artist is looking
to choose their next project. We thank each and every
voter who threw their opinion into the hat.

are working on now!
