Themendous

I thought the below attached article was an interesting read and agree with the report.  What this basically means to me is that local FEC's will be seeing some serious black in their bottom lines.  They will however be competing against each other, so I offer one bit of advise... No one will come to your fun center if your fun center "aint" FUN!   See my video blurb here .  If you think that simply painting your FEC walls primary colors will make your place "fun", I am sorry to tell you that you are mistaken.  Fun means having a mix of all the right things.  From video games, to redemption, to interactive involvement all the way to the overall layout.  YES the layout!  I recently received a desired floor plan from a client who is looking for an 18 hole black light miniature golf setup in a 5,000 sq ft location.  My immediate question was why an 18 hole?  Why not a 9 hole and mix the rest of the location with other "FUN" stuff?  Why crowd an already s...

On our way to our show at the convention center for our FunExpo show, we bumped into TIM and had a little "meet and greet" about his product. It's amazing what a little ingenuity can get you, so we just had to give him a little exposure here on the "Custom Creations Theming Show". (by the way, he makes a mean pizza!)

So we are here at Vegas baby, (FunExpo) and of course, nothing ever goes smoothly...

To say we're a little busy would be an understatement. We're putting the final touches on our incredible display for this year's IALEI exhibit and Gio's been in front of the mirror practicing his acceptance speech and combing out that damned beard he's been growing. Our top secret project that includes centaurs, minotaurs and skeletons is moving along at a rapid fire pace while we're designing another lasermaze. In the meantime, Maritza figured out how to make the blog look snappy but not how to widen the inside column (suggestions appreciated). Here's a couple of links to some sites that may help you sound pretty smart next time you go golfing: http://www.mentalfloss.com/blogs/archives/18282 http://www.mgaus.org/history_of_miniature_golf.htm Just remember the answer to this question: "Who makes the coolest, most awesomest outdoor and indoor blacklight mini golf props in the world?" Answer: Custom Creations!

UNION CITY, NJ – Busier than ever, Custom Creations had some great successes and fantastic projects completed and the month isn't even over! We completed a 20 foot tall Bugdroid for the folks at Google in San Francisco. The Bugdroid is a huge hit and is part of a marketing campaign for the launch of Google's G1 Android phone. With less than a week to fabricate and ship, it was all hands on deck working around the clock and we got it done and out the door! “Giovanni, you and your team did an incredible job – against all odds and a crazy, unrealistic schedule. You rocked!” -- Andy Rubin Director of Mobile Platforms “Thanks again. Fantastic work! Kudos to your team! We've been trying to keep this a secret. It's going to blow people's minds when they see it. It will definitely tip our launch celebration over the top. Your efforts are much appreciated.” --Jeff Yaksick Lead Interface Designer We do indeed, rock. A little closer to home, we just had our balls pol...
