Re: pic: Light Up Bumpers

I'm with Al on this one... the bumpers are really cool, and I highly recommend you keep them for demo purposes. However, I do not believe the intent or wording of the rules, or the bumper cross section provided in figure 4-8 allows for electronics (wires, LED's) to be present in the bumpers. I also doubt their ability to withstand rigorous game play without breaking.

Unless you get an alternate ruling from the GDC through the Q&A, please use normal noodles. See you guys at LSR!
