3D Shooter Knob Surf’n Safari – The Cool Dinosaur with Pink Glasses and Blue Reflections

Add a sunny and playful touch to your Surf’n Safari pinball with this unique 3D Shooter Knob representing the famous dinosaur head with pink glasses. I model, print, and hand-paint each piece myself to give it a bright, fun, and retro look. With vivid colors, soft blue highlights, and a glossy finish, it perfectly captures the cheerful, laid-back spirit of Gottlieb’s cult classic. This handcrafted model instantly turns your pinball machine into an explosion of good vibes and color.

Once installed, the dinosaur becomes the star of your machine. Its big smile and shiny pink glasses immediately catch the eye. The tropical tones and glossy finishes recall sunshine, ocean waves, and the relaxed atmosphere of the 1990s. Each game feels like a trip back in time—vivid, nostalgic, and full of positive energy.

🦖 A Colorful and Expressive Design

The dinosaur’s head is carefully sculpted to reproduce its iconic look. Cartoonish shapes, detailed scales, and flashy sunglasses give it a unique personality. The contrast between the bright green skin and the glossy pink glasses creates an irresistible effect, while the blue reflections add a luminous, modern note. Every detail has been refined to match the joyful, exuberant universe of Surf’n Safari.

🎨 Handcrafted with Passion

I create, print, and paint every shooter knob by hand in my workshop. Each layer of paint is applied manually to achieve a rich, balanced result. The glasses receive a pearlescent mirror finish that reflects light beautifully. Finally, a glossy varnish protects the surface and enhances the colors’ brightness. Because every piece is handmade, each dinosaur has its own subtle variations, making every model truly unique.
