    Kiss Pinball Officaly announced

    So that custom armour that they're selling is just stickers? That's a little cheap. I suppose you're getting the black powder coat as well, but still, seems like you could do the same thing for maybe 20 bucks in printing.

    Stern Pinball Announces Partnership with FarSight Studios

    So they won't put more stern games into the regular pinball arcade frontend, but create a whole separate package? So much for having a complete platform? Still, it'll be god to see more games in there-Farsight does good work, and it's a great way to get games to people who don't have access...

    The Hobbit Full Playfield Posted by JJP

    So presumably this is independent of the modes in the center grid, or perhaps those will complement one of those quadrants (dwarf/elf mode), although not sure how many of those you'd need to qualify the arkenstone segment (maybe the more modes you cash in the higher the base value or something...

    Stern announces next pin...Game of Thrones

    I've just caught up on the show, so even knowing what's going on, it looks a little disappointing. The LE art with the dragons front and center isn't bad, but it'll all come down to how the game actually plays. Reserving judgment for when the game is out and has some code behind it.

    Staging My Pinball Home For Sale

    I moved my MAME out when we sold the last place, but I left the 2 pins I had at the time. To much of a pain to move, and agreed that they make the place a little more memorable.

    ColorDMD's next game is X-Men

    That looks really nice. Hopefully we get a dollar rebound at some point-there's a few games I own now that it'd be nice to put these in.

    MMR DMD Sneak Preview

    That's a nice upgrade-I'm assuming it's software only since the game already has an LCD in it? I forget-was MMR emulated, or did they have to re-program? Are they using original assets?

    Building a Dream

    Looks like it's just some regular outdoor wiring-I've run into this when digging post holes, and it's a pain in the ass. At least it's not a major line?

    ColorDMD's next game is X-Men

    This could look great on X-Men. If only the price weren't so ridiculous with the exchange.

    City Pinball - New Toronto League!

    Nope-good luck with the league!

    City Pinball - New Toronto League!

    Even with TOPL, we only charge host fees for private locations. If/when we go to a public location, then there's no host fee, but you pay coin drops on the games. The last place we played in public was the Pinball Cafe, and we used to go to Playdium, but finding public locations that have...

    WPC Reset Boards

    You could also try pulling those games onto a different circuit and see what happens. You could also try measuring while the other games on that circuit are running-maybe if you run the burn-in test on them to generate load? Not sure if that's going to be at a lower draw or not.

    My JM Refurb Adventure

    Looks great-now I know where to go if I need any assembly pics the next time I take my JM apart.

    FS "Not Mine" Pinball Machines For Sale

    There's something wrong here-that seems like a reasonable price for that game... What's the catch?

    My JM Refurb Adventure

    Looking good. Now to put the PF back together and see how many spare parts you have afterwards :)

    My JM Refurb Adventure

    Nice start-pretty soon you'll have the most expensive JM in the world (in terms of money into it) :) It's a fun game though-enjoy! I'm always amazed that people have things like playfields for old games like this still lying around. I'd really like to tackle a full restore like this...

    Anyone had a problem with the Nightcrawler mechs on XMLE sticking up?

    It seems like this has been an issue for a while now, but one of the NC mechs on my XMLE is stuck in the up position. The release coil fires, but it doesn't seem to be strong enough to pull the latch off the plunger when the mech is resting on it. I'm thinking I just need to bend things a...

    Any suggestions on generic Mylar for spot protection

    I was wondering if those self adhesive sheets were worth using-I'll see if I can track some down. I noticed that the blackbird scoop on X-Men was starting to get a little chewed up on the right side. I wanted to put something over it to try to keep it from wearing out any more (even though...

    I never knew those existed. That's a good idea.

    Building a Dream

    You can always add some fans afterwards. I'd be more worried about keeping garage doors open and keeping bugs and other wildlife out. Nothing like getting eaten alive by mosquitoes while trying to play pinball :)
