    SOLD STTNG pinball Machine

    Re: STTNG pinball Machine That's a nice looking STTNG-should move quickly. I like the side panels and alt translite-haven't seen those installed on a game before.

    The Hobbit Full Playfield Posted by JJP

    I wondered the same, but then again, look at ANY game with little to no sound, and no software. Gets boring really fast. Already looked like some interesting stuff going on with strobing drop target shots, and it also appears that the popups can get hit from behind, so I can see that getting...

    Well, that's certainly more dragon. Sounds like there's still some fine tuning to do on the book etc, but I like where they're going. Still in on this one.

    Do you let pre-schoolers play your pins?

    I let my kids (2 and 6) play all the pins, and they're fine with them. The 2 year old's favourite thing is the start buttons, which I suppose is better than his sister at that age (who loved the power switches). Neither will really play a full game themselves, and neither is super hard on the...

    ColorDMD - My precious....

    Anyone want to split an order to get free shipping? I think I want to get one of these for LOTR.

    Ramp lighting in your face!

    Neat idea-I like the tracking effect. I always thought this would look great on Tron as the Light Cycle trail effect.

    Avengers: Age of Ultron

    Ultron is really one of the quintessential Avengers villains though-you had to get there sometime, and I trust the creative committee to steer things in the right direction. Rumor is that the next phase after this is going to build to Civil War, with Thanos hitting eventually, but who knows...

    All the LEs have shipped. Sounds like that was more a case of supplier problems than anything else. Hopefully most of that is sorted out this time around.

    No idea what has to start shipping when-I'm just going by what I got from Jack the last time I emailed him about it. Said that production was starting mid-december, so I'm probably getting my game sometime in early(ish) 2015? Not sure when the first preorders went in, but I've been on it since...

    So do we know if this is final or not? There's the usual "features subject to change" on the flyer, and I have a feeling that there's still something that hasn't been revealed here. Wasn't the crystal ball screen a late game addition on WOZ? If nothing else, we know the software should...

    Stern and Whizbang Pinball Bring Melon Season Early This Yea

    Re: Stern and Whizbang Pinball Bring Melon Season Early This So is that the actual base for the game? Neat idea. Not really my kind of game, but I'm glad to see that it exists.

    ColorDMD - My precious....

    Wonder if the Stern kit and the B/W kit are going to be the same? Either way, I might finally buy one of these-it could look great in LOTR.

    Looking good-apparently anyone with a preorder can switch up to the Smaug LE for free? Just emailed SB checking whether I can switch. I like the side art on the Smaug cabinet, but I'd like to see what the gold Smaug toy looks like before deciding for sure. Still no updates on production dates...

    JPOP tweet

    Wow, those look pretty substantial for foamcore prototypes :) Seriously though, it'll be amazing if this is actually showing off a completed magic girl. I don't think they've started building the production games yet, but it'll be great to finally see what he's been working on all this time.

    Wolverine Bash Toy Protector, Great for Operators with Xmen

    Re: Wolverine Bash Toy Protector, Great for Operators with X Does that just go over top of the existing figure, or is it cutting off the base? It'd make the beast shot even tighter on the LE if you add the extra material on top. Mine is still in one piece, but I have noticed the paint...

    Any ISP recommendations (GTA)

    Ended up going with start for cable. 60 down, 10 up, unlimited bandwidth for 80 bucks a month. Also canceled landline phone and am in the process of porting number to voip.ms. Means instead of paying 48 bucks a month for a phone I barely use, I pay 2.50 a month for a DID and e911, plus a cent...

    El Dorado: City of Gold - No Power

    Well I learned something today-I had no idea that the interlock switches on those games turned the entire machine off. Look at it this way-you'll NEVER make that mistake again :)
