For those who missed out on adding this cool mod but very pricey mod to your Tron. Looks like Pinball Life has v4.0 of this mod available on their site.

Is it just me, or does every iteration of this mod get more expensive? Wasn't the original a $50 change to the original cab that was in there?

Yup and it still is. Eli has all the plans online to build this yourself. When you add up the costs though, you're looking at probably $150 - $180 (the screen alone is about $60 shipped, and the laser cut pieces around $60 as well). Then there's the time to wire up all the harnesses, etc. I'm not that skilled.. so I paid the $$$ :FP:

That said, there is also the "budget" version of the plans which is to simply modify your existing toy.

My mistake, the creator is Jeremy "Tilt"

Eli programmed the display.

I'm waiting for the version with raspberry pi running mame, that actually plays tron...while your playing tron. :FP:

I did the poor man's mod ... bought the $32 screen online, and put it in, did not do the deluxe mod (you could be I did not think there was enough return on investment). I did it more just to play with the screen ... Technically that screen does support rasp-pi, and there are a number of mame ports .. so in theory instead of running the "fake" attract mode, you could boot into the real game, real attract mode. but I do not have a pi to play with ... yet
