    Stranger Things... Another Run

    Honestly a little surprised. Yeah, there was internet demand, but I suppose that actually bubbled up into enough distributor demand to make a run worthwhile? Can't imagine it'll be a lot of games, but I'm sure there was at least a critical mass of orders/interest/commitment from the network...

    Stranger Things Strangeness

    So if it's a rollover, then does it trigger at different speeds in test? It might be that fast shots aren't registering, or the ball is getting just a little air and not triggering the switch? That might still need an adjustment to make it more sensitive. You also might be on to something...

    Stranger Things Strangeness

    Is that an opto? Does ST have the same problem as JP does? I know on my JP I had a problem with the right orbit not registering. Solution was to put a small piece of electrical tape over the bottom half of the opto hole. Seems like it helps the game correct for the opto being at not quite...

    Next Stern Pin... Fighting Soon!

    Well, they were on 0.96 before, so not much to rev before 1.0 if they're sticking to 2 significant digits. I did notice the callouts for the overdrive save that remind you to hold the left flipper button (nice), and the fact that all 16 songs are selectable from the start. I didn't notice that...

    Next Stern Pin... Fighting Soon!

    Played a couple of games on the new code, and noticed some new callouts, but given that I've never finished both DC and Austin in the same game, didn't see a bunch of new stuff. There's still no real implementation of the combo-tron stuff yet, is there?

    Shippsy -When things go wrong.

    Wow... Thanks for sharing this. It sucks, and I hope you get it resolved. It's a good warning about how things can go very wrong, and be very expensive. Even when Shipsy is clearly in the wrong here (by incorrectly accepting the damaged shipment), your only real recourse is what-to sue them...

    FS Foo Fighters LE

    You're welcome to come by and check out my premium sometime. It's a neat game! Needs new code though, but it's still pre-1.0. Layout is probably one of the best in recent years.

    SOLD Dialed-in

    If it was their floor game, then it might actually be a preproduction/sample LE. I want to say that there's something slightly different on those from the prod games, but I can't actually think of what that might be. I do remember P1 having one pretty early on though. Either way, Dialed In is...

    How to send money to the U.S. without Paypal?

    Good luck-not a mod for the faint of heart. I know Adam did his old TZ ages ago, and it's definitely a unique addition.

    SOLD Dialed-in

    It looks like that's an LE. The SE doesn't have the ramp lights, and it's stainless trim and not the blue powder.

    SOLD Godzilla Pro

    Good deal-I'd be interested in Rush if I had space, but from the sounds of things it's already gone :)

    I guess Stern LEs aren’t limited anymore

    Looks like the raptor gate thing was a SW issue. 1.11 is out and fixed it. The co-op is definitely interesting. It basically gives you a 12 ball game for progress, but each player also has access to their own multiballs (so everyone can play t-rex MB, everyone has their own chaos letters...

    I guess Stern LEs aren’t limited anymore

    Anyone else having an issue with their Premium and the raptor gate moving up and down constantly on the new code? From skimming the pinside thread, it sounds like a known issue with newer builds? Anyway, might want to hold off on updating for a day or two if you haven't already.

    I guess Stern LEs aren’t limited anymore

    Oof...no thanks. I'll stick with my Premium. Looking forward to checking out the new code though. Not sure how substantial it'll be, but I saw mention of new callouts and a "nedry save"? I'll bet that last one is going to be like the Oxygen Destroyer on Godzilla, but you have 10s to shoot...

    I guess Stern LEs aren’t limited anymore

    Also from the press release-new code! I don't think there'll be any new assets in there, but those extra modes sound neat.

    I guess Stern LEs aren’t limited anymore

    Same idea as the JJP re-releases (WOZ YBR and RR, Hobbot Black arrow) and what Stern did with Elvira and Star Wars Comic Art. Nothing to see here really. Now, if they dropped new code to celebrate the 30th with more movie assets (audio especially), then we'd have something, but I don't see...

    Is venom next ?

    So from what I've seen so far that game looks fast. The balls coming out of the stack locks is an interesting touch-can't remember where I've seen this before. Closest I can think of is something like Halloween or Spectrum. I'm also not sure what will happen with league games on this-we might...

    Right...forgot about the move-that would do it.

    Is venom next ?

    Looks interesting-at first glance it seemed like the pro/premium were pretty similar, but the geometry changes actually look more significant. That horseshoe on the pro looks like it can be a horseshoe, ramp from the right, ramp from the left, a dead end from the left, or a scoop from the left...

    WTB looking for a recent stern pro pinball for my office

    Not likely. If you're looking at NIB, Foo Fighters is great. As long as people don't hate the music, it should go over well.
