Re: ULTRA-THIN Mirror Blades now available @ PinballCustoms I never did get around to doing any system 11 blades. It was in the plans, but the numbers don't make a lot of sense. Maybe if there were 10 committed pre-orders I would order materials and finalize the CAD files, but this would be a...

I'm confused... that link from BAA is showing them as in-stock. Seems you've already found them. [Edit] Sorry, that was weird. I checked again and now out of stock. Must've been a glitch. Looks like PBR is the best bet as Doug suggested. A pain to order from though.

Re: ULTRA-THIN Mirror Blades now available @ PinballCustoms How's this? No TRON should be without a set :) You can look here, but the photography doesn't do them justice (sorry Mike). viewtopic.php?f=20&t=259&p=3595&hilit=mirror+blades#p3595 On the right game, they really make a difference.

Walt, looks like I've got some of those ghosts in my Bally Special Force too :( Repaired a broken resistor and hoped that would bring the sound back... not no dice. I guess I can't expect too much, considering what I paid, but I am struggling to track down the cause of the problem. Swapping PIA...

I see a Big Lebowski custom pin in my future :D

The word from Gerard is that he'll likely wait a bit to do another container. This last one took way too long to sell out and doing them almost every month or two is not working. Sounds like late Summer/Fall will be more likely for another one... fingers crossed.

I examined my first Bally 6803 MPU board. I'm trying to troubleshoot a sound issue and it seems to be linked to the board and an odd (cracked) resistor on the back of the U1 chip.

You have been added. Once the ship is on the water and we have a rough idea of delivery date, I'll start to get some shipping quotes and contact everyone. Thanks, Adriano

Re: New MM playfield - any interest? Playfield is sold. Thanks!

Ahhhh, I love the smell of container pins in the morning :) It smells like.... Victory! (and smokey Italian bars) :D

I'm out... again :(

I'm a bit worried that there are no pics of the (likely faded) cabinet, and the price is top end for this title, but here's one in Montreal. http://montreal.fr.craigslist.ca/ele/3822075801.html

I have a Medieval Madness repro playfield. Bought it a while ago for $1100. The plan was originally to buy a beat routed MM (like the ones that Gerry sometimes gets on his container deals) and restore/flip. Since I already have a pretty nice MM in my lineup and tons of other projects piling up...

Looks like FT and DESW are your two most economical options (and Simpsons DE), but the first two are solid games. I especially like FT. It's very approachable and not a game you'll tire of easily. Further up the list I'd be looking for IM or NGG. Both good games and also not stupid money like...

I sort of collected in reverse to most people. It took me a bit longer, but I saved up and collected the games I wanted the most firsts. It hurt a lot to pay $2500 (retail!) for my TAF and then $3500 for my IJ... and it really sucked to pay $6500 for my MM :D I guess what I'm saying is that...

Yup. I have two reimport games with just one coin slot. Looks weird. Back on the day, european BW sometimes had three slots instead of the usual two.

Gerald? No soup for you :D You may have better luck with Gerry or Gerard. If past experience counts for anything, the next update is usually some sort of satellite tracking link so you can watch the boat's progress. I imagine it'll take a few days for the container to be driven to a dock, get...

Re: T2 Display Panel That's a speaker panel BTW. Free bump ;)

A great experience and trip nonetheless I'm sure! Well done Adam.

Yes, they had a CFTBL there that was for sale when I grabbed the Jacks Open
