Wow..........just wow. What a nice alliance Joe and the Refinery. Thanks again Joe for the speaker grills for both AC/DC and Met. Sure hope you guys will work on more Stern recent titles in the future. Avengers, X-Men, Tron. They can all use mods like these. As for me, well, I've got my Met Refinery edition with mirrors with Joe other decals on. Same for AC/DC, so I'll pass but really recommend it to people who have not done anything yet. These guys are the best. Keep it coming.

And Steve, that next summer Stern title is better be my Iron Maiden LE Refinery number 666

Nah Joe I really need one of them Speaker Grill for Blue Avengers Le, Tron too. Pm me anytime.

Now I need to look for that Tron pin

+1 on this ^^^^^^^^^^^. I would buy onw for my Xmen, Tron and BDK!

Need some DirtyD sort of art to match the pf! Cool idea.

Absolutely Killer! In for ALL!!! Steve and Joe...you guys need to slow down on the Killer mods, I'm going broke I can see this transitioning over to so many other themes!!! Tron next?

PP being sent shortly. Cheers!!!

uh..what?!? lol

It has been a hell of a month ....Steve and I been working round the clock on these..thank you all for the kind words..inspiration and ideas. It means SO much to us.

I may have designed them but Steve made them come alive... by far the sickest MOD I ever worked on..

Looking forward to working with the guys at Pinball Refinery on more ground breaking stuff.

MAKE SURE YOU CHECK OUT THE VIDEO

JMHO. MET has some of the BEST art in a new game since forever. I think these look nice but would look even better if you could get some DirtyDonny type art to go on them and would make for a cohesive mod that integrates seamlessly with the game art.

Would be great to see something like this for TAF.

Cool work! All I could think was....I wish I had a Metallica!

Joe, hands down, the art work is amazing. Just zoomed in on the RIP tombstone and noticed the ghostly guitar in hand and arm coming rising from the ground, bad ass!!! Nice job again! Can't wait to get this installed!

Yep, this mod is sick! The art alone is great looking, then when you see it in full effect with the lighting, WOW. I think I need this.

This looks absolutely sick. Awesome job guys!!!

The lightning effect looks awesome! So many awesome mods lately. Amazing creativity in this community.

ahh you caught that.. sort of a tribute to Cliff Burton.he was the bassist that died in 1986...

thanks man!..wait to install them and you see the luster of the coating on the panels combined with the lighting.. trust me.. the video and pictures do not do this one justice..

I would have some Kleenex ready..

Yeah, sorry Joe - gotta agree. The art on these panels does not match the game's art at all. It's the type of mod that looks like a mod. If you could match Dirty Donny's style - I'd be in for a pair.

Hey Greg.. That's cool man.. I value your opinion highly. Everyones got their own opinion and their own style.
as I said above ...see them on the game..in person....then come back and talk to me..It's all good.

-Joe

Looks fantastic to me. Just ordered.

dang !!!!

Love the idea (the lighting is very cool, assuming it doesn't distract from gameplay), and love the quality of the artwork. But I also have to agree...the style does not match the artwork of the rest of the machine.

These would 100% rock if the style matched!

I agree with Greg on this one. Looks awesome, but more for a game like TAF or BSD or maybe even the upcoming walking dead pin.

Crosses, Lightening Bolts, and Cliff coming out of the ground like a zombie on Return of the Living Dead - It doesn't get any better than this.... great job!

Not copy, but match. You can't get in trouble for stylistically matching something. You know how we all went "whut the!?" when we saw the Premium photo translite cuz it didn't match the rest of the game? It's like that, IMO.

Wow, that looks awesome. .great theme and layout . I think it matched the theme of the game perfect. I really like the way the lightning bolts tie into the background where "sparky" is. The purple colors in the background set off a nice mood with the tombstones. The guitarists arm (forgot his name ) coming out in front of the ground in front of the tombstone is a nice detail I wasn't expecting . A good eye for detail. The best one so far , a lot more detail than the previous flame design, this must have taken forever to do. It looks like someone custom airbrushed the artwork right on the inside of the machine. Do you also offer a matching apron decal ?

Seen this in person- art work is amazing and lighting effects are sick. Video does not do it justice. Trust me you won't be disappointed with this mod. Can't wait to see the few additional tweaks and the finished product. Look forward to additional art work and lighting effects for other games. Endless possibilities.
Great Job- keep up the good work- taking pinball to the next level.

Hemi, can you take a pic of the speaker panel on a pro for me?
Thanks Harley D.

Looks pretty damn cool to me.

How will all of these look on an LE?

Hemi, How do the LED Bars mount?

Can you post a photo with the lights on so we can see the LED bar ?

**Edit
never mind I saw the second video

All of Dirty Donny's art on Metallica was copied from other people's styles anyways, might as well continue the tradition.

these are so cool I am going to put these on my Tales from the Crypt. It should look pretty awesome . I am going to use the speaker panel artwork as well. If I ever get my Metallica I will just peel it off and stick it on my new MET, so I am good either way ......thx Joe

Can you post some pics of the decals once you have them covering the light strips?

Wolo

Yeah..you should be able to do that. Easy off and Easy on.. Pretty good idea there. Very creative thinking.. !

I am working on the stickers tonight to put the finishing touches on the kit that will cover the light strips..

Great work guys!
Any pics with these on an LE?

They are Game changers... Makes me think about buying Metallica again.... Joe I have your Ac/Dc stuff and it rocks, Hemi showed me the Video of these in action and kick ass job.. Combined with Hemi's knowledge and talent to light these up - WOW - WIN WIN

Not to forget Pinball Refinery's customer service and quality - how could this joint venture not be AMAZING!

Thank you!

We do not have any installed on an LE as of yet but we are working on it. Will keep you posted.

Thanks and I feel the same way. Steve and Gio are great guys and both so very talented... IT just makes sense .

I really love how this came out and .. The fact that Steve could take something that is flat and bring it to life with the lighting and make it "interactive"... that is a game changer..INDEED.

I mean.. Really.. WHO else has done this.!?!

We really appreciate all the kind words and feedback from everyone. We do listen and I have taken all feedback and constructive criticism has been duly noted. We will take this information and use it for future projects..We are pretty excited about them and we already have other designs in the QUE.

I have finished up the lightning bolt stickers that will go over the LED stripsphoto 3.JPGphoto 2.JPGphoto 1.JPG

Steve is on his way to the Pinball Show in Orlando as we speak to install. We will get a picture of them on the game shortly. BUT >> if you happen to be near the show.. I URGE you to see in person.. I think you will be blown away!
Let me put it to you this way.. my Metaliica Pro arrives Tuesday and its getting the full blown Pinball Refinery/Joeraptor Treatment..can't wait!

*insert death guitar riff here•

Simply amazing like normal. Well done, be ordering soon.

Fantastic!!!

I love the new decals for the light strips, it really blends well with the side decals very well , very cool guys

HOLY CRAP!!

One thing... we might want to leave it clear around the Tombstone area. thats an easy fix..otherwise ..speechless dude.. wish I could be there at the show.

thank you Kevin and thanks for posting up Steve.

This is just off the hook... how the hell did we do that?!?!? WOW!

Break a Leg!
