    Yikes, I do not like those art blades at all. They might win the award for Worst Art Blades I Have Seen To Date™️. I think if anything, this is a game that desperately needs lightning flippers rather than Classic Bally see through flippers like that. Just my two cents.

    Got a client with a tmnt, he wants me to mod it out. Asked me to compile a list of badass mods. Any suggestions? I would change: the flasher under the pizza to a nice green one. replace the white training domes to green ones, white is so bright. Ramp lightning that does change with the turtle, Blue, Purple, Orange, Red for each turtle. Flipperfinger toppers, are quite cool and any game mod Scandell or 1987 the april stern did is so ugly.

    Can't say enough at how great a job Spooky does with their machines. This latest code update with the wizard mode and effects is just so cool. They really get full use out of all the sound and RGB lighting. The lightning effects, etc. Anyways, you just dont see this level of quality from other manufacturers. Now, that being said, I am not a good enough player and will likely never reach the wizard mode, so if they could add a cheat code in to jump into it that would be even cooler to have....

    TSPP - Itchy & Scratchy Eject STDM Post #1 in topic

    Posted 49 days ago by NARDO422 – in Tech: DMD era games ‐ Last reply 49 days ago

    About 50% of the time, the itchy and scratchy eject fires the ball lightning fast straight down the drain. No amount of savvy flipper work can save it ... it's just a super unfortunate eject angle. Is there a way to adjust the strength and/or angle of that saucer eject? [att=8065622,3805516 caption=""]

    Do you have any idea what may have happened to the game? Nearby lightning strike? Seems the damage is rather broad for the typical shorting of coil voltage into the lamp or switch matrix.

    Which playfield from BuT are you waiting for ??!! Post #22 in topic

    Posted 61 days ago by TomDK – in All Pinball ‐ Last reply 6 days ago

    And as previously mentioned here - it'd be fuckin' awesome if we could get one made with the red screen done properly. And silkscreen !!! All BuT playfields are good, old silkscreenprint. As far as I know Peter and his team are the last manufacturer not using digital print. I am not in a need of any playfield right now. But if there is a chance to get playfields sikscreened with special colors (lightning, UV, etc) it would be the clever way to ask for this titles and see if there is a demand.
