I received AFM-1056 this evening, unboxed it and got it set up in the game room. I had to relegate my RFM to the storage room for now, but maybe I can figure out how to get all the pins in the same room somehow. My son and I played a round of doubles for the first games.

The light show is excellent, the larger colorized animations are awesome, and the sound system in it really sounds great and hits low. I think this one is a winner! A few minor adjustments and it should be 100%... The ball launch sometimes doesn't make it all the way up to the jet bumpers, but that's really the only thing I need to touch. The SOL protector looks like it should be fine, very close to the playfield lip. I think the flipper power could probably be turned down a few notches too - there were a few shots I made up the lock ramp that flew off the return ramp.

Overall impression: An excellent remake, even more fun than the original!

Quoted from Higloss67:

Congrats. Let me know what you find with the ball launch. I got mine yesterday and it is doing the same as yours. Has trouble making it up to the jets, a lot of bouncing around before it gets there. The sound system in this is incredible.

I set the autoplunger to minimum strength and that has fixed it for the most part. Once in a while it won't make it up to the pops, but I remember my friend's NIB original AFM doing the same thing from time to time, so I'm not super worried about it. I also turned the flipper power down one notch. Other than those two adjustments, it was pretty solid right out of the box.
