Take my money already....Looks so good.

#1080 6 years ago
Quoted from rosh:

the box itself is a heavy steel, so that is plenty sturdy. I'm not sure what the decorative coverring is

Would look really nice if it was lined inside with a nice red or purple material ..like velvet or something similar..

#1088 6 years ago

Great idea reducing jackpot for mashing both flippers. That is what I do on GB. Just press both whenever I want either to flip.

It is great to see the extra thought you guys are putting into this game. This is the first pin that I am actually really excited about buying.

All the positive comments are really well deserved.

Is mylar neccessary by the slings with a clearcoated playfield? I know it protects but i hate the look of them.

Will they be easily removable?

#1154 6 years ago
Quoted from Manic:

Well that's one mans opinion anyways.

Two.

#1159 6 years ago
Quoted from rosh:

I would certainly want the mylar in the pops and the scoop, but maybe not the slings

Agree 100%.

This pin is going to be a grand slam..

#1237 6 years ago
Quoted from beatmaster:

i was wondering if there will be another distributor on the other side of canada.
don't feel great about paying for shipping and have it shipped across the country.

Dont you guys have Starburst there still? Or Player One whatever they are calling themselves?

#1247 6 years ago
Quoted from beatmaster:

nope, they don't sell this one, that'd be a good thing i'm 20min. away.

I am pretty sure the one here is going to sell them. Closer than out west.

Speaking of mylar, what was the decision with the half moon in front of the slings? In the goodie bag?

#1521 6 years ago
Quoted from rosh:

the sling shot mylar will be included but not installed. While not everyone will agree with that, I think the majority of folks would find that to be the right scenario.

Great thanks. Much easier for someone that wants it to just apply it.

Ya I heard you can change it to moaning women.

So when I order a Houdini through mt distributor will these be installed at the factory or shipped separately with the game?

#2208 6 years ago

Has anyone changed their mind about owning this after playing it? I was super excited to get one but after playing it I find it not as exciting because of that right inner loop. Milk can also.

When you need to make these shots for a mode or to lock ball and miss 95% of the time it is just not fun.

I love everything about it except that damn shot.

Is it possible to move that stand up on the left side of right inner loop over to the left a tiny bit?

My Houdini space and money is now going to a Dilaed In. This one is on the back burner now.

#2210 6 years ago

I agree they are doable but for me not enough right now.

#2214 6 years ago

I will most definitely play more of it. I have about two hours on it right now. I will try the backhand for the inner loop and see how it goes. Worst case I buy DI now and Houdini later if I find I get use to that shot.
