Quoted from dabomb1:I was wondering if you can do Bobby orr powerplay backglass. I could use 3.

Quoted from Frax:So...they're NOT going to be rerunning prior titles on the digital press as people order them? That was like....the entire goddamn point. To not have to wait for re-runs. Instead, it just seems like this whole thing was to set them up for being able to sell to deep pocket custom game builders, and to make it easier to do backglasses and plastics.
Definitely kicking my Cyclone to the curb if this is the case.. it's a decent player, but the PF needs some love and with no CPR and no hardtop...um...
Frax, few options out there.....

Quoted from Frax:I'd seen that 1400 dollar one last week...total lulz. That's what I paid for the entire game. No thanks.
Does BoP ship to the US, or do you have to do one of those odd post-forwarding services? I could've sworn I checked all the shops I knew of for those playfields, but apparently I'm a bit rusty.
*edit* Site says they ship to all countries. *shrug* Thanks for the tip-off, I now have a very hard choice to make, as my cabinet is rough as all getout, and would need a full repaint that I don't have the space to do...
I look forward to your "Cyclone Restoration" thread LOL
The 1400 is high but I guess the fact that it's cleared is the additional cost. HSA hasn't had the best reputation for clear these days but .... I would recommend reaching out to Chris at Hot Rod and making him an offer ..... he's nice guy to deal with and worst case he declines.
The BoP price is 755$ (USD) plus whatever shipping is so not bad price as long as the playfield has no blemishes!
Quoted from Frax:Can't tell if serious or not. I've done playfield swaps before, but never documented for Pinside.....well..except Crescendo. Also installed CPR playfield for Space Shuttle (which under someone else's ownership won an award at TPF!), and did a swap on Jackbot. That one was fun. It's really bloody hard to get the harnesses back into place without a rotesserie, and the playfield mounted in the cabinet. NEVER AGAIN.
Really though...I don't have a garage or anything. Doing a repaint myself is impossible. I just have to decide if a restored Cyclone is really worth 3k to me. I love the game, it's got a lot of memories of my dad tied to it, as he had bought one when I was a kid and we had it at home.... it's just really hard to justify that much money. My cabinet right now was double painted over with black, then red, which has faded to pink, and it looks like someone ran paint thinner over it to crackle up the red paint. It's bad.
Yeah was joking in the sense us pinball people have issues. Once you find a playfield we tend to say "well if I am going to put a new playfield in I should redo the cabinet" and so on!
I feel your pain on not having the space/place to do the work. I have a decent place back east with more room then I need for any type of work but here in CA I am in a 800 sf place, no garage or ample tools (all back East).
