Is there a vote on the BigOJiggly Martian? They seem pricey at $19 a pop. Curious of ones thoughts on them.

#9408 2 years ago
Quoted from TheMickster:

Interesting, the Big O Jiggly Martians from mickspinball.com are cheaper then the "solid" replacements for the original ones...more robust, larger and of course a bit more "entertaining"...with or without the LED eyes....
Mick

I guess I’m cheap. Sorry to offend you. I’ve never considered what it takes to make them nor have I priced the original solid ones.

#9412 2 years ago
Quoted from Mr_Tantrum:

You could sell them below PPS price, buy the jiggly ones, and still have money left over.

Good idea

#9422 2 years ago
Quoted from TheMickster:

Yes CGC etc., I guess decided to cut off production or availability of these parts, I was looking ever since my buddy bought his LE, I was looking for a long time after I bought my SE, and I did manage to get all of the necessary parts, circuit board, all wiring for the interface board and each individual wiring for all of the six saucers, but I was only able to snag 2 of the saucer circuit boards.....my cost to add these parts to my SE machine was around $150.00 just to have two....but the included two Bi Colored saucers, plus the additional (4 ) saucer wiring will be included in the sale of my machine, so maybe in the future CGC will find a box of extra saucer boards and decide to finally sell them off.
I am certainly sure that there are a lot of these particular extra parts sitting around, and that will be laying around for many years, probably a material and labor/manufacturing cost loss.
Don't know, don't care now, as I am selling mine and will sorely miss it, but it really is a great addition to any of the remakes.
I initially was thinking of making/re-producing them, but the design, material and engineering etc. cost/s being too high, and most importantly the possible repercussions is certainly not worth it...
PS Does anyone really think that the LE owners would care?
Mick

I’m sure it depends on the individual LE owner. I wouldn’t care if I owned an LE. I’m all for improving a pin freely to ones liking and ability. From a guy who grew up poor with nothing but necessities, I may have a different opinion

Quoted from jkashani:

Can anyone tell me the dimensions of the AFMR with the head folded down, just the depth is really all I need. Thanks in advance.

30”

#9442 2 years ago
Quoted from pinballinreno:

Stick a 1" piece of nylon tie under the plastic glass channel that holds the glass, mid way up the playfield.
Maybe put it in 2 locations.
This works really well.
Experiment with small or large thicknesses.
Ive had good results with just a piece of a tiny one with the head cut off.
Lift the channel a little, Poke it in with a toothpick or a nylon razor blade.
Nothing too aggressive.
When done you cant see it at all.

Meaning… A zip tie?

I bet someone is real excited that they posted something on this thread now LOL

#9466 2 years ago
Quoted from ufopinball:

With a name like "Mr_Tantrum", how can you go wrong?

You’re about to get schooled on what the name tantrum is referring to now !!

Wow!

#9532 2 years ago
Quoted from DakotaMike:

Did you increase launch power all ready in the adv. service menu?

Mine wasn’t always making it to the top as well. After examining closely, it seemed the ball was slamming into the turn too hard and causing the ball to slow and retreat back down. I actually lowered my power from stock setting and it makes the shot 99% now.

Just an idea if this could be someone else’s issue

Is it a common issue to have left ramp flap not touching the playfield?

#9553 2 years ago
Quoted from LTG:

No. Remove screws, lift ramp a little. Gently bend the flap down a little.
LTG : )

Thanks Lloyd!

Quoted from maffewl:

Don’t know if everyone here deals with this, but my machines loves to airball on a ship drop target reflection. So I created this. Really happy with how it turned out, and kinda neat that it flashes green during strobe multiball.

Looks really nice! Great job

Quoted from wrd1972:

I heard a rumor that CGC was going to do a brand new run of AFM's. Has anyone else heard this. I am desperately wanting a SE.
Thanks

I thought you wanted the original
Coincidentally I’m looking for a nice FH and happen to own a AFMr SPecialE

#9600 2 years ago
Quoted from wrd1972:

I talked myself into an SE. But I would still take an original. Ive got a FH but i just cant part with it.

Bummer

Quoted from pinballinreno:

I have a nice FH im selling.
Fresh over the top restore.
Wont be cheap though.

At the moment I’m looking for a trade of my AFMr

#9602 2 years ago
Quoted from pinballinreno:

Would have been a good even trade!
But i already have an LE...

#9604 2 years ago
Quoted from wrd1972:

If you decide to sell please let me know.

Absolutely!
