Time for a hard plastic shield on all play fields installed at the factory.

Doesn't equal enough sales to make up for the labor costs. Look at all the cost cutting that has happened up to now just building the machines.

Thinking of getting a Premium. What should I add on besides the side art and shaker? Any good ideas for toppers on the Premium?

Did anyone get one of these? If so what size is best 1/12, 1/9 or 1/6 scale.

Thanks I'll check it out, also wanted the projector one for the wall since the reviews for the Stern accessory is so bad.

Just got a Premium. Having an issue with the ball stuck in the batmobile spinner and goes into ball search. What is the fix for that? Seems like ball search would at least move that spinner:

The bubble is almost dead center closer to to bottom line. Does it need to be pitched higher.?

OK thanks will try putting the pitch higher

The wires got pulled up in the motor and bent the plastic stopper and broke the solder on one of the diodes on that board under the motor. Have to call stern for a replacement

I think I was able to save the wires ok so hopefully just getting a new board will get me back. I really love the way it plays so far with just a few games.

Wow I totally disagree and I'm not even a comic/batman fan. It will only get better but I love mine so far the way it stands.

Sergeant Pepper could at least have the Cirqus Voltaire theme incorporated. Better choice.

Did this turn out ok? Amazon listing makes it sound like it's only a hardback book.

Dibs on the broken one. Don't throw it out

where is this at? Manual isn't clear:

Thanks! that worked.

Interested

The small things we think of have never been on Stern's radar and they are still in business so go figure.

That sure sounds like nothing is coming, employees would be sure or at least play dumb saying something clever.

I'm thinking all the complaining has gotten them to open up the code very recently and just add a few tweaks and features. They can't have spent months getting ready if we are just getting this very minimal feedback.

Probably cause it's just a beta and they aren't ready, nothing unusual here. They need a ton more time i'm sure.

Did you order direct from their web site and what options do you need for BM66?

Mine looks like yours, I have the ring centered over the speaker so it’s going to be offset.

I looked at that a while back and there is no menu option to back up the code like their used to be. Must be on purpose.

Please post a video of the atomic pile.

same thing happened to me adding the side art. Don't turn it back on. There's some wires that can get pulled up into the motor. Carefully lift the playfield and you'll see the problem, pull them all out, make sure none are cut or semi-cut and tie wrap them out of the way.

I hate storing media. When will Netflix stream the series? They had the movie on briefly.

Very nice, would you consider jumping into the mod craze and offering an upgraded light kit for the atomic pile?

That entranceway is need of automatic sliding doors with sound effects. Amazing detail looks great.

Our high scores sure don’t stick around very long lately. Nice problem to have.

Rule question. When you defeat all 4 and the playfield goes dark and the bat signal flashes, what do you do next? Nothing seems to trigger any more modes.

Can you post a photo of the glue applied?

With so many new posts I thought code dropped but all I got for Christmas is play field protector talk

I still like stacking

I can, I work, watch TV and everything possible without lights on. We even alternate days at work meetings where one day lights off one on after a vote.

I always do 5 balls. It puzzles me why arcades continues to stick to 3. I’m no beginner and the little I’ve tried Star Wars locally my $1 is over quick. I end up walking away. You would think if people could play a bit longer they would spend more.

2nd game on .87 and it rebooted during 3 ball lock multi-ball. I had played villan escape first then got the multi ball last. Would have been a great score too

Not so sure that explains it. I played the same way for many games on the last two updates and zero reboots but now .87 has failed 3 times for me.

Are you waiting long enough? Sometimes it does sit before starting the update.

Time for another code update since I just got my best score

Yes turn it off and start over

Wonder why they removed stacking? Reboots?

Haven't loaded the code yet but i thought .87 also was doing that better.

I got all 3 villains but Riddler and every time i hit the phone another completed villain starts. Where on the playfield do you shoot to hit Riddler to make him start?

yes, wires underneath gets pulled up into the motor. check it.

I had to bend the switch abit to get it working.

Great timing, they waited just long enough to maximize profits.

I love these outrageous listings and they can’t even offer free shipping.

Please share your FF settings

I just did that on Aerosmith and it didn’t help on just scoring like I thought it would. Multi balls on Aerosmith doesn’t seem to score as good as BM66. Wonder if a code update will improve scoring on Aerosmith?

No switch, did you extract the zip file and put the files in the root folder of the usb?

Join the club, same thing happen to me and I got mine a long time back.

BM Blu-ray set just dropped on Amazon, already out of stock but you can get one shipped by 10/1

$41.96

no issues on the download, just the usual stuck once during update, power cycle and resume.

Does doing a switch test determine if you have the joker/penguin target issue?

yes

Yes, check the wires underneath. They can get pulled into the motor causing this problem. Need to be carefully tied up out of the way.

Only bm66 freezes for me a lot. Yes restart when stuck.

Considering they can easily repair and resell/reuse they should at least offer a purchase discount for sending back the bad board.

And Stern doesn’t offer this repair service because?

And I understand that but when you build an expensive board with a higher than normal failure rate how is it you don’t want to keep your customers?

New run is for premiums which don’t include those limited edition toppers.

The increase is supposed to make up for the higher price on freight which would have to be added to your cost. Hopefully I’m wrong.
