Quoted from Royale-W-Cheese:

Might be putting my BM Quasi SLE up for sale as I am in addiction mode and need the place...lol. A few pinsiders have seen it and have stated it's the best BM66 they have ever seen....I kinda gotta agree as I went crazy modding it but still looks classy.
This is not mine up for sale. I have many more items. Just an example if you are serious and want s top of the line BM.

I did a youtube versus posting a bunch of pictures.
Have a good weekend guys.

This is an absolutely a beautiful machine, I have never seen one so loaded with tons and tons of mods. someone is going to be very happy with this, GLWS

Can someone post a pic of the new insider connect for Batman 66, Would love to see how it looks

#17088 2 years ago
Quoted from docquest:

Seems a bit weird that they didn't center the trading card holder a little better. Maybe it looks better when it's rotated 90deg to handle portrait orientation cards.

I have to agree, it looks like it is off center. Now I can’t unsee it

Anyone have a Batman 66 LE translite for sale, I will pay top dollar for one

Please pm me

Thank you

#17149 2 years ago
Quoted from thekaiser82:

My December build B66 is finally home and ready to go! Does anyone know if anyone makes an aftermarket bat gadget selector sticker for the lockdown bar. Those stickers didn’t survive being removed for powder coating. I will probably just do the mod couple mod for the lockdown button. Any leads or suggestions would be appreciated.
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Looks great, who did you powered coating?

Finally after a few years, I have been waiting this machine and now I finally have one, I am in the Batman 66 club! Love this machine! especially the rule set

#17258 2 years ago
Quoted from JStoltz:

They’re never “needed,” but definitely worth it. Penguin scoop takes a lot of hits, as does the mystery saucer. I guess you could wait until you start to see wear and then get some, but they’re so cheap (compared to most pinball mods/parts) I’d say just get them now.

Not bad at all, Just bought a full set, total $86 shipped

#17260 2 years ago

Think it’s time for an update!

#17280 2 years ago
Quoted from JStoltz:

Most likely a loose Ethernet cable, which is pretty easy to check. See if there is a cable that isn’t snug around the Node 9 board (diagram from the manual attached)
[quoted image]

I tried updating from version V0.95.0 to the newest update and I am getting this

#17287 2 years ago
Quoted from thundergod76:

From past experiences it looks like your Node 9 is blown and needs replaced. Welcome to Spike 2 ownership.

How do I get a replacement??

#17288 2 years ago

Forget about updating at the moment.
Do your node boards have the stabilization kits installed? If your game is old enough, it might not?
https://sternpinball.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Stern-SB189.pdf
If not, the diode may be the issue on your board. The legs are very weak and can break from vibration. It could also be just a loose connector.
The diode is circled in yellow. It looks like a transistor, but 2 legs I think..
Rob

Not sure Rob, looks ok to me, everything is connected good

#17291 2 years ago
Quoted from FlippinJB:

Yes, agreed - compare the LEDs (including blinking amber) between Node 9 and 8. If 9 doesn't behave the same as 8, you're most likely looking at a new node board. I've had two pop on Ghostbusters, and one on BM66. Also, my CPU node popped on Ghostbusters, losing its 6v. These things are not cheap.

Yes on node 9 only get the steady red light that stays on and nothing else! On 8 I get the red light and a blinking amber light

#17294 2 years ago

Thank you everyone for the help, looks like node board 9 is shot

Emailed Stern, will keep you posted

#17352 2 years ago
Quoted from kidchrisso:

Does anyone have an SLE translite they would want to sell?

I have been looking for over a year for them! The SLE and LE

#17357 2 years ago
Quoted from Beez:

Added a Playfield Protector, Lane Protector, Plastic Protectors, SuperBands, Art Blades, Bat Signal and took the armor to get a custom Powdercoat Black with Red Metallic… can’t wait to get it back next week! Love this game - I’m Batman (well, maybe not, but I feel like Batman lol)
[quoted image]

Beautiful

Was it difficult to install the playfield protector?

#17366 2 years ago

Anyone know where I can buy this mod ?

#17385 2 years ago
Quoted from jfh:

First two things:
Check to make sure connecting cables aren’t loose
Swap boards 8 and 9 after setting the dip switches correctly. If your new node 9 board reports missing, the board is probably bad.
You could also try reflashing an SD card but that is a long shot.

Had the same problem, I swapped the bad node 9 with 8 and it was still showing missing 9 board. I bought a brand-new board installed it in the node 8 spot because I swapped it, everything worked fine, I powered off the machine put the glass back powered on the machine and it again was showing missing node board 9. I couldn’t believe it! I had to buy another new node board, in the end It was a loose wire that broke off the EOS switch solder joint, I re-soldered it then replaced the new node and everything works great now! Make sure you go into service mode and check for errors first!

#17386 2 years ago
Quoted from thundergod76:

One of the first things I did was add some Nelson Riddle music to my game. Especially to the Villain Escape mode. I hate the music Stern used. Here's a couple of my vids. Maybe it will inspire someone to do something even better.

This is so awesome, I have no clue on how to do this! Would love to do the same, please if possible can you let me know the process

#17391 2 years ago

Thank you Yelobird The Mod Couple, awesome mods and super fast service & delivery! Can’t wait to install these!

#17416 2 years ago
Quoted from Izzy24:

Ok, I just put my Catwoman translite back on
[quoted image]

I will buy that translite or trade for it if your looking for an original Batman 66 premium translite! Trying to collect them all

#17429 2 years ago
Quoted from Spyderturbo007:

I love my Catwoman edition, but I swear Catwoman in the translight looks more like Sigourney Weaver than it does Julie Newmar.
I just can't un-see it.

I wish we can buy all the Translites, I love love all of Franchie’s artwork and would love to have the collection on my wall lit up!

#17441 2 years ago
Quoted from Hasi:

Hello club members,
I‘m looking for a BM66 SLE coindoor decal and the two red line stickers on the lockbar.
Can somebody of the club help to get these stickers?

I think the red line sticker is just red car pin striping tape from the auto store.

#17452 2 years ago
Quoted from pghpinfan:

I’ve seen a few games modded to have a Batmobile and a Bat boat. What size/scale are you all using and how best it mount them to the playfield?

I used the Hot Wheels Classic TV series Batmobile & Batboat, bought them off of eBay, plus I am using The Mod Couple Universal Plate Mod Kit!

(Pic of mod was taken before I tightened down the nuts holding the mod)

#17455 2 years ago
Quoted from marspinball:

Anyone have any idea of the value of a Batman LE translite? I have a spare and willing to trade something for it. Problem is I have an idea of the value of items I want but no idea what it could be worth.
Thanks Martin

I will trade or buy it please, been looking for a long time with many ad’s on Pinside

#17463 2 years ago
Quoted from Thunderbird:

Re-installed Stern original Atomic Pile. Must say after having the mod couple Atomic Pile (which is okay for a 3D printed item) on it for over 2 years, the original is superior in every way, since it is not 3D printed, lights up much brighter, fits the look of the Batmobile spinner and the red glows quite well depicting an atomic reactor. Hadn’t noticed the lid/top of the Batpile is metal, with a metal signage. The glow from it is amazing and fits the motif of the game much better. If an airball ever hits it, it just rolls off without issue. The mid part of the Atomic Reactor pulses white/yellowish, so happy to have it back on and had forgotten how impressive it really looks and functions. What a game Batman 66 is and love how it shoots with such impressive features like the turntable. Gary Stern was right, it is a very expensive build for Stern to manufacture.
[quoted image]
[quoted image]

Are you now going to sell the mod? Let me know

#17472 2 years ago

Anyone have a Hi-res copy of this? Would love to print this out

Don’t know who made it

#17477 2 years ago
Quoted from bemmett:

Anyone have information on getting the Insider Connect for BM66 premium? Can't find specifics on purchasing it as it isn't listed on supported games on most retail sites.

I heard the Batman IC Kits will be available in the fall, in the meantime I guess I will just buy a retrofit kit and use the coin door method

#17499 2 years ago

I found this on Etsy and wanted to share it with you.

Stern Pinball Insider Connected QR Code Reader Coin Door Mount

<h4 style="color: #57a132;">$39.00</h4><img src="https://i.etsystatic.com/19115017/r/il/fc61b9/3490738526/il_170x135.3490738526_jwsl.jpg" style="padding:4px; border: 1px solid #cccccc; width: 170px" />

Etsy is a marketplace where people around the world connect to buy and sell unique goods.</body></html>

#17505 2 years ago
Quoted from Spyderturbo007:

Ouch. I just looked and the insider connected retrofit kit is $200. I was hoping for $100 in which case I'd buy a few. At $200 each, I think that's a hard pass for me.

Yes that’s the basic kits,

Quoted from Thunderbird:

Does anyone know how much a new metal Batman apron with IC kit is going to cost or when is it going to be released?

I would guess around $3-400 with the whole apron assembly

#17508 2 years ago

Can I update code from 0.95 to 1.06.0 ?

For some reason it’s not updating

#17510 2 years ago
Quoted from gorditas:

Do you have any interim code to try to get you over the 1.0 hump? If you continue to have problems, do you have the ability to flash an SD card? If not, send a PM and I'll mail you one for the cost of card and shipping.

I don’t have any interim code, I do have the ability to flash an SD card

#17512 2 years ago
Quoted from LouMatt:

You should be able to update...did you try another USB drive?...and also you have to have the coin door shut so it updates the node boards.

Tried 2 different 32g usb sticks, both Fat32. I downloaded the premium code , unzipped it and put the 3 files on the root! Nothing happens we I start the game! It’s just does the normal startup. I don’t know what I am doing wrong.

#17515 2 years ago
Quoted from jfh:

Try a 16GB stick and/or the other USB port.

Quoted from LouMatt:

Might want to see if you have an older USB drive laying around...those 32's are probably 3.0s. See if you have any 16gb, like suggested USB 2.0s

Thank you guys, I actually went to Bestbuy and I got lucky, they sell a 16g 2.0 5 pack for $15.99! Now the update works! Crazy how you have to have a 16gb 2.0 stick for it to wor. Thanks again everyone for the help

I would love to make a custom topper, I am going to try soon

#17541 2 years ago
Quoted from Eagle14:

The first video shows the turntable turning fine by hand, but then the 2nd video below shows how I have to manually help the motor turn the table. I've tried checking every alignment and making sure the cables are tight... No idea what to try next....

Did you check to make sure everything is tight on the motor? Looks like it’s slipping when there pressure on the motor itself

#17547 1 year ago
Quoted from docquest:

Do you have the Stern Batsignal projector topper and suffer from "IBBS" ( Itty Bitty Bat Signal)? If you have low ceilings or your game is in a corner you may unfortunately suffer from IBBS.
The hard working scientists at Docquest pinball mods have a solution for those suffering from this horrible and now preventable condition.
This kit includes a power extension cable for your Stern Batsignal projector and new super strong neodydium magnetic base with a soft felt covering that allows you to relocate your projector to a better spot.
By moving the projector to a lower spot on the metal backbox, to a rear leg, or off the side hinge of a neighboring game, you are able to get a much larger projected Batsignal image. The larger projected image will be so much nicer that even Bookworm could see it without his coke bottle glasses.
I only have parts to make 2 or 3 of these at the moment but if there is additional interest I can make more.
Note: this kit doesn't include the Stern projector itself, its only for people who already have the Stern Batsignal topper. Cost of extension kit is $25.[quoted image][quoted image]

I will take one Doc

#17549 1 year ago

Just tossing this out there!

Maybe someone one wants the Villains topper more or like it better or maybe someone has 2 of the LE toppers! You never know

Anyone interested in a trade?

I will trade the Villain’s topper for an LE topper

Franchi signed a card for me at TPF!
[quoted image]

Wow I absolutely love it! That’s awesome

#17583 1 year ago

Stern made the new apron, they put them in every new Batman off the line last month! I can’t understand why Stern didn’t make an extra 100 of these new aprons, especially when they already designed them and made them! Can’t figure it out

#17586 1 year ago
Quoted from docquest:

If you have a Stanger Things than you would have been right. On those aprons they did put a hole for the QR scanner under the price card area. [quoted image]

Time to pull out the Dremel!

#17588 1 year ago
Quoted from PinballHaven:

3D print the coin door scanner holder is a much better idea I think!

Definitely, I was just joking! I do love the Look of the new aprons with QR built in!

#17606 1 year ago
Quoted from FlippinJB:

Hello wonderful Batpeople. My Node board 10 inside the turntable has popped, and I wondered if anyone had any hints for getting at it to fit a replacement. I know I should look at the manual and try to figure it out by myself, but if anyone has done this and has any tips, that would be very appreciated. TIA.

I had the same problem, I couldn’t find the Node 10 board anywhere. Luckily I found another pinsider selling the whole turntable with a good working Node board! The swap is crazy! Honestly the engineers that come up with this stuff and fit everything into these little spaces is amazing! It’s hard to swap but very doable. I also replaced the bands inside the turntable also replaced a solenoid!

It was definitely pinball surgery

#17609 1 year ago
Quoted from jfh:

You bought an entire turntable assembly to get the node board?
It’s absolutely ridiculous that Stern has sunk this far.

Crazy I know, Stern is out of all of the node boards for so long now! It sucks

#17612 1 year ago
Quoted from FlippinJB:

TonyScoots Thanks for the pics... I have a bad feeling about this! Will document the process in case anyone else needs it down the line.
WHY did it have to be node board 10?!

Did you find an extra Node 10 board ?

Anyone get any of the Modfather shooter rods? Robin looks the best. Catwoman in first pic on his site looks nothing like Newmar. But other pics look better.

You’re right Robin looks the best, Batman is definitely not Batman 66, more like the Michael Keaton Batman

What’s the story behind these art blades? Where they designed by Franchi? Art work looks to be the same, they were very limited run and then sold out! I also heard that these blades were supposed to be installed in the SLE as an exclusive art but something got mixed up and they used the blades you can still buy now! I don’t know how true or even if it is true but it’s interesting.

If you are looking for an even more limited set of art blades good luck finding a set of these. They were designed by Franchi himself for his personal machine. They highlight a bunch of the gadgets he drew for the 120 LE machine gadget plaques. I think only 5 sets were made.

Anyone have a video of the actual Adam West call out on the SLE, I am just curious how or when it happens, also the sounds of it playing!

#17989 1 year ago
Quoted from LouMatt:

It happens when the Batphone is ringing... something like 'Tony, get the Batphone!'... pretty cool.

I have successfully added the Adam West callout to my Batman 66, using pinball browser! Now I don’t know the true way the callout is on the SLE but the way I added it is when the phone rings it plays the music then Adam west says Tony, Pick up the batphone, music is always playing in the background.

What Sound file did you substitute the callout for? The Batphone "beeping" sound? Thanks for any insight.

Any difficulty attaching the new Batmobile? I purchased a new car, myself, just a couple of days ago, and I have yet to see what will be involved with swapping the cars out. In my case, I went with a Red Line Club (RLC) Exclusive TV Series Batmobile (2008). Mattel Creations has a gorgeous steel blue version (2021) that is still available right now.
https://creations.mattel.com/products/rlc-exclusive-tv-series-batmobile-hck30
The Corgi figures are nice! I wonder if I can find someone with just the figures for inserting into my RLC Batmobile.

No not at all, I used heavy duty double sided tape by 3m, it very hard to see underneath

I would got with version 1.06. thats the last Lyman update and it doesn't have insider connect stuff. The scoreboard only shows the player that are actually playing. Version 1.08 show all 4 player regardless if they are playing or not. 1.06 and 1.08 have the same rule sets, but version 1.08 has updated insider connect.
If you are going to hook up the insider connect stuff, then go with the latests version. 1.08

Do you have a copy of 1.06 ?

#18026 1 year ago
Quoted from Thunderbird:

It’s being reported by someone as a rumor about 2 different versions of Batman. Well, it’s not a rumor, I’m actually that guy reporting it and it’s fact. Love Bat66 and was the very game that got me into pinball to begin with. Saw an SLE on location and was in love. That SLE is still playable at a location I have access to and have been there and compared the SLE to my 2016 premium and they are the same other than stickers and topper. They both play somewhat clunky, tinny sounding and feel lightweight in comparison to mid 2019 versions.
Have both iterations of Bat66 at home and they play quite differently between the old version back in 2016, which I purchased when it first came out and the newer version made in mid 2019 beginning with the Catwoman model of Batman 66. From mid 2019 going forward, all Bat66 versions from that point onward play without the “clunkiness” of the 2016 to mid 2019 versions. I’ve studied them both side by side and there are subtle differences on the PF. Even under that cabinet there are differences in tooling. However, the good news is, an older version could be outfitted like the new versions, except the cabinet, but that could be replaced as well, if you wished to go that far and had access to the stickers or pulled off the outside cabinet art or just left it on the wood and put solid plywood in the bottom and back of the machine that are not finished anyway.
Beginning 2019 with the Munsters, Stern upped their game in a major way as far as material quality goes in many areas of their builds. The old black sprayed thin MDF press board cabinets were all upgraded to solid beautiful plywood. Stern did not mention this to anyone, but any observant person could see this upon close inspection. Having spent my career involved with manufacturing on a world scale, I sent a letter to Gary congratulating him on the new improvements, which he told me he read to all his factory people as a proud turning point moment for Stern manufacturing. These improvements were not only in the joinery, but the corners had metal bracing too! My 2016 Bat66 cabinet was light, tinny sounding and feels like you could easily toss it around. Whereas my mid 2019 new cabinet joinery is much heavier, tight and has a solid feeling with tinniness gone. Cabinet does make a huge difference in overall game play and feel. Combine that with better mechanics in quite a few areas and the clunkiness from the cabinet is now gone from all Stern Bat66 machines mid 2019 onward. Thought this is a bit of interesting Bat66 history to share with everyone. What an awesome game Batman 66 is, no matter which version you may have!

So Mid 2019 and up and the new ones ?

Never mind, realized he was blacked out because I couldn't select him again. Swore I beat the mode but must have not.

yes, I feel the same sometimes, I swear I beat them but its not lit up I think its official when you see them locked up behind bars. The shoots seem like that are never ending on some of the minor villains, this is why Batman 66 is one of the best rule sets. love it

Batman 66 SLE owners update:

The Personal Adam West Call out

When I purchased the SLE I contacted Stern to register and to see if I can update to the special owners name callout by Adam West, Stern required some info from me, My Name, email address, and a photo of the SLE plaque also the serial number of my machine. After going back and forth on a few emails I was good to go, All I had to do was update to the lasted code and BAM the personal call out by Adam West was there in the game. Thank you to the Stern team for all this awesome work they do , especially with Batman 66

Cool Fact. The software knows which SLE number game it is running on, and Stern keeps a list of the game numbers and the owner's name to play the appropriate name (if available) for the specific game.

So all SLE Owners contact Stern and register your machine to get the super awesome Adam West Callout.

Quoted from JMCFAN:

Why does it say " hold the left flipper for super skill shot" on bar launch... but if you time the shot right the flipper hold seems to make no difference...???

The super skill shot when made while holding the left flipped gives you the bonus points plus starts the major villain mode and the bat phone starts ringing.

The other time shot gives you the points only.

Wanted to show a side by side comparison. The IC one looks more darker in color and it also moved the seizure warning in yellow to the bottom plus they made the Batman logo smaller!

I switched it out but will see, I kinda like them both!

Quoted from MikeHogue:

I recently picked up a cat woman premium. I know this is a longshot, but…..
Is there any chance anyone has a spare catwomen translate they would sell? Or maybe they like the regular premium translight better. I’d pay for a new premium translight for you in exchange for your catwomen original.

I am confused, didn't your Catwoman already come with the Catwoman Translite ?

Snagged a hot wheels Batmobile that I’d like to put to the left of the shooter…any tips on how best to attach one of these?

I used this from the Mod Couple

It really looks great, especially towing the Bat Boat

Just joined the club today! LE edition. Does anyone know where the LE topper molex cable connects to? I assume one end here maybe?

Welcome to the Batman 66 Club

Not sure, the wires coming down from my topper looks different

This is the inside of my SLE

Quoted from Trekkie1978:

I always go for freeze first. Then I go for bookworm (the one that keep minor villains for rest of game).
With the timers frozen, it makes it easy to complete the minor villains.

I always go for bookworm first to get the 2x multiplier then I go for freeze that way it locks the 2x in forever plus time

#18363 5 months ago
Quoted from Trekkie1978:

How does bookworm get the 2X multiplier? I thought that was only tut.

I followed Jack’s tutorial

Stern used

Jensen Dubs, they were a limited edition special speaker made by Jensen. They are now discontinued, and the only way you can buy them is on eBay.

Quoted from batman66SLE:

I just installed the new code and after a few games played normally, I can't start a new game. It says Locating pinballs and never finds them. I verified there are six balls dropped gently in the through. Ideas?

Coolest Pinside name EVER!

My SLE auto updated yesterday, games where all on for thanksgiving party, I started to play a few games and had a Slam Tilt issue while playing with the new code! Stay clear of 1.10

My favorite inside art blades, I still believe these were made for the SLE and just didn't make the cut for some reason

Wow

I have the Jazzinc Deluxe Batmobile 66 and I know a few others on Pinside also have it but does anyone have this kickass Batcave Diorama! It’s awesome, it weighs 22 lbs! Check it out

Quoted from Sutol:

Today I had a go at the spinning Batmobile on the turntable.
[quoted image]
Was fed up with how it spun compared to a freind of mines Bm66.
Initially I was thinking of removing the turntable mech to get to it but glad I went from the top down.
Go onto the service menu/diag/game/turntable and move it round so the Batmobile spinner is facing you.
If your going to give it a go you'll need another person to help just to hold the posts of the spinner with the Playfield in the upright position whilst you undo the nuts on the underside.
We held a 3/8 socket on the post which was enough to hold it to unloosen the nut.
[quoted image]
You can manually move the spinner so you can get to the nut inbetween the frame on the underside of the Playfield.
I used a 11/32 magnetic nut driver which meant I didn't lose the nut once it was off.
[quoted image]
Once both are off you can remove the base of the spinner and lower the Playfield.
You will see a spinner bracket which is held onto the spinner shaft by a set screw. I used a hex key and my nut driver over it for leverage as it was a bit tight to loosen off.
After removing the set screw you can take off the spinner bracket revealing the thrust bearing which is sat between two wahers.
[quoted image]
A
I took them out and used a silicone lube. I dropped them in the cap and give them a good coating.
[quoted image]
That was it. Replaced everything back in reverse and now it spins real fast.
Make sure when you put the spinner bracket back on you have the set screw against the flat part of the spinner shaft. If you don't the batmobile won't be centered when you finally put it back on.
Wish I'd done this long ago.
Any questions just ask. It's not as daunting as i first thought and so glad I did it today.

Quoted from Doctor6:

So I watched Eric Stone's video the other day where he wrecked batman, and noticed his batmobile spinner was spinning for days. Is there a way to "juice" this spinner? And how so? Mine spins just a few times, his spun for ever.

Thank you, I was thinking the same thing when I watched Eric, and man did he absolutely destroy Batman! This is so helpful going to do it tonight

#18646 6 days ago
Quoted from Sutol:

Did you manage to have a go at it?
This was me just testing it out by hand after it was back together.
I wish I'd videod it beforehand as it spun nowhere near the same amount by hand.
It spins just as good when a ball hits too.
Also the Batmobile I use on the spinner is a die cast version I swapped so if you've still got the plastic one that came with the game it'll spin even more freely.

wow awesome, that's the way it should spin

Go to give it a go tomorrow, will post update.

Wow so much faster! It absolutely makes a difference

Thank you Sutol for the fix

Everyone needs to do this if there Batmobile spinner is slowing down

Another great, easy to follow post. Thank you.
Just one question, where does the second metal ring go? You only show one being installed.

It goes on top of the the Red Ball bearing ring sorry forgot to post it! The ball bearing ring is sandwiched between the two metal washers
