Following, just bought a James Bond Pro after calling it a turd. Will hang to see the final product as my interest for this mod is there.

Quoted from stewdogg:Lol, said the same about you in that thread, whoops... What changed your mind or still a turd?
Played it again with the code updates and it was better. It's getting to be a polished turd. I bought it mainly to have in my shop for customers. A Sean Connery Bond pinball has always been a desired title for me. I guess I was disappointed at the reveal. I do like the idea of the ramp being moved and going around the rocket. More to come I guess.
Quoted from stewdogg:Lol, said the same about you in that thread, whoops... What changed your mind or still a turd?
Yeah, they shut that thread down due to that little incident.....kinda a head scratcher as to why the mods did that.
I think many are waiting on this one to see the final product. Once this is complete and people see the difference, you will be in for a shit ton of orders. This is a very different mod than normal, you are literally changing the game. People need to see it in action.
Loganpinball , This now looks awesome. I am in, put me on the list for one.
Quoted from Loganpinball:Even when the price was under $300 I only had 4 people. So, I really understood that going higher would kill the mod, but I cant do it for less. And with so little demand it seems it is just a failed mod for those reasons
Again, you need to give this one time. This isn't a flashy, lighted up LED piece of plastic that is $150. This one will need time for people to see it and play it to see the difference it will make. I certainly would not call this a failure at this point which is still early on. Then, to make sure you have your ass covered, make lists and do it in batches of 10.
Quoted from Loganpinball:I would trade it for a star wars premium comic version!
And from now on I wont be showing the designs or builds on pinside. I will only post a finished mod in a for sale ad or owners forum. Everything else I make or attempt to make is going on instagram Loganpinball.
Thanks, Jay
Dude, said from day 1 it was a cool looking mod that could potentially change the opinions of this game. I called the game a turd. Your reactions though? I don't know if you need a box of kleenex or a therapist, but the whining is childish at best.
If you think I am insulting you by saying that your whining over this whole thing is childish, then well, be insulted. I was pointing out the obvious. You came here with a great idea and had no skin to take any feedback or critique, just kept whining over peoples reactions and you were scrapping this and only doing that. You wanted no part of realizing this was a mod that was going to take some time for Bond Pro owners to accept. Instead, you complained about everyone and in the middle of it all decided you needed to do a Ghostbusters mod instead. You are victim to your own choices. Sorry dude, but you go to put some big boy pants on when offering a wildly game changing mod. Not all ideas are instant hits.
Quoted from Nicholastree:Rule #1 on Pinside: Be Nice.
You didn't have to insult the OP. You CHOSE to insult the OP. No one was better off for it.
I'm a Bond LE owner so I never had reason to buy this mod but I was curious about it, imagined that it was difficult to pull off, and was rooting for the OP to succeed. I'm sorry he didn't. I imagine he spent a lot of time working on this and deserves some sympathy for the effort, not the "kick him while he's down" comments you contributed.
What possible benefit are your comments supposed to provide? Anonymously calling a stranger a "whiner" and "childish"? What does that make you? Not any more of a Man than him, IMO.
Yes, shame on me for having a point of view on how things went down. Sorry, but it was childish. I am taking all my toys and going home.
