Quoted from flynnibus:Pins of the various eras typically range from about 200-300lbs. Just get a normal appliance handcart - like this
https://www.harborfreight.com/600-lb-capacity-appliance-hand-truck-60520.html
CCr I don't know the exact weight, but it's peers are usually less than 300lbs.
I have this one with the "tank" treads on the back as all of my machines need to go down exterior stairs to the game room. This has been a workhorse, I don't like the straps on it though and prefer to use ratchet straps, they feel safer.

Quoted from Mrsiyufy:I have a few of these saloon style barrel cup holders left. They go great with this theme. PM me if you are interested. [quoted image][quoted image]
Can they only be mounted on the front or can they go on the side?

Quoted from alveolus:Even better!
57 in 6 days
Is CGC a 5/6/7 day work week because if they are just M-F then 57 in 5 days means we could be done with the 500 SE's in less than 3 weeks. Somewhere between the 17th and 24th of May. LE's at the beginning of June is looking very possible just like jfh said.
Quoted from Mrsiyufy:Thank you for the kind words!
I have 8 of the original brown cup holders ready to ship. PM me if you want one. I also have 1 walnut ( lighter brown) available. And 1 olive green (someone custom ordered one for a POTC CE and I made a 2nd one). Custom colors are available. [quoted image]
Bumping this as I just received mine. I was on the fence for the price but it is super sweet!

Quoted from ClassicHornet:Thought they had 5 lines ? Or; are all five running ?
Maybe they are building all the LE’s now so that when the toppers are done they ship a few hundred out at a time?

CCR LE UPDATE:
Planetary Pinball finally got notice that the limited editions are starting to ship in about 1 to 2 weeks. We have already started to send out notices to customers, as we go down the list.
If you have not been notified with a final balance, then your game is not ready at this time and please continue to wait.
It will still be quite a process, as we will get games in batches and we will notify customers as we continue to receive games.
Please hold back from asking “where you are in line” as again we are getting games in batches and we can only go down the list so quickly… if you have not been notified with a final balance, we have not gotten to your game - so please continue to wait.
In the meantime, please reply back with your cell phone number (# for the driver on delivery day).
Game pickups are not available at any location. All games are drop shipping from Cicero, IL 60804 directly to you, again no pickups allowed – no expectations.
A big “THANK YOU” for everyone's patience during this process, it has been quite a wait.
If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask. The question I can't answer is:
“when are you going to get your game”
because again, I don't know how long everything will take… but the great news is, LE’s are finally shipping.
I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Quoted from insight75:Yup...PPS. I emailed Sara the same day she originally indicated they would have spots available. Deposit was 11/2/21
Mine was done the same day so here is to hoping I am in the next batch!

Quoted from chillme:This what was posted at the end of August. I sent email a day later on 9/1 to put my name on the list. There was never a commitment at this time. Email came 11/1 for the initial deposit, game had been revealed and pricing was out. At that time you had to commit to your slot and put your money down. Nothing was blind. [quoted image]
I also emailed on 8/31 to get on the list. Never bough a NIB game before, didn't know any distributors, don't flip, just stayed hot on the trail, read every post on this and other threads and jumped on the opportunity.
I’ve been known to say you have two options, you can have it now or you can have it right.
I almost always choose right.

Quoted from Medic:I haven’t see anything posted on cointaker bf sale. Sale starts on Friday you think?
In the BF thread they said already on sale 10% off, cheaper than I saw anywhere else last night.
Sorry for sending this thread down a new path.
Ordered two pieces of Voodoo for basically one PDI shipped. Time to get back to videos and pics this weekend and hopefully I get invoiced next week (never said that before).
Happy thanksgiving!
Quoted from Hayfarmer:Who did you order from, need a few here as well
Coin Taker, had to pay sales tax in PA but under $250/each shipped.

Quoted from Litedpinballmods:Everyone felt the price of an LE was a great value in 2021. I am pretty happy about getting a great machine with a topper in 2023 at a great 2021 price.
Stern Elvira went up roughly $2k during the same time period.
Quoted from Zukidog:83.75 inch to the topper's tallest backdrop point (center back) Bart's hat is pretty much level with that 83.75 mark too. His arms swing .75 inch above bart's hat. So, 84.5 inch tall at max point of gun slinging from what I can tell. With the peaks and valleys, you can fit this between two 16 on center floor joists nicely (if you have low basement ceilings) the two LOWEST points on the topper at 82.75 inch - 12inch spacing on center.

What's the pitch on your machine? 6.5 degrees?
Quoted from underlord:I have only enough space for one boxed pin in my garage. No pin room left. Not sure what to do. Trade my LE spot back to CGC or keep it stuffed away for awhile?
P-Town knows about my MMRRE troubles right now. I want to keep them all!
Find a friend to keep it for you?

Quoted from Only_Pinball:You would think it would have to be. They took a deposit of $2500 and then change the price, wow. Do you already have the game? If so I would concider doing a charge back on your CC stating they over charged you by $3250.
This right here…….

Seeing more posts about PPS games shipping had me thinking to look back into when I received my invoice and put my deposit down.
On my original invoice is says CCR-1220 can anyone verify or debunk that this will be my LE #?
If this is true I still have a long way to go and I am going to buy something else. Anyone receive their game from PPS care to comment?
Quoted from bigd1979:I was told it went by when the deposit was made. So check your deposit invoice for a number .. and maybe those who received their pin from pps can say what deposit number they were...
Quoted from nvu4prod:Looked at my initial $1,000 deposit to PPS on 11/2/21, Invoice #279. I received CCLE on 2/1/23 and with LE #184, so I don't think there is correlation between the two.
Deposit made 11/3/21 7:46pm Eastern
Invoice was 361
S.O. (Sales Order) # was 1220
So no correlation but if bigd1979 is right I should be no worse than 4 more batches of game behind (assuming all invoice numbers are CCrLE orders).
Thanks all for the help!
Quoted from midcoastsurf:LE's getting into the 300's this week? Let's go!
Someone just mentioned 399, not sure where the last 100 went? Overseas?
Quoted from jfh:I probably shouldn’t bother responding to such a bastion of positivity but …
CGC has 5 projects in progress. Not everything is single threaded. That said I’m pretty sure resources were diverted from PF to CCr (including software team resources for the CCr upgrade) to the extent that Pulp Fiction, planned to be announced last year (fall?) was delayed. So you have it backwards - some projects are being delayed to help CCr, not the other way around.
Quoted from transprtr4u:Please enlighten us with your inside information...
CCr
CCr upgrade
PF

What’s #5?

Quoted from undrdog:Please post a good picture of the mirrored bg. So far the publicity pics I’ve seen make it hard to tell where the mirroring is, besides the puddles. Or is that it?
Honestly pictures don't do it justice you have to see it in person. The mirrored is more than the puddles.
When my game gets delivered today and I install it later I will upload a pic with it in the game.
Quoted from LTG:I sent you a PM. Please send me an email at the address in there and I'll email you back a PDF to help you.
Thank you.
LTG : )
LTG- Same issue on my game that arrived today. PM'ing you as well.
Quoted from LTG:Email PDF sent.
LTG : )
Some issues with the mine sensor, LTG quick to help as usual, sent over a pdf to help, and once we took it out and wiped the sensor off it was almost perfect.
Now I did have enough ceiling height but the topper is a little obstructed, seems like a new project will be coming!

It was the sensor not the shaft raising and lowering that sounds like something different.
BS8, from underneath.

I of course don’t have any #6 3x8 screws to install the knocker.
Is #6 1/2 too long?
If not to the store I go!
Quoted from dog:Last numbers delivered were in the 600’s. That was 2 weeks ago. Any updates on what was delivered this week?
I saw someone on FB selling 686 I think it was definitely 68x.
Quoted from ray3127:One of the art blades on my new LE was not applied properly, and though I made it look better it is still not as smooth as it should/could be.
I sent a ticket in this afternoon and received a response from CGC 32 minutes later. They are sending me a new art blade.
It sounds like some people have not been helped as quickly as they should have, but for me (today), the service exceeded any other pinball company I've ever dealt with (which is all of them).
Granted, sending out a new art blade is relatively easy. But still, based on some of the chatter on here, I was half-expecting to be ghosted. So I was pleasantly surprised and wanted to share my positive experience.
I will 2nd a great experience and response time from LTG first and then bumped to a ticket. It was open and closed within 2 weeks.
It was regarding a faulty sensor under the mine.

Knocker installed!
It took all of 5 mins to install.
Use 3/8" gold screws.
The holes are already there!
There is NO software to enable (though it says its diabled), IT JUST WORKS!
Turn off the FAKE knocker sound in the menus...
Does it sound WAY better, YES!
Is it worth it? YES!
Agreed on all fronts, I did mine this week as well. So awesome.

Quoted from Lethal_Inc:Just turn them off. I thought they were way too bright and blinding.
I put the defuser over them even at -3, so now you get the effect without a seizure.
Played one at location Thursday night and asked the operator to do the same, it was seriously blinding.
Quoted from Pinball_Eddie:Where did you get your diffuser?
Amazon- small kit maybe $6-9 and used it for a few other things around the house. It comes in multiple sizes or you can cut to fit.
Quoted from Pinball_Eddie:Thanks, I am assuming you are referring to something like this:
https://a.co/d/ibK2GRc
I was looking for something similar to what CGC sometimes sends out, but theirs is that white plastic sheet. I wanted to use one for the translite box on my AFMR LE since there are spots on the translite that are translucent (see-through) and you can see the LED’s and they’re pretty harsh\blinding. I tried asking a few people familiar with CGC but they didn’t know so I created the thread below, but no responses yet:
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/cgcs-plastic-white-light-diffusers#post-7624281
Thanks again and hope all the fathers out there have a great Father’s Day.
Yep, that’s it or very similar, so it will work.

Quoted from transprtr4u:Thank you! Same way I feel!
Shame really well built product, pretty game, just a complete debacle for a build. Very sad .. however very curious to see this thru to end ,
Guessing it will get more interesting as the 3rd quarter PF release is right around the corner.
Applause from all as the next remake if one will not be on my list . Will avoid all the BS and just buy one from the secondary market or dealer stock,seeing as those smart folks didn't have the frustration with the wait of release and great updates for the past year and a half plus .
Lesson learned .
Next remake you don’t want or not even want to deal no matter what it is? If it’s the former what’s your “guess” on remake number 5?
Quoted from whoknowsgoi:yes it does. how do I open a ticket?
I had an extra yellow button, I just swapped it out, and works fine now. Maybe do that while you wait if you have an extra.

Quoted from CUJO:That's funny. I own a SJ too and girlfriend loves it as well. In fact, she has the hi score on it.
Finally got it back up and running after it being down for about 6 months.
She likes my CCLe too but the lights get annoying in multiball (strobing).
We have to play it with room lights on.
SJ is highly underrated IMHO.
Put a piece of defuser over the strobes, a much better!

Quoted from Damonator:There's still around 250 of us left waiting on our CCLEs. My guess is 6 more months to finish the CC run.

Quoted from RaoulJuke:My Cactus LE arrived today unplayable which is really disappointing.
Went through instructions, set up topper as described, turned on and powered up - by no Playfield Lights were working. The balls and the rubbers on the game looked dirty and old. Started a game - no coils. no balls ejecting. no flippers. went into test mode - fippers show as activating, but they are definitely not activating.
Anyone got anything to offer in regards to help? Pretty disappointed. Most exepnsive pinball i've ever purchased was just delivered basically bricked
GI lights are working and the train and mine move on power up. but thats it. have i missed something?
Submit a ticket, while it obviously sucks CGC service has been great for the few who have had issues.
