I have a Spider-Man VE coming, and it's time to order stuff. Are there any protectors I should order? I know a lot of the cliffys come with the VE that people have installed on their OG SM, but is it missing anything?

-I'm getting the shooter lane protectors.

Does the pinbits plastic set work for the VE? I'm not sure if all the plastics are the same. Anything else?

Thanks in advance! I can't wait to be playing my spidey

By the "3rd piece" do you mean the L bracket that goes next to the leveling bubble?

Also does that not have service rails? It looks like it's up on posts

So, they put a metal protector on a metal rail? That's interesting

I wish this thread was more active. It's sad that there's only 200 posts in a Spider-Man club. Especially with the VE out.

Let's see some pics of your games, mods, high scores, broken stuff, etc.

I can't wait to see it!

Does anyone know if SM has the same code AFM has, where you could get another sandman completion by hitting that trapped ball into the hole during multiball?

That clear coat looks awesome! I'm so glad stern is putting better clear on their games now

About 6700

Yeah, delivered to your door.

Can someone tell me what the difference between Spider-Man black and red is? Besides the art package, chrome trim, and the smaller run.

Thanks! There's a huge price difference, so I thought there might be more I was missing. Must just be the rarity and sweet art package

I wonder why the black version isn't on the top 100. It's ranked at #7 if you look at the specific game page, but doesn't show up on the list.

Congrats. I'm literally waiting on my porch for my VE to show up right now.

Boom just showed up

Got my spidey in place. It needed a tiny adjustment on the right orbit ball guide, but that's it. The clear looks incredible and it plays smooth as butter.

It definitely plays a little easy. Has anyone here removed the post or made their game super steep to help make it more of a challenge? I'm about 20 games in and have gotten to battle royal 3 times.

Is your VE playfield numbered? I noticed mine has 2 stickers with (Spider-Man 172)and (#30 of 410).Is this common on sterns? My Metallica doesn't have anything like that

Nice lineup!

Are you sure you weren't playing AC/DC or Metallica on vpinball?

That's interesting. Were they all Spider-Man theme songs?

You can definitely get one for 6700 new, shipped to your door. Just call some distributors for availability. If that's still too much, but you can swing 5k, yiu could always get an original SM and out a shaker in it.

How does the ball return to your flippers on a right orbit shot?
When I make the full loop the ball nicks the rubber post by the green goblin targets and goes right down the drain. I replaced the rubber with a different size and have the same issue. If I remove the rubber completely I'm sure it would return to the left flipper.
Does anyone else have this problem?

Cool! Thanks, I'll try this! I thought about moving that metal rail, but it didn't look like it would have any slack.

I don't see any difference for the lit 2x and the lit3x inserts on the VE. I don't know how much it really affects gameplay anyway. You know what shots are multiplied and you're shooting them regardless.

Wow, how many plays did that happen in?

Does it feel like the playfield is dented?

I looked last night and didn't think I had the same dent on mine, but it's there. It's just not as obvious, yet..

This is correct. After completing all the white inserts, all the shots will flash. The first one you hit will be 2x until the end of the ball. The same flashing happens after a mode is completed. The next shot is 3x scoring.

It all depends on if there’s a person near you looking for a spiderman with those mods.
I think you’ll have an easier time removing as many mods as possible and pricing the game lower
Right now it’s a buyers market. I recently sold a perfect SMVE with 200 plays, plastic protectors, and titan bands for $5800 and it took more than a month to sell.

Nope. Same rules. They just changed the names of the modes.

Check if the correct coil is installed on your VUK.

I would play with the height of the magnet before altering the protector.

I am unfamiliar with how thick the protectors are. But if it’s significant, could you cut a hole where the magnet is and raise the magnet to be level with that surface?
