Quoted from Flack:

What is the resale of a pin with colorDMD? What % of the upgrade cost Is recovered when selling? If low, do people remove and sell without it?

People almost never want to pay you for the mods you put in a machine, at least that's my experience. If selling a pin with ColorDMD just list it for say $5000 with ColorDMD and $4500 without, right up front in the add. Chances are you will be keeping the ColorDMD which is ok because there are so many other games you can put it in and so much more to come.

Quoted from Rarehero:

It does, though.
You can put FGY code on Shrek (or vice versa). So - if FGY was colored, and you put the FGY rom on a Shrek - you could play color FGY code on Shrek.

Sorry, you're right. I misunderstood and was thinking you were saying if you had one of them that was colorized and then swapped the code it would also be colorized.

Quoted from PW79:

I know it's weird but I just can't buy a Color DMD until they are available for the all games I own
To have a color LOTR, color TSPP & a plain ass FGY DMD would irk the piss out of my OCD & I'd likley play FGY less because of it which is just unacceptable because I love FGY
The 2 games on my wish list are already colorized IIRC or at least in the pipe which makes it even worse lol
Cmon, FGY it up!

+1

But if TSPP and FGY both have ColorDMD, I'll want one for South Park as well.....vicious cycle!

I've only sold one game that had a ColorDMD installed. I made it clear the game was $400 less if I took it out of the game. The buyer kept it in.

I think ColorDMD is one of the few mods that you can recover the cost on. Once people see it in a game, very few are going to want to go back to a stock DMD.

+1 I haven't sold a game with one installed, but I have seen the same trend.

#356 8 years ago

My philosophy when buying a game that has CDMD in it is this:

I can always use extra parts. When the seller gives me an option to put the original orange display back in, I always go that route and then buy a CDMD afterwards. It saves $400 off the initial large purchase amount, and I gain an extra orange display to put in another pin or whatever if I need it down the line.

2 weeks later

I'm ready to hear about the next release once the next batch of displays are shipping.

#358 8 years ago
Quoted from PinballManiac40:

Well, one thing is for certain, it won't be for either of my two games.

#359 8 years ago

JackBot please.

#360 8 years ago

#361 8 years ago
Quoted from TunaSled:

Jackbot please.

+1 Just picked one up about a month ago and would love to have it in color!

#362 8 years ago

Thanks again for AC/DC and MET. Really i'm in paradise but.......... Tron should be the next hehehehehe

Great job Randy and friends

#363 8 years ago

I hope there is a new release coming out with the new batch of displays that should be shipping next week.
Bring on the color !!!

Agreed.....I'm feeling WCS, or FGY ( only because I NEED both)

#365 8 years ago

Plenty in the works, last in progress one I saw looked pretty sweet.

#366 8 years ago

Finally back in stock! I bought three of them and can't wait for them to get here!

#367 8 years ago

Just bought one for Metallica! Can't wait! \m/

Mind telling us which one?

Quoted from PinballManiac40:

Won't even drop a hint, sorry, that's ColorDMD's deal. I will say it wasn't a game they've announced yet, no idea when it will be released.

Does it start with an "X"? If so I have to order my first ColorDMD

Im with you on that, im saving up some $$ to buy my first and will have it just tie in with pinballtoppers speaker lights until mean time.

#372 8 years ago

I'm hoping the first Whitestar is for mine!

#373 8 years ago
Quoted from Matt_Rasmussen:

I'm hoping the first Whitestar is for mine!

but they've already done LotR (modified whitestar)

#374 8 years ago

I just bought 3 and there going in games at the Pintastic New England free play area!

#376 8 years ago

I wonder if they will ever support the smaller DMDs on the early Data East games, like Batman and TMNT?

Great so now both ColorDMD and Aurich are teases.....

Ripley's!!!

#381 8 years ago

TFTC would look awesome... All those animations in the game...

#382 8 years ago

Has GNR been mentioned? That game deserves one! Also wwfrr

#383 8 years ago

I'm dying for a color dmd for The Shadow, can we start a GoFundMe to get it going. PLEASE ???

#385 8 years ago
Quoted from QuarterGrabber:

Yeah a ColorDMD for X-Files would be great, totally agree!!

#386 8 years ago

A colordmd for Tales from the crypt and Gateway would be great too !

#387 8 years ago

What is your next plan, Randy?

Well they just announced The Getaway today. Wow, you got next day service

1 week later
#390 8 years ago
Quoted from TigerLaw:

When will the next one be announced?

Would it be silly to say "hopefully soon"?

#391 8 years ago

Tron, STLE, WPT, IM, Kiss

#392 8 years ago

Well... bought one for T2. Hope they colorize it some day. Until then the color changing to the game will have to do.

#393 8 years ago

Fitted one to Tron last night, with a non-reflective DMD plastic - i like it set to white for now... Fingers crossed for the Colour ROM by Christmas!

#394 8 years ago

WWF Royal Rumble all the way. You see how quickly guys bought up the translite improvement?

#396 8 years ago
Quoted from TigerLaw:

When will the next one be announced?

We're turning into greedy little bastards aren't we? Announce one, a few days later we're back with our hands out, going "more?".

I just picked up a White Water, so I've got a new ColorDMD capable game to outfit. Tide me over while I wait for Tron and Shadow.

#397 8 years ago
Quoted from Matt_Rasmussen:

The Simpson's Pinball Party is Whitestar.

Heck yea, we are hobbyists in a collectables market...and an oddball collectables market at that where modifying the collectable isn't only okay it is actually preferred. We will never be satisfied till a real UFO actually lands on top of our games as a topper.

And then some dope will be like, "Yo, you guys bring any of them cool Batteries Not Included guys with you?"
