Be sure to get the full kit. It looks so much nicer with the clear drops.

No stickers included though. I'll probably put an order in tonight and get the ninja stars too.
I just placed an order for this kit with the clear drop targets. Can’t wait to install it!

You'll love it! It really brightens up the mid playfield. The first time I lit them up it glowed red as I expected. But what really blew me away was they also interact with the existing Lil DP multicolor light. They change the drops to peach, watermelon, yellow. Really cool!
I am not sure if there is already a solution for this, but I finally grew tired of the ball bouncing off the katana when you hit the left orbit on the premium/LE.
I designed a simple little sleeve that extends the ball catch by 30mm or so to ensure that the shots are redirected to the katana and not the middle of the playfield. I printed it in grey TPU which matches the ramp and is firm enough to deaden the bounce.
If there is interest, I could release the design for others. I could also sell them on my Pinside shop. Anyway, I figured I would toss it out here just to see if anyone else would benefit.
Let me know what everyone thinks.

The ball on my katana rarely drops off. A perfectly level game, seems to correct the issue. But occasionally the ball does fall off (ball speed, multiple balls on ramp).
So, you can put me down for one. I would need one made. I don’t have a 3D printer.
The more common solution seems to be adding some dead drop foam near the existing rubber:

alternatively:

and while I can't find the post that gave me the idea - I added a post from a Comet spotlight kit and threw a post sleeve over it. Haven't ever had a single ball fly off the katana and it doesn't really effect the speed of the loop at all.

Quoted from Lucxor:So i am back.
My last prototype is finished.
I like it the most, because it has a rounder shape and that looks great.
So we have:
No. 1 the chunky
No. 2 the elegant
No. 3 the round
Also the color filters arrived and I was able to test them. Very easy replaceable and a cool feature.
I wil take the round shape as final.
Only thing I have now to decide, with wich metal part and wich rope guide I will continue.
What do you like best?[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
I like all of these. Please put me down for whatever the final design is.
Quoted from Xdetroit:Any distributors have a DP pro in stock? I’d like to join the club
My distributor here in Ohio is out, but I’m told they’re going back on the production line in November. I’ve put down a deposit to reserve one because supplies will be limited.
Quoted from Aniraf:I like all of these. Please put me down for whatever the final design is.
Hello Aniraf
I worked on the final one today and if all fit, then i upload pictures in the next days.
Quoted from awesome1:29 Million Deadpool MXV Secret Skill Shot!
that's some fancy shooting
Quoted from wtatumjr:I'm so sorry this took so long but the effort has been well worth it to light up that dark middle area a bit. The main light is red but changes to orange, green, etc according to the light that's already in the Lil DP area behind the drops .
These should be ready shortly from Mezel. I have no financial interest in this, I'm only the idea guy and test fitter . My guess is this kit will be about $50. I trimmed the stickers to let more light thru but you can use the whole sticker if you like it a bit darker.

You will have to trim your existing decals to get it exactly like mine. It only takes a minute with scissors.

I made a Deadpool pinball shirt.
Let me know if you’re interested.
Those folks in the sweatshirts look really happy.

They are, it's because they got pinbrawler merch on.

I put them out on my Pinside shop if you (or anyone) would like me to print one...buying it there ensures Pinside is able to make money off the purchase . https://pinside.com/pinball/market/shops/1326-ninjacamp-mods/05345-deadpool-ball-adjuster.

Ordered thanks
Hey guys, I'm waiting on delivery(hopefully this week) of my Deadpool premium. I'm familiar with the Katana ramp washer fix but not so up with the Wolverine spinner problem. What is the problem with it and the fix, thanks.

The ball guide behind that spinner can also dig into the clear and if left unattended can chip some of the clear and paint off behind it. Chances are any chips will be covered by the plastic back there but good prevention with a few washers if you are doing the Katana guide at the same time.
You may also want to address the left ramp as the straight edges that sit on top of the playfield can also eat into the clear and also cause chipping.
Given you have a brand new Prem the end of the Katana guide with the blue nub on it may be adjusted from the factory to reduce wear in that spot specifically. However I would still put washers down as the middle part of the guide can still dig into the clear. You'll see powder start to come up around the bottom edges of the guide.
Hello all
Here is the final result.
The handle is easy to install and fits perfectly. I make it with durable material. It is a little overkill but better safe then sorry. I can offer it for 85 dollars including shipping because shipping from switzerland to the USA is very expensive but its fast (1-2 weeks).
(If you are a Group or want more, price drops because i can send Several with same shipping)
I would need one more week to produce them.
Various color filters are included.
Pm me if you are interested.
Best regards Luc

I had a weird thing today with my Deadpool, it was on most of the day and I just walked into my gameroom and all the games were on except Deadpool. I turned it off and on again and the topper came on but the rest of the game was dead. I turned off the power and checked the fuse in the powerbox and it was fine. I put it back in and turned it on again and it came back up.
I am happy it is working again but was wondering if this was a known issue or indicative of some other problem.

First of all the end product looks so nice, you really did a great job. That is so much less of a chonker than the Mezel version. Would $85 USD also be the all in shipping price to Canada?
Are there any other Deadpool owners on Vancouver Island or the Lower Mainland that wanna go in on this to save shipping?

Yes it is the same price for Canada.

Thank you for your support!
Speaking of Katana handles..'just got a test request for a new one. I haven't a clue what it looks like but will let y'all know when I receive it. Anybody having a "dream" handle in mind add your input and I'll pass it along.

Competition makes the market innovativ. Always a Win for all Deadpool owners
Also recomed to finish the led mod.
You had a great Idee with the sticker but don't add it to the selling mod.
Create some sticker for that droptarged and add it to the mod. Please forward that to mezelmod.
The stickers for the drops have the Deadpool image so I imagine you'd get into a copyright mess. Also they'd need to be die cut which is another step. I took a razor and separated the sticker, it's very easy. Then scissor cut the background from the Deadpool head...took about a minute for each cut out. The only thing I would change is I put the sticker back in the original position. I would lower the image another 1/4 inch. That way the average adult can see the whole Deadpool image from the players position.
I like the most excellent job done on the Katana handle!
If I were buying a set I have to imagine it would be easy enough to just print your own custom stickers, either at home or at a Kinkos assuming the cashier person isn't going to give a rip about any copyright issues. Would maybe be nice to have the originals on hand with their stickers in place should you ever need or want to swap them back out.

Okey that's a very good reason, I have not thought of the Copyrigth.
I would just wouldn't like to have to cut Orginale stickers, but they can be also reordered from Stern ^^ so this would be an option.
Thanks for your compliment. I have thought to implement a Led in to the handle that changes the colors as on the playfield, but have not yet found a way without soldering. Will perhaps add this in future.
If there is someone how could help me that would be nice as i am not that good in electric.
Quoted from wtatumjr:Here's the light strip which plugs in. You can select length, color, frosted or clear lens.
[quoted image]
This lighten up an Led bar but does not change the color rigth?
This is for one color only but you get to pick the color. The ones that change color are a but more involved.
Quoted from wtatumjr:This is for one color only but you get to pick the color. The ones that change color are a but more involved.
I know. I think this would be the best place to attach a multicolor led. only way is to take it from the cables or solder it direct tho the board.
But solderin isn't very user friendly. i Like mods wich are easy to add but also easy to get back to stock.
So i looking for a way to get the leds atacht to this board without solder it.
Quoted from Flynnyfalcon:Put me down for one of those handles!! Looks great!!
Thanks. I will.
Quoted from wtatumjr:Comet pinball has a connector with spring loaded alligator clips.[quoted image]
I am not a fan of alligator clips in a pinball with vibration. If that thing fall off and touches a electronic part it shouldn't, the game coul be damaged.
I need to find the board where it is Atached and would need a splitter for that. But I don't know if this is possible and if diods are needed for safety.
