I picked up a beautifully modded Premium with May 2022 build date. The game plays sweet and has the nicest playfield clearcoat that I have gotten on any Stern to date. With just a little tweaking I have the snikt target to where a clean shot makes the ramp literally every time. The katana ramp is like butter with no tweaking at all. The only thing that frustrates me is the Colossus mini loop shot. It seems to clunk a lot and very rarely makes the shot clean enough to hit the jackpot target. Looking at the shot guide rails it doesn't look like there is a lot to adjust there and I couldn't find anything specific in this thread. Is this just a clunky shot or is there some way to tweak this for smoother flow? Thanks.

Quoted from Jedi_Gill:
I finally put my Colossus character in. I really love the way this turned out. The pose, the ball being the right size. Totally better than the plastic insert I had.

And here is a closeup for anyone wondering.

I assume you glued his articulating arms and legs in that in that position to hold the weight of the ball up and stay stiff?

Quoted from punkin:
Just goes to right flipper on mine. Bend the rail, change something, tune it..

Yeah I can't say I have ever had a drain this way. I've been paying closer attention for the last couple dozen plays and mine just goes to the right flipper also. May 2022 build, maybe the rail is "tuned"?

There are a lot of cool mods for this game. I bought mine with a lot in place already including the Day One required quiet fan and real knocker. I did a "mod to a mod" by putting real 50 AE caliber bullets in place of the 3D printed ones. One mod that really stands out to me that I put in is the Pin Monk colorizing light brackets. I bought all three sets of brackets and it really makes a huge difference. Those plain white inserts just look so wrong they stand out like a sore thumb. Colorizing all of those inserts is a night and day improvement.

Quoted from punkin:
I've never once looked at the insert lights. Why would you?

It's literally directly in your field of view. You can't not look at them and still play the game. Now whether you pay attention to them or not is a different story. Your eyes still still color vs lack of color.

Quoted from Gruven:
Has anyone seen this issue with the katana lock? Occasionally the post is getting stuck in the down position. The seam between the plastic down post and the metal rod is catching on the plastic nyliner. I tightened all the screws under the playfield and messed with the coil power to no avail. If the post stays centered, it slides freely. But, it has enough play in it that it can rub the nyliner and stick. Sadly, I never looked closely at the assembly before the problem started so I’m not sure if anything looks different now. [quoted image]

I had that problem and it was frustrating. Often it let two balls go instead of one and fooled the game into a 2 ball multiball where it should not have been.

I fixed it by removing the plunger and grinding down the metal at the seam area so there was no longer a lip in the metal to catch on. I did it VERY carefully using a grinding wheel and then cleaned it up with some sand paper to be completely smooth. Once reinstalled it was smooth as silk and I couldn't even manually manipulate it to make it stick.

Quoted from flynnibus:
Anyone had problems with the kitana sword lock post binding on itself?
We just added a second deadpool and in this new premium the post for the sword lock keeps binding in the nyliner ring in it’s bracket. It seems the nylon post is smaller than the plunger enough that it creates a shoulder on the post. That shoulder hangs up on the bracket thag keeps the post centered.
