    Quoted from Geocab:

    X-files is Sega, would any of these fit?

    The stern blades will fit your Sega game just fine. I've used them in several Sega games including batman forever, xfiles, goldeneye, Godzilla, Independence Day. I've also put the stern blades into tales from the crypt and guns n roses. So is consider the stern blades fine for that as well.

    Anyone have a pic of the "mirrored blue" in a game?

    Also curious about the side blades.. there are a bunch of color/reflectivity options but I can't find pics on the website. What do they look like in a game?

    wdpvideo,
    I hate to ask more questions about the difference, but there is a significant price difference between the "mirrored black, side mirror" and the "extrem mirror black, side blades". Could you give me a little more insight.

    It boils down to simply cost of material. The colored raw material is simply more expensive than the standard mirrored.

    What about reflectivity and clearness. It's going into STTNG...

    #107 10 years ago

    Where can I find ordering code and price?
    Thought it was coming out today.

    #108 10 years ago

    #109 10 years ago

    #110 10 years ago

    I must be missing something that did not work...? Help....
    Just like my avatar Mater ain't that bright

    #111 10 years ago
    Quoted from golfingdad1:

    Sounds good ,
    Will the code come out this Thursday? For orders on Black Friday
    Put me down for 1 set regular for my Williams Funhouse.

    Quoted from wdpvideo:

    Yes the code and price will be listed here Thursday.

    Hmmmmmm ??????? Uh maybe Mater not that dumb !

    #112 10 years ago

    I wonder how these would look on a Jurassic Park,

    Would anyone have a pic of a JP with them?
    Not sure if its the right theme for mirrors

    #113 10 years ago

    Not sure why I was thinking this Thursday also

    I was looking for a pic also. I am very curious to see how it looks.

    If it looks good, I am definitely a buyer.

    Quoted from minnesota13:

    For Thursday clarification, you are scheduling for special ordering discount code release on Thursday, November 28, that will apply only to orders placed from 12:AM CST November 29 until 12 Midnight CST November 29 effective for 24 hours. I think it is important to note the times are USA Central Standard Time.

    Yes thats correct….

    #116 10 years ago

    i thought it was last thursday

    #117 10 years ago

    I put the Stern style on my ID4 and they were perfect so you can use the Sterns for many different machines as others have said. I raised and lowered the pf more times than I can count and never had a problem. No felt or mods and just strong 2 sided tape. You just have to go slow and watch everything very closely. Don't just do the slam to get the pf back in.

    As far as how they look on this game or that game they look good. If you have a plain inside this will make any game look amazing. Colors can be cool but just seem more suited to extreme mods or if you like to go overboard then go for it. The regular mirror blades will make any game look like a million bucks.

    Quoted from wdpvideo:

    Check this post as someone has already posted the photos here.

    Ah, yeah. I see the mirrored blue photos, thanks. Still not sure of the difference between the Side Mirrors and Side Blades.

    Side blades have all these options.. some of which claim to be 'mirror' or 'reflective'.

    Black Chrome
    Blue
    Burnt Orange
    Candy Apple Green
    Dark Purple
    Extrem Mirror Black
    High Reflective White
    Mirror Red
    Plum Purple
    Red
    Super Wet Black
    Ultimate Chrome
    Yellow

    #119 10 years ago

    Side Blades are not mirrors. Not at all that is just the name of the power coat but it's not a mirror.

    Super Wet Black & Extrem Mirror Black are very close to the same. The powered coated blades will not have the
    bight lights that a Mirror does.

    #120 10 years ago

    Ready for this

    #121 10 years ago

    Do they fit the Rocky and Bullwinkle?

    #122 10 years ago

    Question for those of you who have installed these mirror blades: Do you suggest the screws (under the playfield), double-sided tape or both?

    #123 10 years ago
    Quoted from PC-Pin-NC:

    Question for those of you who have installed these mirror blades: Do you suggest the screws (under the playfield), double-sided tape or both?

    With how these things are designed, the screws (hidden by the playfield) are enough to hold the mirror in place. I installed some on one of my games two weeks ago and they seem to be in firmly seated. They aren't wobbling or anything despite the screws only being at the bottom.

    #124 10 years ago

    I have these in my TFLE and it looks amazing. If anybody has put them in any of the games listed below, let me know how it turned out, and post some pics if ya got em. Some games just don't make sense with too much stuff along the edges blocking the reflection. Thanks in advance..........and HAPPY THANKSGIVING !!!!!

    2. Star Wars Data East
    3. F14 Tomcat
    4. Earthshaker

    #125 10 years ago

    does anyone know if these fit Data East games?

    #126 10 years ago

    Yes, we have Data East, they will fit. Check back tomorrow for the codes. There will be a new post however, we will post a link here to get you there. Keep in mind you can only use 1 code at a time. Example: You want to order 1,2,3,4 or so, on regular Sterns the code will work fine. You want to order 1, 2, 3, 4 of the colored mirrors that code will work. However, you want to order one of each. That won't work. You will have to place two different orders (sorry). The code will work on mix & match as a manufacture. Example: 1 Stern Regular mirror & 1 Williams Regular yes the code will work. 1 Stern Blue/Black/Gold & 1 Williams Regular "No" it will not work.

    Here is whats on Sale for Black Friday.

    Shooter Rods - NO
    Pinball Side Blades - NO
    Backbox Reflectors - NO

    Stern - Regular Mirrors & Stern Colored Mirrors - YES
    Bally/Williams - Regular Mirrors & Colored Mirrors - YES
    Data/East - Regular Mirrors - YES

    There is only so much stock of the product. If you put a product in your cart and go to check out and the product disappears from the cart "It's SOLD OUT" Your colored mirrors like blue could be the first gone as the overhead on that color is low. Check Back tomorrow for the codes.

    #128 10 years ago

    #132 10 years ago

    Just tried to order regular bally/williams mirror blades with the code and nothing happens. Still same price. It does not disappear so I'm assuming they are not sold out. Anyone else having trouble with the code?

    #133 10 years ago

    The discount will show up as you proceed to check out. I had the same issue, but the discounted price was shown on the itemized page with the shipping fee

    #134 10 years ago

    Gotcha thanks!

    #135 10 years ago

    Yeah Having Trouble code does not work went to check out, discount did not reduce the price.

    Quoted from R4840:

    The discount won't show up in the cart but once you've entered the code and your zip info for shipping, look below and the total should reflect the discount.

    #137 10 years ago
