Count me in. I have been wanting one for probably 2 years now and finally pulled the trigger.

Game actually kind of fell into my lap and it may actually be HUO? Condition sure looks like it as it only has minor (very minor) flipper button wear on the left side and none on the right.

Speaking of, where can I fine the double hole lollipop new rail for that side? I would like to put these on to proactively protect. I suppose I could also use the mylar flipper button protectors?

Looking forward to getting it set up an killing some bugs!

I am guessing they are custom. I reached out to the original poster of the photo but no response yet.

Can someone please confrim if your 3rd/mini flipper has a wired EoS switch or not.

Mine has switch but no wires and I was surprised at this.

thanks for confirmation. VERY strange they did not wire the mini-flipper with an active EoS. I guess they thought it would not be used very much and not for trapping?

not sure, but the 2 main flippers on SST have wired EoS on them. That alone made me think it is odd the mini does not.

I am now not sure how Sega deals with pulse power verse hold power??? Anyone know. I assumed it was like other Sterns where the EoS tells the MPU to drop/modulate the power to hold?

now I am confused.

They are only 2 lug coils

thanks for the info and good to know!

It is not aweful, but also not a piece of cake. Standard sega level of pita.

We are 99% done with a full refurb on ours and just waiting on last shipment of parts right now.

if you do get those, please scan the flipper ones and email to me! I will make up extra sets to give away to others.

I am almost done with the rebuild on my game and would like to put the flipper decals on my new bats, but dont need any of the other decals so not spending $30 to do it

Anyone know what are the differences in ROM 2.0 and 2.1?

Wondering if there is a change log anywhere so I can decide if it is worth updating.

My SST is now out on route to share with the locals. Will be interesting to see if it is liked or not.

Tends to have very long ball times so I have contemplated pulling the left post between inlane/outlane completely. Will give it some time and check drain audits to see how things are.

I will keep you posted wolf.

After all the work of cleaning this game up (one of the dirtiest I have had at start and biggest PITA to shop/refurb) I finally got a chance to really dig into the game with playing it. Actually a very fun deck and I need to go back and rerate it.

I also wish someone would do the work to bring colorDMD to this title. One of the most deserving and lots of great animations that woudl look so good in color!

agreed.

Mine will only be going on route for a short time to fill a space while we wait for something new to arrive. I figure it is a nice treat and a game rarely seen on route so hopefully the locals enjoy it. I am very excited to get it back home in the personal collection.

I thought someone had already successfully made the needed modifications to fit the showcase head? and it ended up not being too terribly tough?

apparently the new colorDMD tools are really slick. PLEASE reach out to colorDMD and inquire. They pay for your time to do a title (contract and everything for the work) and would be a sweet game to see done.

As I know it the basic concept is pretty straight forward where you go through and 'record' all possible DMD frames by progressing all aspects of the game. You then adjust/select your basic pallet of colors that are good for the game, and finally start telling the software what colors to us eon what frames/dots. Apparently goes pretty quick compared to the original software they had developed and can be lots of fun.

I tried for a different title at one time and was not quick enough to meet their timelines (that was early on when they started picking up steam). On a title like this I am guessing they would be a bit more casual on development.

I would buy if someone got it done

Awesome and keep us posted (even if via PM; I can keep a secret)

I cant remember if I expressed interest before, but PLEASE count me in!

If they are reasonable, count me in

good to hear! Are ball times excessively long?

Mine has been on route for almost 2 weeks now and the players have provided feedback that they really enjoy it as something different.

Tonight is the first monthly tourney which will use it so I am sure I will get more input tonight.

no issues so far but I do a full topside and bottomside tear down and refurb before each games goes out on route.
The warrior bug needed a full rebuild before it went out and I found I did need to loose the screws on the right side of the mech (where it attaches to pf) to remove some torque and allow it to move more freely.

I am sure there will be a few issues that arise as new games on route always need a month or so to work out the bugs.

it is a TON of work, but can be fun/challenging also.

I would ONLY do it if the location is close to your daily travels/ home, can have a minimum of 4 machines, and you want to host a monthly tournament to have the fun part of meeting and playing with more local pinheads.

If you get serious and find a location, feel free to PM me and I am happy to give more details on how to do things by the books.

had some issues last night with the switch needing adjustments in the right VUK. (I really dislike how Sega did VUK switches).

I may put in a brand new Cherry switch at some point. Any amount of slop is no good and the design is just poor with a very fine tolerance on this Sega design.

aside from that it is playing well

looks GREAT!

love the cannon lights! Can you please provide more photos of your work to make these (how to)?

very cool! thanks!

HELL of a deal on this title!

I bought some spare SST toys off amazon yesterday to play around with modding them! Kind of pumped!

I found 1 for $23 on amazon. Gonna play with that and if I trash it then no big deal

they seem to like it. I do not put it in tournament settings for the monthlies as they are small and casual type play. The randomness of the recon is a bummer but we just play it as it lies in this case.

are they for sale?

I asked a while back and never heard.

great!

Hopefully I am still on the front of the list

so I am in, sweet
!

Looks great!!!

I really like the titan translucents on SST

for all rings.

They are especially nice on a game like SST where the translucent picks up and diffuses light. Goes well with the theme and art.

for flipper rubbers I use the Perfect Play from pinball life.

I just get the bulk kits and then add on for and oddball sizes. I figure I will use them on other games

still such a GREAT game and severly under appreciated!

When you replaced the whole mech you cranked down the screws/bolts holding it to the pf. Try just BARELY loosening it to remove the torque on the mech. That should fix it IME.

congrats and 2k is a great deal.

I have a nice SST I will be listing shortly.

$2500 cash

Listing coming when I get a chance to snap some pics and blast it out.
