Hi all, I'm new to the forums and have been lurking for the last week or so but DW is my first (so far only) pinball and I do love it. I've been a fan since I was wee lad and Tom Baker has always been my fav. I've read through the tread and I had no idea there were so many mods for the old girl and I may have to start saving my pennies. I don't have any experience with fixing modding a pin but I'm willing to give most things a shot. Going to have to replace a weak flipper on it so nothing better than trial by fire right? I do love the different back graphics and would replace mine but I've had two of the doctors sign mine and going to go for another signature this summer.

Quoted from EvanDickson:

For the weak flipper, you may not have to replace anything. I've had weak flippers resolved by just bending the switch leaf ever so gently to adjust the stroke slightly.

Enjoy the new pin!

Thank you and I'll try that before replacing. I've got a rebuild kit on the way and I'm sure it won't hurt to have the extra parts around. I'm finishing the basement this winter and then I'll be shopping for a new pin to throw down there with the DW. From what I've read I think I'll avoid going with a NIB and go for something a little older.

So after starting to take apart the flipper I noticed that the middle wire on the flipper coil stop broke off. Off to radio shack tomorrow to get my first soldering iron and start a crash youtube lesson on soldering. At least I have the spare parts if the flipper really breaks on me now.

For those who do not have a machine yet there is kickstarter to bring it to consoles.

Man that is gorgeous! I've got the same issue with my inserts and I wonder if CPR will ever tackle this one.

Anyone know where I can get a replacement Tardis? Someone really jacked this one up at some point and I'm not sure it's worth trying to fill and match paint.

Quoted from pinballinreno:

2 ways to repair this.
1) see if someone who has upgraded to the USB tardis will sell you their original one.
2) build the desirable USB tardis mod. It looks fantastic!

Thank you! This game is currently on the chopping block for me so I'll have to figure out if I have enough time to mod one of those hubs just to sell it. If anybody does have an original sitting around, please PM me.
