Happy to knock at this club's door.
I have my DW pinball since two month only and i am so in love with it !
Here in France, it is not a popular TV show. It as just came timidly from our British neighbours since the new 2005 serie.
In add to the tacky and ugly translite this pinball is underrated...
I have changed for a alternate backglass that is playing perfectly with the original light-show and also for a custom more compact topper dome... And this machine seems regenerated like a time lord !
Playfield art is great and i hope offer to my DW a Pinsound pcb as soon as possible.
It's a very good machine for family but also a very technical/strategic pin to make big score. Everybody enjoy with it.

I have created this translite

In fact it's a graphic prototype printed on a plexiglass backside sheet, so it's really a backglass.
As it work great (with leds and bulb flashers) i actually do a mini-production of 3 translites (on backlight 280g PVC)...
If result is good, maybe one or two to sell. You could contact me in Private Message.

Nice and beautiful job !

Hi guys,

i know that that some of you are going to make some "mushroom" targets with 3D printers.
If somebody is interested, i've got in extra a set of five new old stock targets. MP

Hi Doctors !

If there are some interested members, PM for more infos.

Do you have amps or leds behind translite ? Leds are sometimes too shiny and maybe produce less deep blacks.

It's unfortunately the only way to produce in few quantity this kind of product. I think it's a minor problem as you can tape whith scotch on edges.

Problem with BSD is that i think actually that its translite is better than its playfield graphics !

I have added left red and right yellow convolux on mine.
It is really nice, effects are very fine and bright with DW playfield.

It looks awesome, but the essentiel problem with lot of alternate translites is that it doesn't respect the original lightshow and make some surrealists effects...
Lightshow works by animated Logo (up), Davros, Time expander (down) and the seven doctors... not only a DW big logo and some stuff around...

In my opinion

... Everyone sees it their own way...

I can't imagine taking out some lights because i love the "light show" concept ; eyes on my playfield or not...

But it's leisure after all and the essential is to enjoy !

Surely a good way, i don't know this material.
Thanks for the information

animated logo and flashing doctors...

so, all for the best in the best of all worlds...
Thank you Doctor
As i said before, everyone sees it their own way. And it's great ! Instead of this we would have the same clone machine...

Most important thing is that the original translite is an horrible piece of (bad) art

Impossible !

And with a Pinsound board and alternate translite, it's impossible X 100 !!!

Pretty cool !
It's a commercial item or a DIY ?

Looking forward to seeing all this on the machine...

My Doc always give back the ball, good boy...

This one is working perfectly with the original light-show > https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/doctor-who-owners-clubtime-lords-welcome?tu=baronrouge#op
