I joined the club yesterday. Found a great deal through the Facebook marketplace listings. I've only played a handful of games on one of these in the past, so I'm looking forward to learning all about it.

As a new Doctor Who owner, I’m curious to watch episodes of the show somewhere, so I can understand the characters and call outs in the game. I vaguely recall the PBS version of the early 80’s when I was a kid, but never watched it. Is that the one the pinball is themed after? Any idea where I could watch old episodes that correlate to the theme of the game? The backglass shows seven guys -are they Doctor Who? Are they different actors or do they represent different points in time? I understand there is a new version of the show out there, but I’d like to watch and understand the show 1992 or earlier, so it’s in line with the time frame of the pinball.

Thanks in advance for the help. I'm loving the game so far this first week of owning it. I have new rubber and LED bulbs on order and hope I can begin the shop job this weekend. I'll post pictures once complete.

Thank you. I think it looks nice too. I used blue under the right ramp, but ran out. So I used the Comet 'Purple Passion" bulbs on the left side. They make the colors pop, like a black light will.

I noticed last night that some of the little 'mushroom' buttons on the Time Expander aren't registering shots. I've only owned this game a shirt time and am still learning about it as I play. Should 1 hit always register something? And if there is problem, will I need to pull that entire center playfield assembly out to get at what I'll need to?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Thanks for the opto advice! I'm truly in love with this game. So happy I lucked out and found one.
