Anyone have any info or guesses on the current status of the ES repro playfields over at CPR?
The last update from August mentioned several promising notes about the new shipment of wood for their new lineup as well as getting inserts in. ES was mentioned in both of those instances.
If you had to guess, do you think we are 6 months out? A year? Sooner?

I'm getting anxious even though I know there is probably still a lot of time left, yet....BUT, anyone on the CPR Earthshaker Playfield list receive any correspondence from them yet? I was trying to figure out how much time is still left on these bad boys based on their current status on CPR's website of "ready for silkscreening". I was trying to look back in time on different forum topics for TAF to gauge how much time is between this stage and clearcoating, then shipping. Unfortunately I couldn't get a good gauge of the time that passed. I'm thinking we are still a few months away, but hoping it is closer than I think.

Just thought I would see if anyone had any insight on this. Very excited for these to start shipping!

Brought this home a few weeks ago and have spent that time completely tearing it down, polishing, all new plastics and all new ramps. Brand new pop bumpers, all LED. Finally finished today, just have to put the apron on! And remove the inclinometer from the playfield

Does anyone know what the part/reference # for the wire ball guide is that sits directly under the ball drop on the right side lane nearest the sling plastic? My game is missing this part, but if you look closely in the picture I posted above you can see the two holes directly under the wire form where it used to be. I have researched and found a lot of other playfields that are missing this as well, but some that still have it. I can't tell if it is some kind of support for the wire form or something else... I also cannot seem to find it through the conventional sites, and I wasn't able to identify it in the Williams blue parts catalog. Anyone have an idea? Thx!

I thought so too at first, but the blue book identifies that earthshaker has 2 of that part and, given the size they show, leads me to believe it is pointing at the longer ball guides. I appreciate you looking into it nonetheless...the mystery continues!

Great information, thank you! I felt the same way, it isn't really affecting ball play nor have I ever had it drop into the other lanes.

Thanks for the pictures, this at least helps me to get a better estimate of the size. Maybe I'll just keep it off and not worry about it.

Appreciate all the great info everyone, thanks again.
