Quoted from Mando:

Nice is the topper back in stock ?

I placed an order with one of my distributors a few weeks ago for one. At the time it was on back order. If you want one, now would be the time to try and secure one as Stern has started shipping them again.

Quoted from Mad_Dog_Coin_Op:

There is a pull down window for Spike games. Not all that obvious.

damn, lists as out of stock when i add it to my cart. thanks for letting me know though, i will keep an eye on that.

That sucks. Didn’t add it to my cart. Little Shop of Games has them in stock for the same price.

#7254 3 years ago

I bought two of the spike shakers from LSOG and they were exactly as advertised. With the node board issues floating around, I wanted to make sure I was going only with Stern branded shakers just in case a problem should arise.

What are your thoughts on the Metallica power bladez in HOH?

#7258 3 years ago
Quoted from Gotfrogs:

Never seen them installed in person, but the videos look damn amazing. I think they generally fit. It's not like the art on those blades matches Metallica either

#7259 3 years ago

Rdoyle1978, that was my thought as well. It kind of matches the art in the back of the machine that has lightning in it.

#7260 3 years ago
Quoted from Gotfrogs:

What are your thoughts on the Metallica power bladez in HOH?

Think there’s just too much blue and green in it for my liking. Needs some more red for me. But it does look cool.

#7261 3 years ago

Munsters would look cool but out of stock unfortunately.

Quoted from Gotfrogs:

I have the power bladez in my Iron Maiden and they work great - minimal difference in thickness, there is very slight hum to the blades as they cycle through the graphics but once you start playing you can not notice the sound

#7263 3 years ago
Quoted from Gotfrogs:

They do look cool but I think I would pass putting them on Elvira. The color palette seems wrong to me.

Just joined the club over the weekend! I had rented the game for about a month last year when Covid 1st hit. Right around the time they added the Frankie deadhead.

One of my favorite moments of the game was when House Party started and the song Shout came on. Back then the song was much louder and there were less other noises/callouts. Did they change it because now it seems other noises/callouts drown the actual song. Anyway to change this back? I see there are 2 different adjustments for music attenuation and speech attenuation. These are both default to 0. If I change these will it make a difference and if so what are yalls set at?

Also my favorite callout back then was from a backdoor skillet when Drac said "not everybody likes the backdoor, but you do!" Did they remove that cause I haven't heard it yet. If so does anyone know why?

Thanks all!

I've heard the drac callout since the latest update, so it's definitely not gone..there's a cycle of callouts for that shot, so you probably just haven't gotten it yet.

#7266 3 years ago

"not everybody likes the backdoor, but you do!" Is still in there. We love that call out as well

I'm -20 on both attenuation settings. Also, an external sub is a must for this game , at the least, pinwoofer is better

Yep setting both to -20 did help with the music getting drowned out. Thanks!

First time I reached to sell the house. I went down stairs to load the new code on Avengers and decided to play Elvira while I was waiting. Well I never got to play Avengers, because after 2 short warm up games. I blew it up. I reached Gappa 3 times, Made directors cut 3 times, made it through the house 3 times! and finally sold the house. Based on the fact that I got wild market value at the end , I imagine its a pretty good price.
Game is coded great. My favorite is the trailer mode after you complete the house!

Spoke to joe from pin graffix said he is hoping to do a Elvira run if people are interested in them?

#7271 3 years ago

I'd be up for an Elvira run from Pingraffix... have their Powerbladez on my MMr which I love!

#7272 3 years ago
Quoted from mighteagle:

I'd certainly get a set.

I am
Very interested in an Elvira set!

#7276 3 years ago

Installed the knocker kit. It works when you get a free game but was hoping that there is a setting for it to knock when you get an extra ball. Anyone know how to change the settings for this?

#7277 3 years ago

Wow! Price went from $1099 this morning, to $1499 now!

#7279 3 years ago

Has anyone every had issues with theirs rebooting randomly? We have one in leagues and apparently the main board took a crap. The got a new one from Stern and it rebooted on us during leagues twice last night.

You have at lot of pins. Are you over taxing your power? That's my first thought. Turn them all on and then check the outlet with a multimeter. Do the same test with all the games turned off.

Wow! Glad I overpaid at $900 when I bought. ( still way overpriced tho)

#7283 3 years ago
Quoted from Syco54645:

Stern knocker kit.

Purchased one of the eBay toppers. After purchase the auction was changed and price increased!!

It's not mine. It's at the bar were we have leagues.

On a side note, I have 6 dedicated 20A circuits in my game room just for the machines so no power issues there.

I got my screen mods and my topper today. The screens installed without issue and look great but my $1100 topper base plate is bent! I could probably bend them back in place without much of an issue but I don’t think I should have to deal with this at the price point being charged.
I love how the instruction show styrofoam covers designed to prevent this kind of damage but none were installed.

#7286 3 years ago

Damn, that sucks. I'd get replacement for sure.

#7287 3 years ago

Well, I emailed my distributor but also got impatient, bent it back in place and installed it. I love the look!

FWIW, my topper came with the indicated packing.

Favorite mod for EHOH so far! Looks fantastic and easy to install.

#7290 3 years ago

I've looked all over but can't find the answer. I installed the latest code, 1.01, for EHOH a couple weeks ago and haven't heard any adult language. Did they edit it all out or is there now a Family/Adult setting to switch? I paged through all the 1 billion settings and didn't see anything.

#7291 3 years ago

Installed tonight. Wow, such a good mod. Wife likes it so much she wants one for the right side too. Thanks Brian!

I was planing on getting just one but I am glad I got both. Looks even better as a pair

There is no Family/Adult setting in the current code.

Quoted from BillyPilgrim:

Are Black Knight toppers really being sold for that much?! I have an extra one in my basement, still unopened, because I accidentally bought two.

Yep! Go make some $$$!

#7297 3 years ago
Quoted from jfh:

Thanks jfh!

I hope they include one soon so I can get back some of those adult quotes that put a smile on my face. Any news of that happening?

There was some months back right after some of the language was removed.

I’d like to see more “adult” language and a setting option. Also want to see the backglass/translite go dark when the topper opens.

#7299 3 years ago

Incredible Mod! Thanks Brian!

Where did you get the eyeballs?

Wonder how they'd look when lit up in sync with apron LED's
