Just about finished with this WH2O I've been working on off and on now for about 8-9 months. I have a couple small things left to do before it's 100% finished but it's about 95% there right now (please ignore the mismatched left flipper, I'm waiting on another orange metallic one to come in). I started with a route beater and here is what was donet:
- New Doug Huse cabinet with v2 Next Gen decals and Stern metal cabinet protectors
- New Mirco playfield set with full set of Cliffy's installed (shooter lane, VUK drop and Disaster ramp). Also installed the Mantis lock target protectors
- New plastic set including new clear plastics from Pinbits
- New ramp set; New boulder set and Pinbits boulder protectors
- New translite. The original is in very good condition as well but had a dime size imperfection on it
- New coindoor assembly; custom Boulder shooter rod
- Upgrade all the usual cabinet/backbox plastic trim pieces with metal variants. Had all hardware powdercoated by Matt at Back Alley
- All new bigfoot assembly (motor, shaft, diverter). Installed Bumble figure and installed the Big Foot spot light mod
- Installed all new clear stand up targets, backlit with color coordinated LEDs. The LEDs light up when you hit the target.
- Had all the mountains and boulders custom painted and clear coated to be snow capped. The paint sparkles in the light as well and looks really nice
- Custom apron with light up windows. I'm still finishing up the lighting part. I haven't decided 100% what flasher to tie in to.
- All LEDs (GI and flashers). Unfortunately the camera isn't picking up the lighting as well as I'd like but I used different shades of blue LEDs throughout the playfield, especially on the mini playfield, that I think give it a really nice look.
- Flipper Fidelity speakers and sub
- Other random stuff: all wire harnesses removed and scrubbed clean. Majority of the switches/targets replaced with new ones. New lost mine popper, custom lighting throughout to highlight the mountains, other stuff I'm probably forgetting at the moment.
Here is a link to more (higher res) pictures. I will have many more in the next day or so (including under playfield, backbox, inside cab views, etc).

Note: It does have the original topper in nice condition, I just haven't installed it yet. The only negative is one of the lamps on the right chaser board isn't working for some reason. It could be as simple as a blown transistor but I'm not 100% sure.
Like I said, I'm just about done with this and just have a couple things to finish up including some cool custom apron cards I'm making but wanted to post now to gauge interest.
Looking to get $8,250 OBO. Would also consider a trade for NIB/HUO Tron + cash or Avatar LE + cash. Located in MA and I can prep for shipping (via NAVL) if necessary.
