For anyone that has a bought a Prem that was built in March or April, did Stern fix any of the issues I've read about (Slimmer rubbing on playfield, any ramp/outline issues, etc.?)
Thank you for the quick responses. Looking to purchase a Prem and this makes me feel better about doing so!
So if the code is done, is this game worth buying as is? Does it feel incomplete? I'm considering getting one and would love to know from someone who's had one for at least 5-6 months....
Just got my GB Prem and wow, so much fun! Its like Iron Man on steroids with a lot more to shoot! So is 5 billion a good score on this thing or no? Just had a fun game!
Quoted from Who-Dey:Yes 5 billion is a great score. You scored that and you just got the game?
Yes. About my 15th game if I had to guess. But like the 14 other ones I never even broke 1 billion, not even close. I have now played it a ton but haven't come close to that score lol
Just had an amazing game, over 7 Billion...and is there anyway to know when the flippers will change back and forth during mass hysteria? That kills me every time!!!
Does anyone have a diagram of the plunger assembly? Mine came completely apart, springs, rod, washer, etc. I want to make sure I put this back together the right way. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Quoted from Allibaster:Probably the same as your Star Trek or Metallica.
Doh. Good point. I do have one extra washer that I can't seem to find where it should go but it appears to be working for now lol
So i want to get a ColorDMD for my GB Prem. Should I go with LED or LCD? Can someone educate me real quick?
Has anyone else ever had your flipper buttons just fly off the machine during a game? This has now happened 3 or 4 times (always the same side) and I have no idea why. And do the stand up targets require multiple shots before falling down or should they always drop at the first contact?
So is there any way to stop the ball from going SDTM between the 2 flippers when it comes off the bumpers? I don't have that much issue with the losing the balls on the left or right side of the slingshots, but man it goes straight down the middle waaaaaaaaaaaay to often. I love the game but its frustrating as heck!
Guys love my GB Prem but slimmer doesn't register any hits now...is there a post or thread that walks through how to fix this or do I need to call Stern? I can hit it straight on, 10 different solid hits and it doesn't register ☹️
I have done a full 180 on this game. At first was very frustrated with it, could never seem to have a good game. Then I tweaked a few things (got carrot flipper bats, reset slimmer, etc.) and I'm now having frequent really good games. Just finished by best to date and had a blast! Went through every mode except "Back Off Man I'm a Scientist" I didn't even realize you can get to "we came we saw we kicked..." twice (I am not sure, but guessing after I finished StayPuff and a 2nd time after I finished Ballroom) Ended up with 10,449,370,000! So glad I never dumped this pin!
People might down vote putting on longer carrot flipper bats (or whatever the correct term is) but I literally went from not ever touching mine in my small collection of 5 pins to now I play it more than my Met Prem, STLE, Kiss LE, and WOZLE. And while I still have some short brutal games (who doesn't on this pin) I am starting to have very good games on a regular basis, which is why I'm playing it more. To each his own I guess, but I think this is a no brainer for this pinball.
ARRRGGGHHHHH!! So I just finished ALL the modes, had We Are Ready To Believe You lit for the first time, made the shot up the ramp, and it goes half way up...and straight down the middle on my last ball. FUDGE!!!!!
I just had the most amazing game! Over 25 Billion!!! Had playfield multiplier going several times and saw some HUGE jackpots!!!
Quoted from gweempose:Wow, that's like LOTR kind of ball times! Very impressive! Do you have the center post mod or anything else that would make the game easier?
No the only change I made was swapping out Stern stock clippers with carrot flippers (which has really helped )
I did the same and now really enjoy playing it. Before I swapped out the flipper bats, it sat untouched for about 5-6 months.
If anyone is near Western NC (28664) I will put you up in a nice cabin on our campground if you can help me get my slimmer working! Just ordered the ColorDMD but I have never had slimer working the way it should
Anyone near Western NC know how to fix a slimmer that MAYBE registers 1 out of 10 hits? This is driving me NUTS! I'd gladly pay you to fix it or put you up in one of our nice cabins on our campground.
Hoping someone can help me out. I really want to fix my PKE/right ramp shot, and saw on a thread that you can remove the 2" hex spacer and replace with a 1 5/8" and it will stop rolling back out. I found the part at marco----> https://www.marcospecialties.com/pinball-parts/254-5008-13 but man I hate to pay the shipping on 1 little item (The shipping is almost 4 times the cost of the part) Anyone by chance have this hex spacer I could buy from you?
Anyone ever get the "Ghost Guard Kit" from Marco, part #502-6990-00
Am going to place the order for the smaller hex spacer but wondering if this is worth adding?
Has anyone ever ordered the Ghost Guard Kit from Marco? Worth the purchase?

Quoted from speederice:Any way to increase the Slimer sensitivity? Just got my game over the weekend, and I think I have the "old" mech because it takes a really solid direct shot for Slimer hits to register.
I am still dealing with this problem. He registers like 1 out of every 10 hits.
Can someone tell me what all you have to remove in order to replace the 2" hex spacer with the 1 5/8 spacer? I don't want to take anything off the playfield I don't have to. Always makes me nervous doing this lol

Quoted from big-c66:So should I get the color DMD first or get my pin stadium lights? This is the serious questions we must ask ourselves from time to time. Talk to me my people I need your input. Lol
Both are great mods but Color DMD without question. Best mod you can get for any game IMO
