The guantlet has been thrown down. It's on like Donkey Kong. Or something like that. Rules are simple. Post pictures of your pin in a heads up battle and let the Pinsiders decide who shall reign supreme! Poll included!! This is also a great way to give credit to some amazingly talented modders in this hobby. If anyone sees something they like, hit that modder up.

I will surely get a thumb cramp trying to list all my mods but here goes. Pictures will follow. RobT, come at me brah!!

Wow...did you have to take out a second mortgage for this?

#3 9 years ago

Ha! Who needs two kidneys? Thanks bud.

#4 9 years ago

Come out come out wherever you are Rob! Face me like a man!

#5 9 years ago

Is there such thing as a mod hoarder?

It looks very pretty. Wonder if Santa will put a mod underneath the tree for you, if there are any left to add?

I love and hate my IM! You and your family enjoy the holidays!

Ha thanks man. Same to you and yours. I just took off some led flipper buttons and the speaker light kit and have two different acrylics for the speakers. May just keep them or sell them later. Still need an LED backbox kit and to get that board from Prof_Pinball to customize my ramp lights. Love this pin!

#7 9 years ago

Oh and just a little background on why I did this silly thread:

#8 9 years ago

that machine is UN-F@$^-believable!
Wow, nice work. Jealous.

I will have an Iron Man one of these days.....

#9 9 years ago

Nice, but you need a video for an official pin-off..

#10 9 years ago

I have to admit that based on the title of the thread I though there was probably some sort of challenge for RobT that involved the grinder app and ...

#11 9 years ago

I voted RobT but then saw you have a TrilogyBeer pin gulp so consider it changed.

#12 9 years ago

A few crappy videos:

#13 9 years ago

Holy crap Grinder! Seriously, that's just off the chain.

#14 9 years ago
Quoted from TigerLaw:

Hey thanks man. Just a silly thread really. Put a lot of love into this IM and it's a thing of beauty.

#15 9 years ago

Points deducted for no backbox leds and no topper light. lol.

#16 9 years ago

Grinder. You need modding rehab. Lol. Looks nice.

#17 9 years ago

Got this (Iron Man life size bust) to go with a Avengers LE that I was thinking about getting - perhaps I should get the IMVE instead? IronMan Mark VII Bust.jpgIronMan Mark VII Bust.jpg

#18 9 years ago
Quoted from Kevgascan:

Oh, you are right! How could he not put back box LEDs in an IM?

#19 9 years ago

Damn it, someone beat me to it!
Back box kit
,light for the topper
EL Paper instruction cards
I'm close, but you still have me beat!

Measuring contest put it away.

Nice pin.

#21 9 years ago

i dig those magnet protectors. Who (and where) sells those?

#22 9 years ago

Where did you get the el paper instruction cards? Those look great.

#24 9 years ago

Gio from Pinball Refinery.

Quoted from TheFamilyArcade:

A fellow pinsider makes them. Any color or size. His handle is Kawydud. I think his name is John and he is from NY.

Yes, an LED backbox is def next on my list and maybe a lit topper as well. Clearly, I still have work to do. Thanks for the kind words. Can't wait to see Rob's.

#26 9 years ago

Yeah, but does your Iron Man do this?

That is the way the game should have been. Friggen amaze balls. I want one!!!

#33 9 years ago

With a score of 1,166,410 I'm voting less modding and more playing.

#34 9 years ago

Haha that was my daughters score, she's four.

That looks cool! Hot Toys right?

How tall and wide is that anyway? Me may wantie.

#36 9 years ago

I need to see pics of RobT machine no before I vote.

The question is does yours? Find it hard to believe from the score of 32 million after the skill shot.

#38 9 years ago
Quoted from QuarterGrabber:

Sorry, I'm going to have to yield to Grinder on this one as I've never got around to taking pics of my IM (other than a shot of the coin door) or a video, which I've been wanting to do.

#39 9 years ago

Rob T vs Grinder in an IM showdown?
Could be an epic battle!

Testing the score display shrinking the font after double digit scores, silly.

You heard it folks! Cue the music!! Oh and Rob, this thread was only a joke and not meant to be taken very seriously. Just so much drama on here lately. I thought a silly thread like this would be fun.

#44 9 years ago

Good stuff , I tell ya. Being a modder myself, I will accept the challenge as well. ACDC , MET , WOZ, LOTR, ID4, BF, Apollo 13, TFTC, ST ......bring it........pick a game for the challenge

#45 9 years ago

I finally installed my only mod other than the topper on my IM. I need to mod this sucker more. image.jpgimage.jpg

#46 9 years ago

It doesn't have these either...

image-927.jpgimage-927.jpg image-735.jpgimage-735.jpg
#47 9 years ago

This was as one sided as an EMOs fringe.

Great pics of IMs and a fun thread.......makes a nice change.

Haha, Tramp Flip? Wtf? I do have some flipper acrylics being done by Joe over at Laseriffic for my Iron Man and Avengers bats. Hopefully his work slows down so he can get them done for me.

#49 9 years ago

If anyone has the ability to make decals to go top of our flippers, let me know, I'm a buyer.
