Is it possible to buy just the orb plastic? Or do I need to purchase the entire set?

Quoted from ExSquid:
I messed my side blades up pretty good lifting my playfield. What a noobie move.....smh

I did that with my JP blades and ended up buying the plastic blade protectors from Pinball Life. They were like $30 which seemed like a lot for plastic sheets, but they make all the difference in the world with pulling the play field in and out with no concern of scratching the blades.

I have been a Guardians of the Galaxy (Pro) owner for a few years.

Occasionally the 1st time Quill is played. It is only kicking out one ball and the mode ends as soon as the ball save is done.

Has anyone else had this issue and is their a fix?

I have searched the forum and didn't see a solution.

Man this game is frustrating me. Its a lot like when I got my TMNT. That game really got to me, made me angry. Maybe Im not a borg guy! I dunno....Need to give it some time off and get back to it. Iron Maiden coming this week so itll give me some time off!

Give it time. I felt the same way with this game at first as well as TMNT. This has been the game in our collection the longest. The outlanes aren't nearly as brutal as TMNT in my opinion at least over time.

I have had this but its only if I have Hadrons lit and if I start hitting them as soon as mode starts. Otherwise hasn't happened for me after 2+ years

Thanks, nagamitsu. I should have taken a photo myself to show what I have going on. I'll do that tonight. I just don't see anything to mount that spotlight on. There was also a ball trapped in that area when I bought it, so there must be something missing.

Took a couple pics and hope this helps

Gauging interest in making wireforms to replace the plastic ramps on this game. I asked on one of my build topics and this game was suggested. I can do standard rails or something creative. I am looking at one of these tomorrow. Please chime in. If theres enough interest I will make them.
Thanks for any input.

Local buys just rule! Never played this game or saw the movies. I streamed the movies last night and I liked them both. I played the game this morning and wow. Just fun. I Took off ramps and I am making a base shape set. Then a production board to follow. I still have 48 wireform sets to make for mandalorian customers and I am doing them in groups of 5. Just to break things up so I dont go mad I do other machine orders on the side just so I dont go crazy. Usually just one day. So far Nothing artistic jumped out at me yet. So, just making replacements for the plastic ramps. Thanks for the interest! Stay tuned I will post pictures here as it goes. When I get them to a production level I will make it its own topic. Appreciate the nudge to look at this game. We started a business to make wireforms. If theres any other games that strike any interest feel free to post ideas.

Can’t wait to see what it looks like. Cleaner look I’m sure!

I finally got around to putting in a few figures: I tried the Milano above Groot, front and center. Will add some lights to it, but also might move it to above the skill shot. Added Nebula, Gamora and Star Lord. I have Drax and Yondu, but I feel light it’s just going to be crowded if I add more. I need some pin stadium’s next I think. Love this game!

I dont want to plug up this owners topic. I will make a build topic on forum just for theses rails. Feel free to jump over and see them through.

I do not know how to paste the new topic here. But Loganpinball forum search should find it. Or, if someone can post it here that would be great.

What should I do with my broken topper.
A) Leave as is (yuck!)
B) Attempt a glue repair
C) Remove the clear silhouette part and mod something in its place
D) Remove and sell it as is.

Ideas or suggestions?

Is there a way to change the direction the magna force magnet releases the ball? I feel like there are too many released straight down the middle.

That's a good idea. According to my "Pinball Leveller" app, I was perfect side to side. I'll look at it again, maybe closer to the magnet.

Squeeze the auto launcher forks together a little. Over time the forks spread out and they are strikiing the ball on the outside. The forks need to hit more towards the center. The shooter rod tip needs to go freely between the forks, so dont over squeeze them.

One more thing to check is the coil stop. For years Stern has sadly had a stock pile of inferior cr*p. A worn/broken coils stop would make the solenoid weak.
