WOW! that looks SOOOOO Frickin SWEET! NICE!

It looks like a different machine. Really. I've always hated LED's for GI, but damn! It's cool! It's mesmerizing looking at the pics, I would think much better in person. I looked for awhile just to make sure it was TOM.

Must...look...away.

The only thing I would change is maybe the sling shot plastics LED colour, maybe to more frosted white bulbs and just one purple or red to make the rabbits pop more.
The right one looks less purple than the left, but maybe its just the pic.

But still simply AWESOME! I know pics don't do led's justice, in person it must be amazing.

Wow! Im really mixed up looking at it aye....i mean the colors just pop and it really does look fantastic but at the same time almost feel its lost a certain "magic" with its classic overall look??? Sorry for not making sense as i equally love the bold look as much as i dislike the loss of the original look of the machine!!!

As always, great job coasterguy! A little gold would do nicely to break up the pattern. Maybe a gold spot highlighting the saw...
More pics are always welcome!

You gotta stop posting pics of your TOM, I'm learning to hate you. (begrudgingly: looks great coasterguy...)

(coasterguy) wears his sunglasses at night... So he can, so he can, mod the ___! out of his machines.

It is late and I am still fiddling. I cannot stop!

Just remember that you can play it too.

Looks great! Couple of questions - does it hurt the eyes in any way when playing in the dark? How do you get all lights on to take photo? I want to take photo of my AFM with a mix of LED's and bulbs to try and decide if any more tinkering needed

That really glows! Nice looking game.

Awesome John. You really no how to had color!

looks very nice.

How do you get all lights on to take photo?

You need to go into test mode and select "All Lamps". This will start them flashing. Then it's just a matter of snapping the photo while they are on.

Really sweet looking!! One day soon I am going to own one!!

Nice job coasterguy!

HOLY PURPLE Batman!!!

Pretty, but how can you even see the ball?

coasterguy,

The game looks fantastic! Once again, you have elevated LED selection to an art form. You should lead a seminar on the subject at the next Expo. Share some of that wisdom.

Ok, bear with me. First time I have ever attempted to post photo so not sure if it will work. This is my AFM with green LED's in the modes and some white LED's and normal bulbs. Perhaps I should be more adventurous? Never even knew you could get purple LED's!

AFM looks good simon!Turn the flash off on your camera and tun the lights out for the Leds to really show.

Where do you buy purple LED's from? I think I am going to have to get some and try in various spots

Thanks. Definitely going to have to get some! And then I will try and work out how to switch flash off and take pictures. TOM has gone back onto my top 5 hope to get list.........

I am happy though. My Mods I got, Not so much. I already took them out ...

Which mods did you buy, and what didn't you like about them? I'm not super familiar with the mods available for ToM, but I've always thought the spinning saw mod was cool.

That looks surreal! Well done

A highly recommend the mirrior lights mod,they surround the edges of the mirror near the roll overs and truly look amazing...looks like they should have always been there.

Theatre Magic is in my top 3 want list,thanks for the pics and inspiration!

That is spectacular, thanks for posting.

White rabbits for sure, but it looks awesome.

Coasterguy, what kind of LEDs do you have on the first and last letters of T-H-E-A-T-R-E? I have LEDs in my TOM but I find it a bit harsh (especially after hitting the trunk for the skill shot). My LEDs on the 'T' and 'E' are not as bright as yours (they are side mounted, so it's almost like a 90 degree angle bulb is needed...). Also the 'G' in M-A-G-I-C suffers from this too (in your pic and in mine).

Pinbob- Cointaker has some great flexable led's that you can bend and point in any direction...I find them great for situations that you just described.

I think they only come in white but I could be wrong about that.

Noflix makes a really cool LED that is actually two flexible LED's built into one:

It seems like these would really come in handy for large inserts. Too bad it costs so much to have them shipped here.

wesperron and coasterguy, thanks! Those cointaker LEDs look perfect, I'll be ordering some right now!

gweempose, those double LEDs are cool, but a bit extreme with the shipping as you pointed out.

Very Impressive!

The purple lighting theme looks nice. Is there a strobing effect with the Superbrites? Every pin I've played with similar full-led replacements makes me want to tear my eyeballs out in agony.

I don't see a strobing effect myself.

I never have either. I think it's a physiological thing.

Looks great!! Well done.

nice work coasterguy! great machine. i cant get enough of the leds these days. im working on my fishtales i will post pics when im done.

A rep from Marco Specialties presented at California Extreme last year and talked about LEDs and the strobing effects. It was a very technical presentation and he covered a lot of great information. I was interested in the strobing effects since I notice it, mostly when tracking the ball. The takeaway was that newer LEDs solved this problem but I have yet to solve it. I've tried cheap and pricey LEDs from the usual places but no luck. Also, no vendor is selling LEDs (that I know of) that are listed as non-strobing.

It's a love-hate thing for me -- I want the brightness and lower thermal temp of LEDs but dislike the harshness and strobing of them. I really hope tournament machines are not shifting to LEDs as that would give anyone not affected by strobing a distinct advantage!
