I just noticed PBR sell these. Anybody used them? Opinions? Kind of tempted if they give 70's Gottlieb pop bumpers more zing.

Will order some and report back at some point in the future.

So, I finally put some of the yellow dot pop coils in a game for an experiment. Chose a Gottlieb 70's game as 60's games seem to have faster pop bumpers for some reason. So, El Dorado has them in.

They really do make a difference - the bumper is way more reactive. Game seems way more lively. Doesn't really make the game easier or harder.

I can think of a few games that might be fun to try these in. As ever it's a matter of experimenting with individual games and seeing if it works. Purists I doubt will like them.

I had yellow dot flipper coils in a game - took them out, went to orange and might go back to regular. Just want each game to be fun and challenging so lots of tinkering needed!

I would class myself as a 95% purist

But occasionally will do a few things if it makes the game more enjoyable. Easily reversible as well.
