Spider-Man
Stern, 2007976 miles over two days and I now have Spiderman in my gameroom. Right or wrong, I went for the cheaper routed one over the HUO one. They were each 850+ miles in opposite directions.
I'm going to need to clean it and rebuild the flippers. Then it should be good to go!
I'm open to suggestions on how I should arrange the room.
dang man, thats alot of driving. But you got a keeper, congrats- SM is a great game.
I see you're willing to drive long distances, I think you need to re arrange your game room by moving it a few hundred miles north to my dining room. It will enjoy the company of one other pin, and it will surely get the exercise of gameplay that it needs.
I can look into getting red curtains so the spider man doesn't feel out of place.

To simplify I would send the TAF to me. 
I have had my SM for a couple of weeks and i LOVE IT LOVE LOVE IT.
Congrats to you!
Quoted from vid1900:I'd paint the room black, like an arcade
Oh, I had it painted Infantry Blue when I bought the house. It reminds me of when I was younger. I still need to hang some stuff on the walls. And there is an arcade auction in town next weekend. I hope to get some gaming stools, a clock or something.
Blackout curtains on the window, protect your machines from cabinet fade!
Good call on the routed one, IMO. Let the collectors pay extra for HUO.

Stools? Clocks? Priorities man, you should pick up a couple more pins - you have room for 2 more if you put them all against that wall in a row.

Bingo!
I would do the same...
+1 for ditching that thin curtain as well.
They have relatively cheap thermal curtains that block heat AND light at Target for around $12...
I put them in my gameroom and darkened the walls as well.
Nice and cozy! 
Congrats on the SM!

Good point on the thermal curtains. There are wooden shades behind the curtain and the curtain is about as thick as a flannel shirt. It's not razor thin like some curtains.
I can get some thermal ones to put behind it after work tomorrow.

perfect Pinside answer right there! Congrats on the great addition Stack enjoy!!!
Nice pin, I want a SM one day.
I would straighten the pins out to get more in as well.
Quoted from Stack15:The 555's fit in that spot but don't work. Well I guess this gives me a conversation topic next time I have my pinball friends over.
They take a special bulb. I can't remember where I read it? Manual? Forum?

These are the skinny style of bumpers and have a flat bumper cap featuring a web motif. There's no lamp inside but instead we get an white LED on top. But these aren't regular white LEDs either, having a flat top to help diffuse the light better. Sadly, they didn't do much and didn't light much beyond a faint glow. On the plus side, though, the top left pop bumper LED is in no danger of melting the plastic ramp just above it.
