Last weekend I picked up the Black Rose that was advertised in the marketplace. Everything on it was sad and tired, so in addition to my normal teardown and shop job that happens when I buy a new game, I also bought a brand new plastic set.

In the set there are three pieces that I don't know what to do with. The one in the top left has no part number on it, so I suspect it's a promotional item, but I'm not sure. The other two pieces are clearly meant to be used on the playfield, but I didn't have either of them in the set that was on the game, and I can't find a spot to match them up with... anybody have a clue?

As in, behind the back panel and under the cannon? I can't feel anything there now, but I'd have to pull the playfield to see how that one would fit.

AHA! You are correct. I was looking at it upside down, and it didn't occur to me that it would be a punch out from that space. Ok... I'll save that in the scrap bin in case I ever need a bit of clear plastic to work with.

Thanks. Anyone else?

I also noticed that the set is missing one piece-- 31-1650A-3, which is a clear piece that attaches to the cap of the furthest right pop bumper to keep the ball from getting stuck as it comes out of the subway. Luckily, aside from being a bit yellowed, the one I have is perfectly serviceable, so I'll just reuse it.

Nearly done getting this one all back together. Just waiting on Cliffy's so I can put the Davy Jones locker assembly back together.

I might have figured out where that little plastic goes.

Attached see a photo cropped from one of the IPDB pictures. The plastic in question fits between those two posts, and is notched in the correct place to accommodate the switch from the ramp. It's not in the IPDB photo, and I can't really figure out what purpose it would serve-- it's clear, so it's not intended for decoration, and I don't see how it would do much of anything else.

Can those of you who own this title check and see if you have this plastic in that location?

AH! Thank you!

I think we can call this one resolved.
