I have taken Doctor Who off my wish list...

and put it into my collection! Been wanting this one for a while and finally picked it up yesterday. Needs to be shopped, a little touch up here and there, and of course the cabinet is faded but for the most part in good shape. The pics are not that great and this is not the final location but I will add some more later. I have the Cliffy's to put on the Time Expander already. It is fun but a drain monster so far. Does anyone know if all three flippers are supposed to be "lightning flippers". I have heard different things about the upper one. Anyway, I was excited to get it so I had to post this.

I am going to retract that statement. Read that somewhere but maybe my source of info is wrong. I'd wait for an owner to chime in. Sorry about the potentially bad info. I hope you didn't swap it out already!

Congrats! Awesome game. Once you get it all cleaned up, you gotta add the moving Dalek topper. One of the best mods out there.

Mine had lightning flips on the bottom and standard on the upper. Pretty sure that's how they came, because judging by the amount of grime that was on mine I don't think the glass ever came off until I got it!

A nice cheap mod is to put two green 906 flashers above the repair targets instead of white. It reflects nicely off the side wall.

Congratulations on the pin. I just got one a few weeks ago myself. It's a tough game but with some great shots and fantastic sound and artwork. I haven't figured out how it all works as it's quite complicated and I have a few issues with the Time Expander to sort out before I can get really stuck in but overall I'm really enjoying it.

This thread and whitepaper make a huge difference when working on a DW.

I probably should have let gonefishing link to it for old times sake.

This one for Davros issues.
