Just ordered a new set of plastics from pinball center don't know if they are nos or repro but hey gotta be better than my broken set.
Man I got way too much loot into this game ..hopefully someone rewrites the code someday.. I seen in a YouTube video for proc, some text that says someone is working on code for it...it's an old video tho maybe it was abandoned.... After watching the movie (again) the other day I realize how bad they blew it writing code for id4. The call out for the alien head should have been the scientist saying "Come on let's get this exoskeleton open" instead of "shoot the alien head" also more video modes besides skill shot, could have opened up some fun, and alowing modes to stack would be cool too.... I wish I knew how to write code maybe it's time to learn
Will these look like originals?
Quoted from AlexSMendes:My brazilian-made repro set may arrive next week.... I'll post some pictures then.
Quoted from ledge:Cliffy was looking into this at some point.. not sure what happened.
the 3 holes were going to be done.
Need!
There are still some reproductions available
Quoted from Bugsy:Anyone have any ideas on keeping the alien head protected? I feel like this gets bashed a lot and it's only a matter of time before it breaks. Spray it with some coats of clear to harden it up a bit?
Quoted from Bugsy:Why clean and wax your playfield to protect the paint on it when you can just let it get dirty and start wearing through to the bare wood? Then after that happens you can just buy a CPR playfield for $700?
I'm looking at preventative maintenance. It's less expensive than buying a new repo.
I see your logic on playfield. 700$ playfield vs 100$ bash toy.. Big difference..haven't bought one for my id4 yet (mine is in really good shape)but probably will soon enough. I'm pretty good at spending too much $ on upgrades for things.... I used to drive a $1,000 car with 10,000$ In upgrades lol.sure was fun car tho
