Quoted from ChadNC:

Decals will be coming soon. If not authentic pretty soon, Black Market will be available!!

That's great news! Who will be creating these, and how can I get a set of new decals?
My machine is in amazing shape except for the faded cabinet art.

Quoted from Pacer:

Getting rid of the fade!

It must feel good to remove that faded decal. Does this mean you were able to find a new one?

Nicely done! I can't wait to attempt the same once I get my hands on some decals.

Quoted from stevevt:

Per the "Bay Area Amusements has individual plastics in stock ..." thread just posted by gweempose...
http://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/bay-area-amusements-has-individual-plastics-in-stock
Note that the always broken turbo plastic is available, for now:
http://bayareaamusements.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Store_Code=BAA&Screen=PROD&Product_Code=GS-I531-2503-12A
Along with several others for I500 and, of course, other games.

It is kinda sad how excited I am about this. I thought I would never find this for sale on it's own.

Whoa, those side decals look perfect. Are they new?

#191 10 years ago
Quoted from TurnOne:

I noticed that one of my 3 illuminated targets has only two lights working. Is there a solution besides replacing the whole pcb with the light or is that the easiest?

I had the same problem. I just soldered in 4 new 3mm LEDs and it solved the problem.

You can order them online pretty cheaply.

#193 10 years ago

I replaced my WPC CPU board with a P-ROC pinball controller board and got pinMAME running on my laptop to emulate the original roms.

Everything is working except some issues with the turbo and the divertor, but that should be pretty easy to fix.

Up next I am going to write all new rules for the game in Python. The game already has great gameplay, so am not expecting to make anything close to what Dennis Nordman originally designed. Should be a fun challenge regardless!

Anyone know where I can find a serpentine ramp (A-19979) replacement? I looked in the usual spots and it looks like no one is making new ones yet.

Looks amazing David!

How are your cabinet decals not faded?

The targets from GLM are awesome: http://www.greatlakesmodular.com/products/pinball/i500itb.html

They do use a brighter 3mm LED, so you might want to swap all of the ones in your machine out for new ones so the replacement target doesn't look out of place.

#283 10 years ago
Quoted from midcoastsurf:

I think the backstop on my machine was previously bent

I bent it back to how it was in factory condition before selling the machine to you. I had the same problem with bounce outs, but I never tried bending it like Cliff recommended.

#285 10 years ago

Oh! My mistake. nm.

Quoted from cl65:

Is there any backbox decals for sale anywere

Nope. Rick at Planetary Pinball said they are making them, but it has been a year with no update on the status.

I put my burnt-out old opto board from my old Indy500 in this video game trailer (Seen at the :57 mark of the video). There is also a 7-opto board from my NBAFB in the same shot.

Thought you guys might get a kick out of that.

Quoted from accidental:

Great trailer! Looks like a fun game

Thanks man! It is a super fun game. That is my acting debut as the lead FBI Agent and the hands soldering.
