Turbos in the house ... i'm a flintstones nut i love this game i have added the dino led strip looks awesome. i put leds in the buildings, leds in the inserts,also put a small strip in the left corner on top of the machine its dark over there , put on some orange flippers Flintstone_Car.jpg Flintstone_Topper_1.png
I found the artwork, hired and directed a graphic artist to make this translite for me. There has been some confusion in the pinball world afterward as he decided to market them on his own. I do not sell them so please do not ask.
That said, see if you can find Betty and Wilma.

heres one in the dark
Quoted from SpOoKyRiDeS:The "dino" led strip is from Europe. Guy did a fantastic job with it. Don't have his info handy but will post his website here tomorrow for the others. I've got the "G" rating alt translite and will post that soon as well. But... the " Dino" LEDs rock! Much respect for that twist!~SoOoKy
very cool guy
Quoted from blondetall:Just ordered a dino mod and 2 TAF mods for mom's machines for Mother's Day. Woo hoo!
Email him and get the small mod strip added to the dino mod for the left corner on top of the machine you will happy that you did
Quoted from wolfy:I have had my FS for about 5 months and it is a hit at my house. A very fun fast pin. I added a spot light with a led super bright white bulb at the Fred's Choice "A" plastic pointing toward the Bowl-a-Rama sign that brightens up the upper left of the game. It is a must because this area is so dark. I put LED Supers in all inserts and GI'S to also help brighten the whole game. The back box is filled with cool white frosted LED's.The cartoon translite(clean version) is a must as well as the cartoon decal on the playfield in front of the flippers. They can both be bought on e-bay. If there is not one for sale now go to sold items and send the guy a message if you want to buy them. $89-translite and $18 playfield decal. Also painted the legs gold to match the gold on the cabinet. I used Rust-oleum Hammered gold color and it looks great and matches what the original legs looked like. This machine is truly underrated but won't be for long.
I cant seem to be able to find the flintstones FP decal what does it look like
Quoted from Ranhorton:Nice.
I can totally do that with confidence!
unplug the game before you solder anything but easy to do and looks great
Quoted from 0geist0:LOL, I'm a little disappointed with one side of the cab, it has a bunch of holes in it like a sign was screwed to it, but all in all it's nice. Started up with no errors, couple of cracked plastics, and rusty balls but no big deal. I ordered the ball launch button, granite plastic and bowling pin targets and decals. YABBA DABBA DOO!!!!!
I haven't heard a peep from you tonight you must playin ?
I like this translite better then the XXX ones

Quoted from Pimp77:My Flintstones has a broken "Fred's choice A" plastic. Anyone know where I can find one?
Mad Amusement had some about a week ago because i order a set
Quoted from 0geist0:Hey Spooky, those sound cool, if you make some I'll take two sets. One for me and a set for my buddy Turbo. I'll be more than happy to send some $ your way.
Bob
Wow its great when you have a buddy looking out for ya thanks guys
Quoted from alchy999:I have 2 of the metal tabs missing that have the bowls on them in Bowl-o-Rama anyone know how to home build them or where I can get a set?
Start Here good luck
Quoted from Ranhorton:When someone has a minute, can you check your Flintstones and tell me where the underside apron lights are mounted. Are they both right next to each other directly under the Flintstones logo?
And are they both 906 flashers?
Thanks all!
1 light is 906 Flasher 12 volt the other is GI 6.5 volt . what i did was i added 2 more lights to the GI an put them around under the apron to brighten it up some. remember alway turn off the game when adding lights
Quoted from 0geist0:that ramp area is very dark
not any more
Quoted from 0geist0:Where did you get the cartoon translite?
X 2
Quoted from 0geist0:I have a problem with my right flipper sticking on mine, haven't figured it out yet, I've changed the plunger and link, coil sleeve, coil stop, that usually corrects this. Any ideas?
hows the spring and do you play in the flipper
Quoted from 0geist0:the one thing I haven't changed is the bushing I have new ones here
Get Busy 
Quoted from blondetall:Very cool, thanks Spooky. I will check with my mom tomorrow, but she just put her original decals on so she may not want to change so soon. Wouldnt hurt to have a back-up though.
Does anyone know the proper spot to put the extra light strip that I got with the dino ramp light? My dad got the dino light in, but he isnt sure where the other one to light up the concrete area should be stuck. I am going tomorrow to help her finish up Flintstones and TAF decals, so any advice is appreciated.
i put mine strip under the plastic that holds the glass over top of the machine its dark over there
Quoted from 0geist0:I cut the slot in the plastic dino bigger and that fixed the stuck ball problem about 99% of the time
I did the same thing i cut alittle off of the back of dino now my ball dont get stuck any more 
Quoted from SpOoKyRiDeS:Hey y'all, .... might have another run of laminated Fred/Barney drop target decals coming in a few weeks. Fingers crossed. ~Spooky
I would like to order a set if you can spare. they look great
Quoted from SpOoKyRiDeS:The alttrans light and PF overlay are in fact, shut down for good. Don't ask. Also, my drop target decals aren't for sale, ever. But If I get another batch done soon, I will send them out for FREE! Thanks!~Spooky
Wow thats to bad
Quoted from 0geist0:something like this?
that looks like last weeks pizza
Quoted from BarrySanders:I have a 1994 Flintstones but it looks a bit different than the ones posted by you folks. Can I still be in "the club"?
sure why not welcome Barry
So I am new to the club! I picked up my Flintstones yesterday and I am going all in on this one. I placed a parts order for a handful of things through Mad, Marco and PBL (each had something I needed of course) and I contacted Spooky for the translite/decal info and Turbo for the apron mod. I also bought the happy meal buildings off of eBay. $11 shipped for the complete, unopened set of 5! Super excited about that. There is something to be said about a grown man getting excited that he has happy meal toys in the mail...
it looks something like this
Quoted from 0geist0:I'll tell you right now that the Pins are one PITA. If ever I was going to do it again, I would grind the rivets off that top plate change the pins and replace the rivets with aircraft bolts and teflon nuts
That's what pinbum just did with his
Quoted from thewolks:I think you need to sell me your White Water!!
Maybe If I had a white water this is not mine
Quoted from SteveTheGeek:Hi everyone !
Just got my Flintstones machine, so I'm now part of the club !
My machine came with 3 balls instead of 4, it works, but I have a message when going in the menu. Can you tell me what is missing from the gameplay because of the missing ball ?
Thanks!
Steve
Welcome Steve add a 4th ball and have Yabba dabba doo time
Flintstone Yabba Dabba Doo.jpgQuoted from dantebean:Yep, just got pricing for the alternate translite. I will hopefully be ordering it in the next couple days. I really need to clean up the drop targets and get new legs.
Which one you going with ?
