Quoted from koops:My god! Where the hell are you finding these?
Got a Dino lower jaw plastic? That seems like the one everyone has busted or chipped.
Yep, I have a few of those somewhere around here.

Quoted from modfather:Here is a cool little mod we do. The Jurassic Park Jeep model has two custom metal brackets for a secure installation. It has leds built in behind the headlights. Attaches to a nearby flasher and is interactive with the game. Check this out and other cool mods for all kinds of different games at http://www.modfatherpinball.com
Only $42? Hot damn, wish I had money to waste on a hotwheels toy.

Quoted from IceMaster:My game came with this so I just assumed all JPs had it but I was looking at other playfields today and I don’t see them. Any idea what this is from?
Yuck, take it out and toss it in the trash.

Quoted from newmanoconnor:Gents,
I have a NOS Ramp still wrapped in cling, and I was considering using it to create a vacuform mold, and having them made to resell. The issue I see, is even with my contacts in china being able to find a factory to reproduce it, the minimim order quantity to get great pricing will be very high. Thats not even mentioning the tooling.
That likely means having them made in small batches, which likely means a very high price point.
How much would you be willing to pay for a new ramp? What if it didn't have the flap attached?
its likely to land between $300 and $600....depending on MOQ and material choice, and flap/noflap. I think this is the reason starship fantasy hasn't had one made.
Freeplay40 can do it much cheaper once he finishes his bigger machine.
Quoted from Chitownpinball:Does he? Pretty sure he said he was tapped out.
Any ways, 20% at this place today. They have a JP plastic set.

They tend to hide damage/condition, so be careful with what you order.

Sorta. I'm on the hunt for a nice one, but they never pop up.

Quoted from SantaEatsCheese:What would you guys value this "Players Condition" Jurassic Park at assuming everything (including the TREX) worked https://imgur.com/a/iprIrEA If I traded for something in this condition would I have a hard time selling it?
See if that backbox is solid or totally rotted

Quoted from JurassicJarvis:Should i periodically change these capacitors evan if there is nothing wrong with my machine? Thanks.
Once every 20 years should do.

Quoted from Daditude:There are so many mods. That is why i am trying to figure out what's worth it and what's not. I dont really want to double the cost of the machine with mods, but i would like it to be as nice as possible.
Below is a list of mods I have been suggested (both on here and a couple from JP owners i know):
Art blades
ChadH code
Rubbers, posts, flipper upgrades
Pinsound board
Color dmd
Opening gate
T-rex update
Loop combo scoop
Jeep
Dino skulls
Goat
Updated dinos and palm trees
East dock sign
Raptor in cage
If there are any other recommendations, please share. I have never even heard of some of these.
To a lot of buyers, mods add zero value to the price. Plus those fake.toy palm trees look awful.

Quoted from SantaEatsCheese:I'm looking at my first "Project Pin"... a Jurassic Park. I have not pulled the trigger yet, but have seen some pictures and under all the filth the machine seems to be in good shape cosmetically. It blows fuses when the switches are plugged in (I could probably figure that out), is filthy, but looks like it would clean up nice. The only thing that is scaring me is the guy says that at start up (with the switches unplugged so it can be tested) the TREX only moves left and right... not up and down. I fully understand that the TREX is "unobtanium" right now. For those of you with a physical machine, does the same motor run the left to right and up and down action on that machine or is it a separate motor? I'm trying to figure out if it is potentially a gearbox issue, bent TREX issue, or motor issue. Sorry, no pictures at this time. Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated...
The motor is available, no problem there

Quoted from dnaman:Hey All,
Has anyone else ever dreamt of a new playfield for JP?
I have for years and have even purchased a used playfield in hopes of having it scanned (for reference), then sanded down (scanned again for reference) and then reworking the full art package. Thought of using photoshop with 4K images pulled from the DVD and mixing these with some effects etc... The thought of approaching someone to rework the art digitally is even more appealing. Having this type of talent on it would be awesome!!

If anyone is interested and wants to discuss a way forward that would be great.
Cpr has this game in their to do list
