Anyone looking to sell in the near future? Go nice between my AC/DC and GnR Thanks.

Add me to the list. Thanks.

Spent a good two months looking for a Kiss Pro. Was about to bite the bullet and ship a routed one from Texas to Toronto, Canada and somehow lucked out and found a Limited 10 minutes from my house. With less than 100 plays. Let me know what mods are a must. Thanks for the help!

Quoted from Silkenone:

Kimball’s Love Gun light mod
Mezel’s Demon mouth light
And you know about Capgun
Congrats!

Thanks for the info. I like to go a little crazy on my games but this is my first Limited. Definitely changing out the rubbers to red and may upgrade the speaker system.

Quoted from Turtlepower169:

Finally got a Kiss Premium after searching for 2 years. Anyone else notice this game hardly ever pops up for sale? Especially the premium.

I sold my LTD and bought a PRO. Rather have the extra cash in my pocket. The only thing I liked about the LTD was the backglass.

Quoted from leaffan67:

great game for sure and I love the LE, but pinballjah, you have to miss the "mist multiball" ball moving across the backboard on the Pro?! Kiss is a very underrated game for sure.

It is a unique feature but I prefer the price point of Pros. Now if I had kept my gold stocks a bit longer, I may have been able to keep some limiteds in my collection

Quoted from Olaa:

This is what I usually do with my games. Sounds really good
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Four speakers in the front?

#1241 3 years ago
Quoted from JustEverett:

capguntrooper makes the Star Child plastic protector. I'm not huge into mods, but the best functional mod I've ever used.

Is this only required for the LTD/Premium or also the Pro? Thanks.

#1246 3 years ago

Was pretty happy to find a surprise on the Kiss Pro I recently picked up. A Gene Simmons autographed plastic. Not sure it adds value to the game but a nice feature.

Quoted from CypherPinball:

New to the club. Bought a pro that's on its way right now from Las Vegas. Should be arriving next weekend (shipping to Michigan). Is there an easy to follow tutorial for using pinball browser to change the songs? In general I'm happy with the stock songs, but I do really want to get psycho circus on the pin. Also any tips for making sure volume matches stock? When replacing a song, are you also able to replace the corresponding text on the dmd? Sorry for all the questions. I am noob, just bought my first pin 2 months ago. (TMNT)

I have played around with the music on my AC/DC with pinball browser. It is a lot harder than people make it out to be. The problem I found was linking the songs so there is no gap between when the different tracks play for a specific song. For example, the game will play a certain track before the ball is launched. So you have to create a file from the given song you want that will play in a continuous loop (and sound right). Then when the ball is launched, a new track will play. The two tracks have to sink perfectly or there will be a slight gap in the sound, or the two tracks will not blend perfectly and not sound right.

I be interested to know how people have overcome these issues when changing out the music. Audacity is a great free program for creating the sound files for pinball browser. Let me know how it turns out.

Quoted from JustEverett:

Too much to spend on some flashing lights for me. I’m sure someone out there would pay $1,000. Just not going to be me.

I might be tempted to let mine go for $1k US.

Quoted from CypherPinball:

Thanks, any suggestions on where to pickup some round kiss stickers. I really like the rock and roll over I saw someone put in their disc. But, I'm not finding anything when I google.

Is this an issue on the Pro as well or only the Premium/LTD? Never heard of this issue before. Thanks.

#1323 3 years ago
Quoted from CypherPinball:

We have a pro. And from what I've read combing through this thread and others, it was mostly an issue with early produced pro's, where the rubber would leave marks on the balls, and subsequently the playfield.

Ok, thanks. Not sure what rubber this is referring to? Will have a closer look at my Gene head. Haven't noticed any issues with the playfield getting marked up.

#1329 3 years ago

If anyone comes across a too good to be true Kiss Limited for sale, one was just stolen in Sault Ste Marie in Ontario. May pop up for sale in Michigan or Wisconsin. Will try to get more details on the serial number, etc. Thanks.

#1340 3 years ago

Does anyone sell the individual plastics over the bumpers? Thanks.

#1343 3 years ago
Quoted from TwilightZone:

Just bought a HUO Kiss Pro and loving it. Unfortunately it has wrinkled decals by both flipper buttons and a couple of other areas with bolts. The ones by the flipper buttons concern me as I expect they will get worn quicker. I normally install mylar protectors around the buttons, but cann't with the wrinkles. Is there any way to flatten the wrinkles?
Thanks!
Duane

I think most of the Pros have this problem. I have seen a few and some are really bad. If money is no object, my game has these installed and protects the flipper button area 100%

I was looking to sell my original Stern topper to someone. Does the new owner need to buy a splitter to power the topper as it appears to be wired into a common connector with other stuff. I'm not sure if Stern sold this connector with the topper? Thanks for your help.

Nevermind, figured it out. Entire connector comes out as plugged into an extension cable.

A color DMD would be awesome!

I heard the crowd scenes are very hard to colorize.

These toppers are doing as well as Tesla shares

#1366 3 years ago
Quoted from JustEverett:

Ouch. Say what you want, but I'm only buying stern toppers and not the machines from now on.

Almost makes sense if you want to make a return on your investment.

Quoted from Guinnesstime:

Wow. The last code update made it easier for sure, but that's still a hell of an achievement, ESPECIALLY in 10 games.

That's like my wife who got a two card Royal Flush the first time she played poker. Very impressive scores!

If anyone wants to customize the music to their Kiss Pro, Premium or LE, send me a PM and we can discuss the details. Can change any existing song that you don't like with another Kiss song or song of your choosing. Also can update the song name at the start of the screen, etc. to be consistent with the song change. Cheers.

If anyone wants to add a custom aluminum edition plate number to their Kiss Pro or Premium, I can make you a custom one. Most people like to use the last four digits of their game's serial number. Can be customized for any game or for a dedication, etc. $20US plus $6 shipping in the US, or order two plates and free shipping. Size is 1.5 inches x 5 inches. Cheers.

Quoted from thundergod76:

Do you have an actual pic of the KISS plate and not a graphic? Thanks!

Not yet, but once the next order is made, I can post one. I am flexible on graphics to include, if you want to change up the two logos. I thought the Kiss Army logo might look cool as well. Thanks.

For those interested in the custom edition plates for the Pro/Premium, here is an example of one I did for a fellow Pinsider. You can order on the link below if interested. Comes in silver or gold lettering. Can be customized to anything you want. Thanks.
