In the settings of the game u can adjust the coil strength. Lo.

#3352 3 months ago

Thanks I will check out what it is set at when I get home

#3353 3 months ago

defect translites are spoken for, but a new run should be in shortly.

Quoted from Mttw:

I have a strange question. My flippers feel stiff and almost too powerful. The solenoids the correct ones. It is difficult to make the side captive ball on the left side and the scoop shot on the right. Is this normal for this machine? Also are data east flippers like this? It plays completely different then my Junk Yard flippers.

Yes. Data East flippers are stronger than WPC flippers.

If you adjust your flipper bats down a bit against the flipper alignment holes, it will allow you to hit those shots a bit easier. Those shots are very late on the flippers as it is.

General question. Would a failing capacitor (the big blue boy in the bottom left of the cabinet) cause the shaker motor to run super slow and intermittently? It will turn on occasionally but its super sluggish and really sounds like its struggling.

Thanks!

Is this during gameplay because that's normal in test mode.

Both gameplay and test mode.

#3358 3 months ago

inspect shaker motor and make sure the axle spins freely.

#3359 3 months ago

Inspect the shaker board on the side of the cabinet for unsoldered diodes or resistor.

#3360 3 months ago

You beautiful people and all your knowledge. This is my first pinball machine and there’s A LOT I don’t know to look for. This community is amazing at pointing people in the right direction. Thank you so much, there was a resistor that unsoldered itself on my shaker motor board. Going to fix it this morning. Thank you all again!

No merit, the same thing happened to me. I found the unsoldered resistor quickly but then wasted two weeks trying to figure out why it was so weak in test mode... to find out it was by design.

There’s definitely a Megadeath song in there but I don’t know which one. But with a pin sound card you can put it in there for sure!

Here is what I found from some preliminary digging.

I've been a pin player for a long time, but relatively new to Pinside. This is also my first post. I've had a Last Action Hero Pin for ~25 years and love it. More recently I've been renovating it with several upgrades and mods. I noticed something that must be a mistake during manufacturing, my speaker covers have the Data East Star Wars print on them, not the LAH golden tickets, ref pictures.

- Does anyone know where I can purchase or obtain the proper LAH speaker covers/screens?

- Thanks in advance

Looking good!

I think you have a star wars speaker panel. But wow it looks really good with that shadow effect on the deathstar.

How did u score this game 25 yrs ago!?

#3376 73 days ago

I purchase it for my kids Christmas in ~1998 at Kentucky Game Exchange in Lexington, KY.

I didn't realize that the speaker grills were wrong until I joined Pinside and saw all the correct versions.

Pretty sure I have a set but working away at the moment, drop me a PM

#3378 72 days ago

Most likely an operator just needed to outfit the game with a working dmd so he swapped in the speaker panel complete with dmd, speaker and deathstar grills.

If ur looking for the movie poster style translite, send me a dm!
