Yes, there are 2 pockets. One for bolts and other hardware and another for balls.

I agree this is an excellent Idea and I will likely get one at some point just for buying and selling. Still better than throwing them in the backseat loose.

Thank you for making our hobby better.

Okay, so I don't personally need Pinball Armor, but it is a GREAT product in my opinion.

Then you do this. THIS is genius! Submitted my order for one. Greta idea! Nice to put the pockets for the bolts and balls as well!

Now THIS is something that has some sense to it and is worth producing.

Bravo, sir.

It says the Special Preorder price is $49.99. I am guessing it will go up once in production.

Hi guys,

Yes, standard price will be $59.95. We will also be offering it in a package with Head and Body Armor for $329.95 (this will be our Generation 2 Armor that can accommodate both standard and widebody machines).

For those of you who would prefer to see the product before purchasing, we will be at the Chicago Pinball Expo in October and we will have plenty on hand.

Thanks,

Darren

Hopefully when you receive the Leg Armor your question will be answered!

Hi Chris,

They are currently in production with a target completion date of the first week of August. I would estimate shipping around August 12, if not sooner.

I still use the poor mans leg armor.
It's called beach towel and it works really well.
However your product is very nice and well thought out.
Nice idea.

And almost more important than protecting the legs, if you're like me and you just usually throw them in the back of the car without wrapping them up or shrinking your pins when moving them a few miles, it will protect your art and coin door from legs slamming against them. This is a brilliant product IMO. The armor itself is questionable for ME, at the price it is...but this is just 100% win. 99% of my hassle moving games is dealing with the legs, bolts, and loose balls, to be honest.

Smart. There is a need for these. Are they padded?

Not sure. I've sent a couple of our Head and Body Armor sets to Europe and it was ridiculous. If anyone has a good suggestion for the most economical international transport, I'm all ears. And I'm happy to get a quote for Australia if you want me to check into it.

I have a few of theses units and I have moved pinballs from Arkansas to Texas to Illinois. It really protects the game. I have never got a nick or scratch on one of my games. This item is easy to install and is flat down right better than cardboard and saran wrap. I am a fan of the product but I love my games and I will keep them in the best shape I can. It sure saves money trying to restore a game in 10 to 15 years. FYI: I am picky! Great job Darren!

Hi guys,

Our production run is nearing completion so I thought I would post some pictures of our Leg Armor. Apologies in advance for the use of dirty legs… They were the easiest ones to grab! Note that balls easily fit in one of the pouches and the leg bolts easily fit in the other.

For those of you that have pre-ordered, we should be shipping within a week.
