Quoted from UltraPeepi:

If you have the switch arm, you probably only need the switch itself. In fact, if you have the switch arm, you can probably find another switch somewhere in the machine and swap them out.

Quoted from Hazzard:

Hi! I can tell you that the latest version is a whole lot better than the one in the YouTube video. I can PM you some sample clips later this week if you're interested.

Quoted from Jtm3:

Make sure the coin door is closed (or the cherry switch is depressed) should work then. It is a safety feature that disables the higher voltage stuff when the door is open.

Quoted from ccbiggsoo7:

prob blew a fuse when you fixed the other thing. or didn't hook something up correctly. if it worked before, its something you did. check fuses first.

Quoted from ccbiggsoo7:

make sure you change that back asap to the right size fuse.

Quoted from pduffy:

New to the club! ColorDMD and art blades ordered.

Quoted from Ven:

Does anyone out there need a set of inlane plastics?
I made up a new set because my machine was missing them and I made a few extras $25 plus shipping for a pair.

Quoted from pduffy:

Updated with color dmd and artblades today!

Quoted from pduffy:

I got them from Tilt Graphics.

Quoted from HIPPY:

What happened to Pinsound? You will be surprised how nice the game is with the download. All right out of the movie. Your old plasma dmd will sell.

Quoted from Colsond3:

Cool, if I come across any parts for it I’ll let you know. Speaker panel is not easy to find. Get the color DMD (even if just the extender like I had). Definitely worth the upgrade on this game.

Quoted from GLSP3022:

Thanks! I have leads on the panel overlay and the driver board.
Mainly looking for the wooden board everything attaches to now. Speakers are cheap enough

Quoted from GLSP3022:

I don't know. Luckily a pinsider had one laying around and saw my ad. It's not pretty but better than not having one.

Quoted from wugly:

check the lamp matrix and see if the lights have a common wire. sometimes the wire breaks in the middle of daisy chaining and you get some that work and some that don't or the connector burns up at the board. sometimes the fuse is good and the bridge rectifier burns out backbox bridge f2 and. check if fuses are blown but also check to make sure with a meter that it is producing power.

Quoted from HyyL:

Hi! I’m also in the club. My piece isn’t in the best condition but now after some work it plays well.
Bought this game since I remembered it from being a kid putting coins in a machine yelling “I will have revenge!!”. Great game and even more fun than I thought it would be.
Still some work to be done. The game was filthy as shits and I’m still not finished cleaning everything. The monsters head doesn’t turn so that needs to be taken care of. Planing on buying a new servo motor but haven’t located a replacement yet. Anyone have a link maybe? Preferably European site.

Quoted from jmountjoy111:

I picked up a Frankenstein yesterday in a trade. Turns out this is the same one that glsp3022 had and has been shown previously in this thread. It was the only sega large DMD I had not previously played. Man I have been missing out. What a cool machine.

Quoted from Colsond3:

I am not a big fan of Pinstadiums, especially with a $400 or $500 price tag. They seem to only light the outer edges on this game, and do nothing for the center of the PF. Plus I don’t like seeing their light strips running up the sides of the game or reflecting off other parts.
Mine is lit awesomely with mirror blades, a cool white LED trough strip and 4 added spots on the lower PF. And I think that was about $140.
So glad to have this game back.

Pinball Decals

Quoted from 7craig7:

How do we put a color display in MSF. I wuld love a step by step and what actually to buy.

Quoted from ccbiggsoo7:

i got one id sell, along with lots of other plastics from this game.

Quoted from JuanSolo:

Now that my game plays well I noticed tons of airballs smashing I to the sarcophagus bulb...made another lexan protector, turned out pretty good![quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from HIPPY:

I just got my new ramp. It is thick and beautiful. Highly recommend.

Quoted from carvindc200:

Thank you! in regards to your frank motor, is the servo board working properly? LEDs on it should indicate whether its functioning. If it is working then it almost has to be your servo motor itself. I believe you can get new ones from Marco or pinball life.

Quoted from GenevaMultiball:

Lopa Thanks I think those will work, I just wanted to get a general idea of what it should look like too.

Quoted from slizzap:

Thanks. I think it's more just a case of the before and after pictures not doing as much justice as seeing it in person. The mylar was really cloudy. I just took another picture of the playfield after the mylar and adhesive were removed trying to get the same angle of the light reflecting off the same point of the playfield as the before picture. So here's a better before and after picture. It's striking how much the color in the artwork just pops now. I'm gonna have to spring for a sheet of Invisiglass now...

Quoted from slizzap:

So I just spent the last 30 days giving my MSF some serious TLC. Just buttoned him up and put him back in service at home today. Pictures unfortunately just can't do it justice, but figured I would share a pic anyways.

I can't believe what a difference in gameplay this has made. One thing that really stood out is doing a full service cleaning on the Creature mech. Before when Creature Throw was on the default setting of Normal it would just dribble out of his hand, so I had to bump it up to Hard, which would then barely bounce off the glass. I pulled the whole thing apart, cleaned and polished all the metal brackets, replaced the coil sleeve and spring, and oiled up the center post that rotates the arms. The first test game I played with the glass off and wasn't thinking about that work...I triggered multiball and the creature threw the ball out of the game and hit me in the stomach before bouncing off the floor haha. I had to turn the setting back down to Normal, and now it's still bouncing off the glass.
Oh yeah...did I mention he's a world traveler? This MSF was built in Melrose Park, IL, sold to Holland and apparently put into service out there, then relocated back to the states and ultimately settled here...20 mins from its birthplace. I had to leave all the Holland tags on because...well, because. I haven't tested to see if it still actually takes Guilders when not on Free Play, primarily because I don't have any
