Quoted from hank527:

The front decals were bubbling and I needed to put small holes in them to get the air out.

The Start button light does not work. I'm not sure if this is all games as the diagnostic menu does not yet tell you which light is what. So not sure if the code is not there for the start button or if it does not work

The legs seem to have oversize holes as there is quite a bit of wobble that I need to figure out what to do. I may try some pipe thread.

After 20 plays the captive ball block is beat to hell. I suspect this will harden over time with repeat plays.

The area where the ball disappears is already starting to wear.

I basically started preventative maintenance. Putting extra clear coat around the shooter lane, the holes, the one magnet area by sparky. Put mylar down where the ball exits the shooter lane ramp. Putting hole protector in mystery scoop.

Get on the phone to Stern.

Is it me or does the video from Stern regarding the Premium and LE features look like the magnet grab has a protector on it?

I don't think its the lighting because you can see the other areas like the stand ups where you can tell its wood. Also the snake as a metal protector by the looks of it. I have also attached the first pics of the LE when they came out.

Quoted from extraballingtmc:

So will stern send the rest of us protectors if we ask?

We can at least ask right?
