My Metallica Pro just arrived today! Buddy is setting it up right now while I sit at work jumping out of my skin in anticipation. Gonna be a long night!

Just played my new MET fresh out of the box for like 9 hours with some buddies. So awesome, everybody was in awe. Great machine, no regrets here!!!

Just fixed this on my Metallica pro using felt foot pads cut thin to fit between the metal prong and cabinet wood. It works great now, although if the auto launches ever get weak I will replace the felt.

Oops thought you meant auto plunger didn't read carefully enough. Anyway if anybody is getting weak auto plunges the felt pad is the fix.

From your picture it looks like your plunger is aligned a little to the right.

Looks awesome. Would love one of those.

Yeah, my pro has the spotlights. They get smashed by airballs all the time though.

I had this happening yesterday also, i pushed together the wire connections to make sure they weren't loose and the problem has improved significantly. Still get it once in a while though.

Just wanted to say I've had my Metallica for a couple months now, and I can't get enough of it. I really hit the jackpot getting it as my first pin. I will never let it go. I have since added the shadow, tftc, Star Trek and soon creature, but MET blows the others away. I do love the shadow and tftc too, but man. This game is on another level. Just my humble opinion! Would be interesting to know how many MET owners also consider it their favourite pin.

What if the grave marker held one of your balls during multiball for a hurry-up shot? Then release after 5-10 seconds. That'd be cool. I agree the dead hits are disappointing.

Yeah coffin stacks with all multiball modes.

I agree with this 100%. In my case, I bought the pro and I consider it the best pin i've ever played (although I am partial to MM as well) so I haven't regretted getting the pro for a second. You will not "miss" anything and it comes at a great price point, especially if you can get the old incandescent version for a deal and do the LEDs yourself. However, I split the cost of my MET with a friend, and purely because I love the pin so much if my friend wanted to buy me out of the pro I would seriously consider getting the premium as it will never be leaving my house.

Actually if somebody could post instructions on how to swap out songs I would appreciate it.

Thanks. My buddy is a musician and sound editor so he can customize song length.

Yeah waiting for my MET was the longest couple weeks of my life. Welcome to the club!

Yeah, I did pretty much did the same thing with my CFTBL. Was kind of rough getting the legs on.

My sparky head had a scuff mark too, i think it looks good like he's a bit scorched.

Make sure the plastic is clean where it slides down. Don't know if that will help but worth checking.

Thought I would post this here in Case anyone has the same problem, I was having issues with sparky only registering a hit about 80% of the time, swapped the opto connections on the opto board and it seems to have fixed the issue. They are labeled switch 53.

Actually my friend said the same thing about his TFtc

Sounds like a leveling issue to me...

Old electronics made to last, new ones made to self destruct? Hope it's not a sign of things to come...

One of the fangs broke off my snake the first day I installed them. Curiously the second has been fine ever since. They are cheap so prolly worth the investment till they break. Super glue can fix.
