Want to join the club. What's a fair price for NIB on the pro LED?

#3753 8 years ago
Quoted from bigd1979:

Give me a shout buddy

Just did!

Looks like I will have one next week. First NIB for me.

#3771 8 years ago

Finally joined today. Built 6/9 so not even a week old. Found these playfield numbers interesting. Just playfield numbers of a lot?

Love the game and can't believe I didn't care for it when it came out. It really was polished with the more recent code. FWIW this came with 1.64 code which is needs than the 1.63 Stern has in their site.

Quoted from Adios:

That's weird on the number after the English is that your serial number? Cool that there will be an update coming

Yep! That's the serial.

#3805 8 years ago
Quoted from knockerlover:

Those of you getting your machines. When did you place your order? I placed mine on May 29th. I heard about the factory issue, but ive seen a couple of you guys get yours!

I didn't order one actually. I've been on and off the fence for over a month thinking about it and called Friday. One had one that came in Friday. So I went and got it Sunday morning. Was afraid of I didn't get one now NIB while I can I may kick myself later.

#3827 8 years ago

I've had a few fly off with the sneeze guard installed already. 3 times in 200 plays.

Finally did some of the things I wanted to do since I got the machine. Nothing new mod wise to anyone here but did the Pinbits protectors, Pingraffix Pinblades, MezelMods fangs and tongue, Iamdarras coffin decal, and started tweaking some LED's. Cliffy's are on the way.

I wish I had someone that has 1.63 that can play my 1.64 that can say what the difference is. Has to be something very minor. Maybe they're waiting for us new to the club guys to be the guinea pigs lol!

#3881 8 years ago
Quoted from pinwheelz:

Just got myself a Metallica Pro LED and purchased flipper fidelity speaker upgrade. I was looking for those speaker acrylics that are the M from the Metallica logo. I'v seen them on a few machines on here but when I look online all i'm seeing are the ones with the "rock on" hand gestures (not a fan).
I'm assuming that M is trademarked and people are not able to recreate them. Any ideas on where I can get me a pair of those?

For the exact same reason I didn't get any yet. Bump for you and I! The M looks much better.

#3917 8 years ago

I can confirm j_m_, at least on the code tommyp and I have (v1.64) that Sparky shots are the only ones I've found that carry ball to ball as it was the first mode I kept going for since it was easiest. I've had mine now for two weeks and only in the past several days able to get all the multiball modes albeit not all in one game!

Quoted from Jeff_PHX_AZ:

What are the lights connected to? I tried pausing to see where you tie into at. Like the idea and want to do this. Thanks

I tapped into the same lights that trigger the bulb over the snake's head on mine. I ended up using a green LED strip but same idea. Really helps add more light/color to the area.

Had my first stuck ball on this machine. Took a few to realize where it went!

#4362 8 years ago

Just installed the side lights from Pinball Refinery. They look fantastic in game play. I opted for the "extra" stickers on the corner protectors and happy with how it looks.

Looks fantastic. Put it off as I wasn't sure initially. Really adds to the gameplay. Even my scores picked up.

On my Met Pro the wire was in the back bottom of the cab but didn't use the Red Tremor shaker from CT. Would assume it's the same connector though.

Quoted from cards25:

Can someone post a link to the metal up-post for the orbit. I can't seem to find it on pinball life's site. And no way am I digging through 92 pages of this thread.....LOL

4400-4500 range mid 2015 with some throwing extras in for that. This was NIB June built LED PRO bought in June.

I only had mine since June and almost 1100 plays. Mostly me. I guess we're earning our money back?!

Quoted from Jaybird815:

http://www.pinballlife.com/index.php?p=product&id=3591
It's still not 100% but it makes a world of difference

Agreed, 1500 plays or so and still think it's an improvement. I've had this machine for a year now and still play it regularly.

I should be out cutting the lawn now instead of updating the code. And I'm now realizing more that I should have gotten a color DMD for this long ago.

#7391 7 years ago

I'm loving it. I'm a poor player but seeing the improvements. In Battery I heard what was at least a new to me call out: After Sparky was hit a few times he says, "What the F%*$?!!!"
