I played one of these in Oviedo a few weeks back and really liked it. Picking up a stock MET Premium Monsters next week! My first Stern pin - I've always been a Williams / Bally / Gottlieb guy but really looking forward to this one.
I plan to pickup a set of Cliffys, a playfield protector, and the skull button protectors first thing.
After that - if you had to rank the MODs available for this title - what would you get first, second, third.. etc?
Quoted from MustangPaul:You do know you can rotate pictures now by selecting rotate after you download the picture.
Sorry - thought I did - just too excited about playing My MET 
It's fixed now!
Quoted from j_m_:does anyone not search any more before asking? this took me all of 10 seconds to find with a google search. geez people

Yeah dipsh*t - I did search - paid for a pair - money was refunded. They are out of stock and he is not making more.
Quoted from PinballMikeD:It looks pretty damn good to me. I'll get it added to the master macro file.
Ok, my turn JM..... How does this look:

No worries, an MET apron is coming
Wow that is really nice Mike!
Quoted from j_m_:before you go off on me, at least I was trying to help you out. no where did you say that you had already attempted to order from them, did you? nice social skills
My social and communication skills are just fine.
I find it hilarious that you believe you are a victim.
You were the one making assumptions about me and prefacing your "helpful" comments with rude and cutting ones.
To clarify - I did NOT ask "can you please search google to find these for me because I am too stupid or too lazy."
What I did ask was "did anyone pick up an extra set they didn't use and would sell." Do you have a pair for sale?
My suggestion is that if you genuinely wish to be helpful in the future you do so with a kind heart and helpful spirit instead of prefacing your "help" with rude and cutting remarks - or better yet - just don't post anything if you have no relevant information to share.
Please accept my sincere apology for my reaction - I do realize that the written word is very precise and not everyone has the capacity to master it's nuances. I accept the possibility that I misinterpreted your intent and will comment no further about it.
Quoted from busa32927:thinking of getting a shaker for my Metallica. Are all shakers the same? is there one better than the other? How does the one at marco compare?
I have no basis of comparison - but have the Stern shaker and it's plenty powerful.
Quoted from Concretehardt:Looks like a new run of Met Premiums is confirmed.. The game is too damn good to not make more!
Source? I didn't see anything on Sterns site or on their facebook site unless I just missed it.
Quoted from Concretehardt:Several distributors got notice from Stern today that Met Premium Monster will be run again shortly... I am hoping they do a roadcase as well.
That is excellent news!! Everyone who wants one should have a MET - it IS a great machine!
Quoted from Aurich:Just the backglass? No. Buy a whole LE off someone or skip it, nobody is going to sell it separately. The Monsters one is hard to come by, but doable. Pro is easy.
I don't like the Master of P translight or art as well - so I picked up an early Premium and made my own version with EL tape in the side armor. 
I really enjoy my MET - its a great game and fun to play.
That said, every time I play it I find the "Casket Multiball" call out SUPER annoying when clearly a Coffin is built into the playfield. Hell - it even says "Coffin" on the DMD display. I have heard others suggesting it would be a simple "fix" to change the DMD to spell "Casket" - but this does not fix this either. For those who may not know - caskets have straight sides while coffins flare out at the shoulders. They really are two different and distinct items.
If James Hetfield is as big a pinball fan as is reported maybe he could be persuaded fix his voice call outs to say "Coffin" instead of "Casket"?? How do you f-up something this basic when creating voice over scripts?
Quoted from Roostking:I'm going to go out on a limb and say know one cares about the difference between a casket or coffin lol. Well you and the guy who thumbs upped ya haha
I'd think it would bug anyone who knew the difference - like the difference between "know one cares" and "no one cares". LOL
Quoted from Jeff_PHX_AZ:Anyone got the snake mod for their game from Pingraffix? I just saw it today. My only issue as it is nice except it missing it's tail, kinda just ends at the start of the wireform ramp. I do like it, wanted see what others thought, or have it installed.
I was disappointed - I saw it an hour after the email went out and it was already sold out when I tried to order one.
Other than that - I love it - think its pretty awesome - but just wish I had been quicker to see the email. 
Guess I'll wait to see what they come up with at the end of the tail... Really, really great mod though!! Thumbs way up!!
Quoted from TKDalumni:Can't seem to find the fangs anywhere...any leads?
Best deal is here:

Quoted from kpg:this is the best thing I could have done to the machine.
I agree the Aurich hammer is awesome - but arguably - you need to get some fangs in your frog.
Quoted from Rob_G:For you LE and Premium owners. Does your hammer 'bounce' when it activates? The hammer on my game goes down, comes up a bit and then goes down again. Last year I experimented with different spring tensions on the coil assembly, but that did not help. Has anyone found a solution for this?
Rob
Yep - mine bounces - it started when I updated to the newest rom version. This version also added 'wiggling' of the ball on the disappearing magnet. I figured it was just part of the update. Now I'm curious if that is the case.
