Quoted from PinMonk:

Indiana Jones is wrong, too. The art is clearly different on willie, and I don't care how much he denies it, the black keylines show signs of autotrace in Illustrator (fatter and longer than original art). Willie looks like a vampire because most of her teeth in the middle are missing on his.
On the non-glitter playfields, the "Y" in shorty is wrong, the yellow just disappears and you can see the art underneath.
Lots of stupid stuff like this that could have been caught by the community if he had let more eyeballs on the art before he ran them.

Quoted from Kevster219:

No I was able to take some tonight tho. I added washers and got them just snug enough which I did in the first place but I hope this is the end of it. I also sanded the edges of the through and hole. There has been a cliffy on the hole since day 1 but not covering 100% you can see the chipping. Oddly none of my star posts have pooling so fingers crossed it holds up.[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from Pintopia:

Drilling a whole that was missed or opening up holes that were to small as has happened on several CPR playfields makes me laugh my first playfield swap was a Funhouse back in I believe 2005 ish. The playfield was a remake by Gene Cunningham, one of his first. There was NO dimpling on the backside, yes that’s the way they were sold!
So I had to take my old playfield sand the bottom side then place tracing paper on it. Identify some orientation points between the two an mark with pencil each an every screw hole. Then line that up with my new playfield secure it then used a sharp spring loaded punch to dimple it myself…
Turned out great
Still have the game today…

Quoted from CLEllison:

Only way to teach Mirco a lesson is with your wallet.
After reading he's selling a members custom TOTAN code even after the member said "stop" .... yeah he's a dirt merchant that needs a blanket party.

Quoted from Haymaker:

Because its rumored that Mirco has a stake (as in part ownership or other agreement) with JJP, so they couldn't ditch him even if they wanted to.

Quoted from CLEllison:

Reach out to Ron Kruzman via [email protected]. Send pics of your current playfield and ask him to quote restoring and clearing the OEM VS reclearing a mirco. If you do go the mirco route ensure you ask Ron to do the inserts as he's mentioned several times about inserts dropping.
Sadly, you're not the only one being forced to either play on a hammered playfield or buy a Mirco.

Quoted from HobbyGuy:

Given the spare playfield I had to work with, I didn't bother to ask about repainting it - BH doesn't have a simple playfield pattern like old EMs and it's too far gone for anything but a dedicated art project for me. But he did offer to paint some extra detail on the Mirco, so maybe that's more his approach these days. I can't speak for him on that.
As much as I'd like to, Mirco + Ron > cost of average BH. Gonna have to think a bit on this one. The PF that's in the machine is pretty good, much easier to paint and fix, but that means no pinball while it's apart. And Ron did tell me that Mirco operates close to on-demand, meaning that any PF from them would need to dry for 4-6 months before installing....

Quoted from Pastor69:

Received my new Medieval Madness playfield a month ago. I did notice a few dimples after closesly examining, but besides that the clear does seem good now. Screwed in a post and let it sit for a few weeks, nothing seems off, no chipping or anything. You can't say that he is not trying. Not taking any risks though, will still install a playfield protector on that thing.

Quoted from Coyote:

Woah. Pooling? That's more like a lake_.

Quoted from pencilneck:

Funhouse playfield. I got the game completed just a couple of days before Southern Fried 2022. Take the game down and set up Friday afternoon and by Sunday morning the clear was pooling and chipping in a few spots.
No rights holder should licenses anything to the morons at Mirco... if they haven't figured out how to clear coat by now, then they are really stupid or just simply do not care.

Quoted from Williampinball:

Ya everything about his PFs is just not right at all wtf how is this even right too even too sale

Quoted from DeeGor:

I purchased a TAF playfield from him back in December of 2022. I let the playfield sit for a few months to fully cure in a dry spot in my game room. I went to start my restoration and found that the playfield warped badly. I emailed Mirco and he tried to convince me that the playfield would flatten out once I started populating it, but based on how warped the playfield was. There was no way I was going to put a single screw into it, because once I did, there would be zero chance I would be able to return it.
To Mirco's credit, he did eventually replace the playfield once I showed him the videos I took. It's just unfortunate that he has so many of these issues, as he has a lot of playfields that nobody else is making and they do look great.
Based off HEP's latest video, I sure hope he didn't resell it.
Here are some of the pictures of the playfield.

Quoted from KJS:

Unfortunately there are none of the first run around.
Agree it's a nice gesture but I still want the game for myself but more importantly for my son without going into detail. All I want is a replacement pf and happy to do the swap and return this at my cost as stated to both distributor and Stern. But the pictures Patrick sent of the games in production seem just as bad.[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
