Quoted from o-din:Two questions Rick-
First, thanks for making this possible.
1. Will this repro have the lockbar holes in the front of the cabinet like the original, and if so can they be deleted.
2. How and where will the plaque be attached, and can it be ordered not attached to the machine.
Thanks.
These are my exact questions. Please don't put lockdown bar holes in the cabinet. Also, I'd rather not have a plaque that is going to be too obvious or overwhelming.
Guys, Rick already expressed he was somewhat annoyed by having to sift through all the dialogue here to find the questions. We should stick to QUESTIONS only. We should really refrain from jokes, trivia or debates before we annoy him away. Hopefully, we haven't already. Not trying to be a jerk but, we can continue to get a lot of good information here. Let's not ruin it.
Quoted from DeathHimself:Personally I think the poor guy has answered just about everything and more then once too. What I'd like to see now is those additional photos of the Proto unit he has. Maybe they can get posted as a sticky with no replies so all can see the images right off the bat with having to sift through posts.
I completely agree. That's why I don't want to annoy him. I'm looking forward to some pictures soon, hopefully.
Quoted from IdahoRealtor:And I don't drive the paint job on my car, but I still want a good-looking paint job. It's reasonable for people to want something that plays well AND looks good.
I really really hate the use of car/pinball comparisons here lately. But, yours was good NorCalRealtor. LOL good one.
Quoted from PPS:I do like the look of the black chrome ...
Maybe a poll could help decide what to do.
Quoted from LTG:Not possible. Too much obsolete stuff.
Look at any of the new replacement boards, only thing the same is the connectors. Lots of subtle little differences because changes had to be made.
And with a Williams power driver board, you have your work cut out for you, if something goes wrong on it.
Look at PPS's three driver boards mounted under the playfield. Identical and interchangeable. Easy to swap around, narrow down a problem, and deal with it.
I wish a lot of things were made the way they used to. It isn't always possible.
LTG : )
Sorry LLoyd. Changed my post. Didn't want to discourage Rick. But, for those curious, I had said I hoped all the old electronics was used.
Quoted from WIKED:Rick, you're doing a great job informing us on what's going on and supplying your cell but have many people even rang you on it after complaining on here?
I bet not. Most are just keyboard tough guys. Like me! 
These past few weeks, I had honestly been considering offering to trade my NIB MMR LE for a collector quality original MM. After reading all the recent MMR news, NO WAY! MMR sounds so much superior with all the updated electronics, software upgrade abilities, less maintenance (no more changing bulbs every few weeks), no more pulling a million cables to change a transistor (sounds like we can just replace the whole board now for a reasonable price). And, now the black trim option being available puts the icing on the cake. Can't wait to open up, touch, smell, and play my NIB MMR. Kinda reminds me of my "first time" as a teenage boy lol.
Quoted from calvin12:WTF do you do that you are changing bulbs every few weeks in a game? If you are swapping stuff that often you have bigger problems.
Sorry, let me look at my bulb changing log to give you a more accurate time frame 
I always thought a lot of Pinsiders were being very petty when critiquing this machine. But, the black powder coat chosen seems to be a legit concern. IMO, it looks too industrial like and not like an elite LE machine. I thought it was pretty obvious from previous posts that most preferred a smooth gloss black finish. I still like the machine and am keeping my order but, I think I'll just be sticking with the stainless. Still, thanks for your efforts, PPS!
