I'm so green with envy. I can't wait for mine to finally make it to my front door. It's been a long year. I fell bad for those that are going on two years now, then I go back to my feelings
Quoted from Tattoovic:Luckily no scratches on anything except slight smudge on the rear of the back box!! Those holes almost made me cry when I saw them! #534

Thanks buddy! See ya on the ig! Merry Christmas
Quoted from Kkuoppamaki:CGC is picking up speed, nice!
I have to admit if they are getting to Bakersfield and Perth now, the end for others waiting must be near.
Thanks drinkduffbeers! I was positive a fork had stuck it good
Quoted from drinkduffbeers:Wow that looked a close call. Glad it turned out OK
Woot mine turned up and it's late I'm tired and drunk 
Merry Xmas
Mr DKong would like you all to know that it was him that solved the disconnected Molex plug that caused the initial no power much worry issue
Other than that I adjusted a wire frame and we played and played 
Seems maybe a couple of small tweaks are needed.......after maybe about 30 games all up the ball caught before the Merlin's hole twice but fell in on ball search. Also we got two balls in the catapult and they would not eject properly so had to remove the glass. Is there a fix for that or does it just happen sometimes? would suck in comps.
Only other fault so far is the filthy big hand prints under the cab, come on dudes wash eh?
Very pleased there is no shipping damage and it plays well
Yeah very pleased with the game over all...........f&^k yeah
One other thing..... usually I like to keep my games at factory default....but the wide open outlanes are very unforgiving and seem harder than the couple of originals I have played. Anyone moving their post down some?
Quoted from Rat:. Anyone moving their post down some?
I haven't yet but the one I have on location is draining like a beast so I'm seriously considering it.
Quoted from DCfoodfreak:Did Twisted pins follow up in those orders?
Bump for further intel on this. I haven't heard a peep from them lately and I've been paid in full for 17 months, initial deposit for 25 months. Anyone else get notice of receiving an MMR from them? Whitey?

Nice dude! 2 MMR's in Bakersfield! Good thing nothing happened to it that box looked pretty bad.

Mine spent Christmas in a truck in Washington. Should get properly delivered Tuesday or Wednesday, was supposed to be Christmas Eve but whatever.
must say everyone whose played mine shits their pants the first time the shaker goes off,it does have a fair bit of oomph,i love it
After spending the holidays in a truck in Washington the courier finally finished delivering my black mmr. The Nitro boys picked it up this morning and brought it over, packed it in and set it up for me. Can't say enough great things about nitro amusements and the service and support they offer. I was in on gold for almost 2 years and switched about a month ago. Phew! The black looks sick, nothing like a de. Txs to tommy for pulling a few strings to make the switch possible. Here are some pics of #580 safe home in Canada.
Has anyone heard anything about the release date for the colour program?
Anyone know if matt McKee ever finished the mm topper?
Mine is here too! Plays fantastically.
I can't think of anything I'd do to it at this point except maybe a cliffy eject protector and swapping the rubber.
I will say, however, that I was a little disappointed in the overall cleanliness of the machine. The powdercoat looks really nice, no question. But when we unboxed the game at the shop this week, the bottom of the cabinet (as shown) was smudged. That's exactly how it looked when we cut the box opened. It's the bottom, not a huge deal, but still..
And second, the entire game (also as shown) was covered in dust. It's like they were doing final inspection next to the sawmill...
But that's only on the outside. The inside is nice and spiffy.
And it looks like they took the outside of the cabinet and wiped the decals down with a dirty rag. Streaky and just not impressed.
That said, all minor stuff that doesn't impact the game, and some time cleaning will take care of it. Just a little disappointed that the guys building the game couldn't do this before it went into a box. I've unboxed plenty of Sterns and never seen this stuff. But Sterns I have seen with dents, wrinkles, and other stuff not present here.
Enjoying the game. Shaker is great on here!

Greg,
That's crazy! Mine was minty clean. Glad it's just topical and the real hard stuff works well. Happy New Year!

Yeah. We have a second one in the shop that may get unboxed. Curious to see if it's the same.
Quoted from whitey:Twisted Pins ??? Hello ? Never again, I won't even purchase another remake or support it.
dang...you still having problems contacting them? i was able to sell my spot with them back in august...used that money to buy a virtual pin from vpcabs (which i absolutely LOVE, btw).
hate that you're still having issues.

Wow...I can't believe they'd ship something in that condition....I'd seriously complain. Apparently, CGC is just pushing them out as fast as they can. QC ought to be much better than this.
Quoted from whitey:Twisted Pins ??? Hello ? Never again, I won't even purchase another remake or support it.
I concur. Never again will I buy anything from Twisted Pins. By the way, what happened to those 6 games they were supposed to receive 2 weeks ago?
Got mine this past Monday and was lucky I guess because the machine looked perfect out of the box. Super clean and mint. Even the box looked like it was white gloved when I picked it up from the shipper's dock. #621, black, born on date 12/17. Plays like a dream. Purchased from Automated Services. Game left Chicago on 12/23 and was in Sacramento on 12/28. Very, very happy the long wait is over and couldn't be happier with the build quality. The wife finally believes that the 8k was spent on pinball and not a mistress. Thanks for finally coming thru CGC.

Had the exact same issues with mine after pulling it outta the box...not sure if I would want to buy another remake after the wait and then dealing with having to clean a new game right out of the box. QC was piss poor on the game I received.

Well at least I'm not crazy

I got a repy from Matt saying he didnt finish it. No idea on colour, but hopefully soon.
Quoted from rustyrivets:I got a repy from Matt saying he didnt finish it. No idea on colour, but hopefully soon.
That's too bad, wonder why he never finished it.
Hope that colour is soon. The preview looked awesome!
Quoted from whitey:Twisted Pins ??? Hello ? Never again, I won't even purchase another remake or support it.
Well it isn't the remakes fault, but us who bought from TP are in the dark and it sucks ass. I left a VM with church hill and haven't heard back, left two messages with TP and haven't heard..... I don't care if I'm 999, but just need some contact.
Quoted from extraballingtmc:#580 safe home in Canada.
You know your in Canada when both your techs show up with mullets. I was laughing my ass off. 
Mine was dusty and inside the cabinet was dirty and has about the same amount of crap left over in it like my other games bought.
Great game but no happy about the way it arrived for a NIB. I have had a few issues so far that I needed to fix but I can live with that part.
I wonder if any MMR owners have this damage under the speaker panel? Not great pictures but mine looks pretty ordinary.

Thats some nice QC there!
Quoted from ChrisS:You know your in Canada when both your techs show up with mullets. I was laughing my ass off.
Loving my MMR, however, two consistent "bugs" bother me...
1. The optical switch in front of the drawbridge doesn't always register a ball on the drawbridge/gate
2. The castle lock switch does not always register a ball lock/castle destruction even after adjustment
Is this normal for MM? I have limited experience playing an original and have no idea if this is normal, I appreciate your comments!
Check the under play field switch connections. If those look OK, open a ticket with CGC and someone will help you.
Marc
Quoted from LTG:1 - is the ball clearing the optos ? Going over the light beam ?
2 - check that the switch is on tight, may need adjusting.
LTG : )
1. It appears that ball is clearing the optos on both the gate and drawbridge, it only seems to not register when ball travels slow (but for the most part does register) Though the gate opto has not registered at faster travel as well. Can these be adjusted? If so, how?
2. Switch is on tight, I tried adjusting prior to my previous commenting, I made it more sensitive, seemed to help but is still not registering 100% of the time
Before I replied this time around I looked the game over rather closely, everything seems to be in order both under and on top of the playfield. I would rather not open another ticket on this if I don't have to, as I am already dealing with a sound problem that I had opened a ticket for, I will open another if I must, but figured my question was harmless enough to ask here first.
