Quoted from cheshirefilms:They look terrific this way when done right, best in class, but perhaps even a milimeter or two of oversized cabinet relative to the decal creates this problem, requiring extra stretch to fit. I would think there would be tension tolerances.
So far, issue seems localized to the front. Any possibility of there being over tightening of the side rail(s) being at all at fault?
How's that MB of yours bro? Enjoying it?
Quoted from cheshirefilms:Very much so. Excellent game. Easy to play, difficult to master.
Just as hard to get to Monsters of Rock as to stack 3 multi's in BSD-
Even harder if you leave the default no ball save on (even BSD has a default ball save...)
Waiting on RGB trough lighting from Lermods, side decals from Silly Old Elf.
Expect to buy a Franks table at TPF from Mezel, and perhaps Pyramid mod if that's ready as well.
Great to hear that! I'll probably buy an SE myself but with news of cabinets splitting I may wait it out a bit...
Thanks for the info guys! I wonder why they can’t correct this issue? I hold CGC to a higher standard
Quoted from Ricochet:This is where I'll put all of the logos that I make:

You make these? Cooool!!!!
Quoted from AstonEnthusiast:Unboxed our LE this afternoon. Several cosmetic issues out of the box: Cracked decals on two corners, blue powder coating blemishes, broken plastic part fell out of the game and a few other items (repaired wood w/ black paint or ink on the topper). Submitted a ticket and waiting for an update.[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
That’s horrendous! CGC should be ashamed of themselves! This is unacceptable!
Quoted from CGC-Ryan:I want to address the reports of cracks in the decals on the upper front corners of the Monster Bash cabinet.
As of today, this issue has occurrenced in less than 1% of all MBr games shipped. We had seen a similar issue on AFM and changed the way we wrap the decals. It seemed the issue was resolved until we started shipping in colder weather.
We have been proudly building cabinets since 1977 for nearly every pinball manufacturer and take great pride in what we build. Every game goes through multiple levels of quality control to ensure that the game going into the box is of the highest standards. We understand what the pinball community demands from a NIB game.
I want to let everybody know that this is only a decal issue and not an issue with the cabinet construction. We have built hundreds of thousands of cabinets utilizing the same corner joints and have had remarkably few issues.
In an effort to stop all cracking on the decals, we will no longer wrap the decals around the corner. We feel that this should decrease the overall risk of potential decal splitting.
What’s the reason for wrapping the decals around the corners when the originals were never done this way?
If it was in fact a "weather issue", How come the tears/cracks only happen in the same area/corner of the cabinet? I would assume the weather would affect other parts of the cabinet as well no?
Quoted from Mdanielb:Obviously, CGC thinks this is the ultimate solution, or they wouldn't propose.
I wonder why they didn't stop this practice when AFM started tearing a year ago? I wonder why they kept wrapping decals around the corners with MB? They should've stopped with AFM.
Quoted from Mdanielb:I just got one of the last Ghostbusters produced in December. Both the front decal, and the side decals are cut back a good quarter inch from the corner, and the corner is rounded off. I don't find this a terribly pleasing install, but I agree - better than busted up artwork!

I wouldn't expect less from Stern
Quoted from drummermike:My SE is now cracked. It was not cracked when I got it NIB.
