Time to kick this thread off!

Mine is on its way home right now. Looking forward to diving into the dev kit and getting into some new pinball experiences!

Lexy is just the beginning, some of the other games that come out of the box have great potential. The full power of this platform has yet to be fathomed. Features like network pairing for heads up games between units in different locations, cloud based competition, are all in the realm of feasibility.

Who else is awaiting their production date??

I'm expecting a bunch of bugs to work through, so a delay isn't the end of the world if it results in some improvments.

I don't know who is going to have the furthest shipping distance, but if mine shows up damage free that's good news for anyone in the states and it'll have a fighting chance of getting to Australia in one piece.

If all goes well it arrives tomorrow or Friday.

Welp, shipment didn't make it here as originally intended today, so now I wait on pins and needles till next week.

Feels like waiting for Christmas as a kid.

Everything that needs freight is horribly expensive.

Shipping was $1070usd and my taxes were over another $1000usd.

On average you pay 20% more...

Still waiting. Customs has been holding it since last Thurs. sigh

Headed home

It’s taller than standard games, new experience getting downstairs.

The height of the cabinet.
It is a good 3+ inches more than a standard cabinet.

You can see legs are all the same, but it is substantially higher up than the Dialed In beside it.

It is everything Gerry said it would be.

Lots to take in, absolutely unique, definitely not like the other manufactures.

Crating / Unpacking / Setup: As expected. Professionally done, printed manual pointed everything out. Back box bolts lock in at the sides, which was new for me. Wasn’t 5 minutes to setup.

Build quality: Overall excellent. The 3D printed parts are very high quality, the graphics are crisp, monitor(s) look good. No dead pixels

First Game: Sweet. Menu system is intuitive for the most part. Didn’t need the manual to figure out what was going on. LL-EE playfield installed out of the box. Plays smooth. The sounds and sights are different than a traditional pinball, became comfortable very quickly. Openness of LCD playfield physically, combined with the interaction on the screen is cool.

Oh yeah, going to try making some good videos tomorrow night.

Still need to break out a whole other playfield module sitting in the box yet!

Finally had some time to break open the 2nd playfield, Cannon Lagoon.

Just like the cabinet, it came super well packed. First thing I noticed when I opened the box was the huge LCD monitor on the unit.

Cannon Lagoon is a redemption style game, kids love it. See the ship, shoot the ship...

Upper playfield swap was as easy as in the tutorial videos. Didn’t take 5 minutes.

Cannon Lagoon becomes unlocked in the menu with the playfield installed and away you go.

The upper playfield module came with a whole specific set of cabinet decals / art, which are magnetic. Also comes with two lower playfield pieces to better integrate the whole theme.

Good question on the transferable software. Right now CL and LLEE came pre-loaded with no media.

I can delete software from the menu but I can’t add.

The pin connects to the internet via a wifi connection and I can download updates, so I assume if a new playfield module is detected you could be enabled to download the software from the server. (Total guess)

Still need to make some videos, been playing it any chance I get.

LL-EE is pretty solid, I love the warehouse mode where you go into different rooms in the warehouse to collect parts and you can go back and forward into rooms to make sure you’ve broken all the crates open and collected everything.

I never really caught on to that feature in the game play videos. So much untapped potential there.

The game play change, theming change between modes is pretty cool. The flippers also can become restricted in bullseye mode where you can’t hold the fippers up.

The kids love the mini-games. Straight forward, very visual (obviously), but way less intimidating than a full game. Only “complaint” is that they want me to leave CL installed because it is so fun for them, but I want to play Lexy.

I have not been brave enough to delete yet, but I guess it won’t magically come back at the moment.

Here is a poorly shot video showing off some of the basics of the P3.
I am not a pinball wizard, especially when I have a camera in front of me I don't want to fall off a pole it isn't mounted to. I'll do a better video once I find my stand to mount the camera above the playfield properly.

0s - Main Menu on boot
- You can see it locks out Cannon Lagoon because the playfield is not installed.

13s - System Manager
- Add / Remove software, Connect to wireless, etc.

50s - ROCS Mini-game
- Restricts you to the video playfield.

2:10 - Barnyard Mini-game
- The barnyard starts off dark and gets brighter. Kids under 5 enjoy this one.

3:12 - Lexy Lightspeed
- You can see call outs/directions are straightforward, lots of different modes.
- I didn't get a shot of the warehouse mode in this video.

Yup.
There is background music, volume is set independently for each game, this one was set too low.

It is a bigger cabinet than I had expected as well. Thank goodness for playfield swaps because my drywall patchwork isn’t good enough to deal with many more. Although I would like to get another when the heads up type games are out.

Got CCR installed tonight!

No surprises setting up. Installed the module software, game software, then the CCR playfield itself. Mucked with the sound levels to get everything nice and crisp. Up and running in under 10 min.

Love the concept, the playfield is impressive and as expected results in a totally different game from Lexy and Cannon Lagoon.

Looking forward to network play!

Got the backbox display running tonight and it’s a wow! Very easy install, it is the crispest LCD in all my pinballs by far.

Have yet to get a game in tonight.

Brackets are good, the shroud was just pushed up a bit. Kids were on it the moment there was room for them to weasel their way in.

Finally had a great session on it today. Lots of fun!

Had to tweek a few things to get the playfield working as expected, the ball would keep hitting top plastic on the right ramp preventing it from entering consistently. I expect it is something to do with the ball hopping a bit on entry.

I snipped off the zip ties and added some spacers to raise the enterance height and everything has been perfect since.
