For folks who need 128x16 displays for data east games, I just saw at pintastic 2016 that the Boston pinball company had them available in their booth. I'm not quite sure when they started making them, but it looks like it was fairly recently.

Currently available MSRP $333. K's amusements, marco, and eBay. You can wait for Boston or buy one now.

They have been available already for 2 months.

Wondering if the initial pricing is still valid.

I'll stick with my glass displays for now. Thought someone else was working on these also.

Can you post a picture? I was thinking about doing the same.

I suppose the market's not there, but I'd love to see these recreated with a single 128x16 field, instead of blocks.

Anyone have a used old one they want to sell ?

Here you go! Really like the way it looks.

Eventually, I may. Trying to decide if I want to move to a red LED display.
Though, the money you spend on an original orange plasma display, you pretty much can buy one of these Boston Pinball LED displays for $300.

Have you tested the voltages to your DMD? You may not have a bad DMD. Probably should start a repair thread on your failure.

Good color. Can you snap another with some animations?

Two quick ones. Can post more later
