Lights to illuminate the apron itself.
Quoted from pinstadium:Any more guesses?
A lighting device that can bend the time continuum of space that makes me a good pinball player! Yep, final answer.

Then its first install needs to be on STTNG and call it the Q mod
Quoted from VillaThrills:I’m going with undercabinet lighting matched to your Orion’s Belt flashers. Whole room light show.
I will just say this. The product name is Hover. Not hang, Under, or spot. Think about how Scott develops his products. Always trying to Improve what he has done often based on user feedback. I suspect this as he noted is an Upgrade to what he has done to make it better.. To Hover........
Ah see now you made it too easy... Chuckwurt is right...no more hanging from the cabinet sides. No more knocking them off when you lift the playfield. No more tight playfield scraping up the magnets.
But I still want my whole room interactive lighting!

I like that the magnets get scraped instead of the mirror blades.

Great counseling session and way to round up the crew. Somehow I feel this is what you do for a living outside of making killer mods for pinballs
Quoted from Jimmyhonda:Congrats on the baby boy Scott! Chance is my nephews name. My guess is an trough light, possibley interactive or the ability to change the GI light color or flasher light color in Trough area.
Thank you so much I really appreciate it. It’s not trough or undercab lighting etc.
My real guess is an attachment to the playfield itself rather than the cabinet sides. This will allow the raising of the playfield while keeping the lights installed.

I like this answer and it would be great but not sure how that would be possible since all games are different.
Going to say a new spotlight system that ties into pinstadiums
I don't know how it could be done without having the design be unique to each machine, but based on the name of the product, I would also think it has to be some way to hang the existing pinstadium lights without being attached to the sides of the cabinet, so that they no longer have to be taken down for the playfield to be lifted...
I would welcome such a device, BTW, since I once again came within a hair's breadth of ripping apart the ones on Iron Maiden by lifting the playfield without taking them down... fortunately I caught myself just as I started to lift up!
Congratulations on the baby boy Scott, I had no idea he was so close to arriving! I figure by the time he's five he should be able to assemble those Pin Stadium kits pretty well.

Agreed lol. Why is it I can never remember to remove these before ripping them off lifting the Playfield? Lol. IF this isn’t the direction my next Mod will be a glass mounted Warning decal, “Remove the Pinstadium lights!!.

I was thinking the same but they would have to be removed before leaning on the back box though, right? Not that you're always lifting it to vertical but it certainly does happen.

Actually not that hard at all if he used a full hard shim stock usually around .015-.020” thick. Just thicker then a few sheets of paper. Adhesive mount to the rail top and bottom area adjustable by the game. As in the Lifted position the Playfield rests on the Playfield apron I see this working rather well.
Considering a Fusion for MMR and AFMR? Is this overkill for these titles or am I better off with the standard kit + 1 flasher? Thanks!
Quoted from jarozi:Considering a Fusion for MMR and AFMR? Is this overkill for these titles or am I better off with the standard kit + 1 flasher? Thanks!
Those two would be superb for Fusions and I highly recommend it for them without a doubt!! Lots of flasher options.
Hover is definitely for streamers. Goes on top of the glass for easy movement between games.
I’m looking forward to getting my Pin Stadiums for BM66 this week!

No question the Best game to add PS lighting. Love them all but this game like Deadpool makes the comic art pop! Congrats!
Lighting system that will mount to the playfield, not on the side walls. The product is a set of brackets that attach to the bottom of the playfield. Very thin, but strong, to support a newly designed light system that doesn't have to be removed every time you lift the playfied.
Quoted from GGBGROUP:Lighting system
Looks like you solved the puzzle! Hopefully these will work with pre-existing sets
Quoted from GorillaBiscuits:Looks like you solved the puzzle! Hopefully these will work with pre-existing sets
Pretty certain he makes all his gear fit the pre existing sets.

“Whatever” this is, it will work with new and existing Pin Stadiums so no worries.
Lights that hover via magnetic force kinda like those spherical speakers that hover like a death star?
I just got my Pin Stadium lights for my Rob Zombie machine. They came well packaged in a tube. It took a while to receive, but this is a very custom product.
When you get it you realize how much work goes into producing these. I couldn't wait to get them. They were mailed using USPS. I was not happy with the shipper. They kept notifying me that they were going to be delivered on a specific day and then they wouldn't show up. This happened 4 days in a row. Talking about getting your hopes up and then being disappointed.
The install was pretty straight forward. I thought I was going to have trouble with the GI and Flasher connections. I was not exactly sure where to connect and I did not know which flasher circuit to use. Fortunately there is a lot of support on the forums and I'm sure if it came down to it there would be good support from Pin Stadium. I made my connections, put my machine back together and fired it up for the first time. Amazing! What was once a dark play field was now well lit.
I had a little trouble with the phone ap, but only because I don't follow instructions well. If you read and follow the directions it will load, connect and work right. My first problem was trying to connect to the Pin Stadium lights using my 5g network connection. If you actually read the directions you would have seen the instruction which read do not use 5g. Go figure. This mess up caused me to loose the Pin Stadium signal. If I would have read the instructions I would have seen that you need to reset the Pin Stadium lights to the factory setting to get it to resend the signal. I wasted a lot of time by not reading and following instruction.
The ap makes all the difference. It allows you to customize and fine tune your lights. I can't help trying different colors, effects, tones, brightness. It's addicting. The way I feel about playing my game has totally changed for the better.

I am glad that you received them and yes the USPS has been slow recently unfortunately.
This brings me back to the early days of Pin Stadium a couple years back when I had some prototype versions on Rob Zombie. I sent some pics to Charlie from Spooky and he was blown away by them. I think your machines is one of the biggest transformations. The beautiful artwork just pops right out at you and make that game a whole new machine.
Excellent mentions you made of some common things that are overlooked. I think this post is going to be very helpful for those of you whom are considering the Pin Stadiums for your machine. Thanks for taking the time to post and as always for your support of the product. See you all soon at TPF: https://texaspinball.com/tpf/
I have a set on my RZ as well and they definitely helped getting the playfield lit up. One thing I wish would happen is for Spooky to code some better light shows for the game utilizing that purple flasher. Such as some crazy jackpot strobes or soemthing among those lines. That would give the flasher effect some killer features.

With no intention to discredit the PS product but RZ looks better when you Can't see the playfield. No lights at all lol. Sorry not a fan of the game personally but the lights look nice!
Quoted from Yelobird:Sorry not a fan of the game
Man I own the game and some days I feel the same way and others I find myself enjoying it again. It’s a really weird relationship me and this pin have.
Quoted from wotan:Any coupon codes celebrating TPF?
Sorry, had to ask
Yes for sure and glad you asked. Stay tuned....
TPF doors just opened. Here is the Pin Stadium booth before the crowd hit. There’s a shot of Scott Danesi checking out his TNA with the Pin Stadiums!!
