Quoted from mrossman5:You know it's bad when the best part is the fluorescent bulb in the translite.

well in all fairness. NOT being able to play X-files is actually the advantage here. This is the only game i'd say it's ok to puke out, because nobody wants to play it anyway.

That looks great. IF, i was ever inclined to play x-files ever again, it would be that one.
Quoted from Saltimbanco:You sir, are an example to follow!
Thanks! It’s always fun seeing the difference after replacing everything with white. It’s so much easier than figuring out which blinding colors to put where.

After owning it for a while, I’d have to agree. I wanted to like it SO much because I am a huge fan of the show, but it was a pretty big disappointment. What really got me were the callouts (or lack there of). They made literally no sense. When you start multiball, the callout is “I’m special agent Mulder with the FBI”. Like, why?

That show was so good, wasn't it? At least you have those great memories, lol, and that translite with Gillian Anderson.. even today, she's a stunner!

yes the show was great. The pin is one of the worst. Just like street fighter 2. One of the best arcades around. The pin is beyond horrible.

Quoted from hAbO:I fell out of my chair after posting it. Too fast
Blip Verts from Max Headroom came to mind!
Quoted from RGarriott:Another marketplace beauty. Iv seen some puke covered Old pins but Never with pukestadiams. Wow
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
That one could actually double as a sacrificial altar!!
And the only pin I would actually be ok to use EL pinguards under the legs would be Tron..
Quoted from Saltimbanco:But.. why?? What was wrong with the original bulbs?? And colors? And.. and..
We have been trying to figure this out for #5415 posts.

Pinball Magic? More like Pinball Tragic.
Quoted from 27dnast:Black Hole also looks great with some well placed ice blue on the upper playfield
I am definitely for moderation with LEDs but shit if I don't love how my Black Hole came out when I decided to go full-tilt blue. (High Speed? Inserts only. Incandescent everywhere else.)

Call it morbid curiosity, but what does your shuttle look like?
Quoted from Apinjunkie:Call it morbid curiosity, but what does your shuttle look like?
LOL - I appreciate your suspicion. All incandescent except the inserts. She's a beauty. That spare washing machine back there is pretty sweet too

I'm not as nuts about the washing machine but that space shuttle is a beauty, nicely done sir.

Have you considered adding some LED under cabinet lighting to that old washing machine?

Giving me some ideas for our dryer..!
Quoted from AlonzoMoselyFBI:Thanks - me either but it insisted on being in the photo
How is your SS coming along??
I couldn't be happier, added a lot of bells and whistles so don't know if this is the right thread to post an image but...

I was thinking more Pastel Man. Maybe a playfield mod with various pastel colors of yarn in a wicker basket would look lovely.

Oh yes I believe I've seen this in the photo gallery for SS -- bold moves man!

I like this actually, the apron theme and colors match the 'Nasa' design, etc.. shouldn't be posted here!
Quoted from Jason43:Is purple the new blue?
This being the 'worst color GI fails' topic, doesn't really matter what is purple and what is blue, does it? And any massive use of GI doesn't mean the end result is bad, IMO. That Space Shuttle, I like! It makes sense and it balances well with the theme. My brain doesn't tell me to puke it, tells me I'd like to play it!

Thanks for the kind words. This machine has been a labor of love for me for over 20 years now. And my goal was to brighten it up so you could actually see it from space, yet not blind the player or the people gathered around to watch the game. This Thread has been a helpful guide for me, for what not to do. Keep Flippin.
Quoted from snowy_owl:Firepuker

A tad on the blue and purple side of things but not that bad..
However, FirePuker would be a great name for a cornerstone! FirePuker PRO, FirePuker Premium, FirePuker Extra Chunky SE..

The Pro would just be a Dry Heaver, not an actual FirePuker. Stern would definitely charge extra for the puke.
