    Dang it. Came here to post this but I figured you guys would beat me to it.

    Ridiculous LED job ✅
    Ridiculous price ✅
    Ridiculous condition claim of home use only with a tax sticker on front ✅

    This guy got a hat trick.

    I was going to post it. Between the blue leds and the toys all over the pf, how can one even play pinball?

    that question can be asked for nearly every game in this thread.

    Quoted from CaptainNeo:

    The dumbest piece of plastic in that game is the car above the pops. I watch closley when my ball is in there to see if I need to nudge if it slips down the left side. That car takes your viewing away from that.

    I know this isn't the "plastic shit toy" thread, but why?

    TZ is a fantastic game and deserves not to be puked out. Hell, no game should ever look like that Johnny Pinkmonic or Barf Wars..clean away man!

    I guess that's the answer to the 'would you or wouldn't you' question!
    However, gotta admit I really like that backboard decal..ties nicely with the playfield art.

    I was thinking the other day while driving to work...maybe we are being to hard on these works of art. I mean - do I have the skills to pukify a game as good as some as these are? Maybe it does take a keen eye, an artistic skill, or just deep study. I know I don't have the skills to pull off anything as ugly as that Hurricane the other day.

    If I had the time, I could try and take the challenge up to see if I could puke one of my games up. Maybe it isn't as easy as I think it is and we are being to harsh.

    Thoughts?

    #5788 3 years ago

    i cannot comment on the pinball for sale on facebook again for a week, because the admin is a big puss and can't handle people telling people when their games are unplayable pieces of shit and should never be put up for sale looking like that. So you guys are going to have to pick up the slack for me.

    Someone contacted me years ago and said they wanted to use color changing bulbs for all the GI & I still don;t think I've seen anyone do it; that's how you win!

    I have serious love/hate with this topic.

    Love because the comments are amazing and hilarious

    Hate because I'm a sucker for lighting and am pretty sure my Star Trek is a 5 Star Puke contender (I searched the topic pics and don't think I've been called out on here yet, no way I'm letting you folks have at it).

    Uhhhh, inject those LEDs into my veins.....

    Offer it up and just look at it as construction criticism, or as a coaching opportunity.

    My immediate thought is that you shouldn't be thinking about puking while driving, could lead to some serious case of road rage..!

    Also, rainbow art inspiration can be found here (wish it was a joke..!)

    Huh, let's see.. how can I explain 'puking' to a trekker..

    First .gif is warp speed as we expect it to be.
    The second one is a puked out warp effect: it just doesn't make any sense. Now, apply that concept to a pinball's GI, and voilà!

    Now, when can we see that ST PRO of yours? There's still time for a Christmas miracle!!

    My initial reaction was like, wow, that second graphic is really cool. Then I thought about: does the crew all just get thrown around when it spins in a circle? Why is it spinning in a circle before teleporting? What's with the trail of all the ships?

    That's how I look at color GI: first, it's super cool to put purple and blue everywhere. Then one day you think, what the fuck is this doing here? This doesn't make sense.

    OMG, I love these gifs. Now if only there was a LED warp lighting mod to add that to the ramps, rails, ball trough, shooter lane and legs of my machine...

    You can't make me give up the pics of my machine, none of you can...

    Quoted from isJ:

    Why is it spinning in a circle before teleporting?

    Yeah the Spore Drive is a tough one to figure out. The ship is actually 'moving' through the entire galaxy at that point so I think that all takes place without millions of a second.
