    I just saw that on Facebook. Dude was pleased with himself. Good for him, I guess.

    Was he drunk, high, or both? Possibly a bag of Cheetos nearby?

    Damn.. I mean, it's LOTR for crying out loud.. even in the movies, you wouldn't see any of those puked out colors..

    #5915 3 years ago

    he has to have that deer shining apron line in there because of color puking. only way he can still see anything.

    #5916 3 years ago

    I actually kinda don't mind that LOTR. That playfield is so damn ugly to begin with, can you really make it worse? Now it looks like current Sterns. LOL

    Agreed, not the best looking playfield ever, but man, now with that pink and green monster lighting, it's beyond that..!

    #5919 3 years ago

    Can't get the blotter man theme out of my head ...
    Oh the Humanatee

    #5920 3 years ago

    JFC, looked at that LOTR again and see that he replaced the playfield figures with... whatever the fuck those are. I... can't... even...

    My LOTR is crying right now.

    #5921 3 years ago

    I am not a big fan of color GIs but has anyone else noticed that they look way worse in pictures than they do in reality? I just brought home a new TZ that had quite a few mods and I didn't even notice the color until after I looked at the picture.

    Yeah, I'm not a fan of going crazy but if your selective and subtle they can look great in person. Pictures really exaggerate the effect, that Twilight Zone looks like a beauty

    Absolutely pics tend to concentrate some colors, but look at that previous 'saved' TZ, and you'll see that in some cases, too much IS too much.. and there's also color selection of the bulbs.

    #5924 3 years ago

    Yeah some of them go too far for sure. Maybe the phrase is "over-enthusiastic". The only saving grace is that they are just bulbs. I actually dislike more semi-permeant mods that replace original parts. Subtle mods are okay or in some cases where a part just doesn't look good as original (i.e. path of the dead in LotR) but classics like TZ should probably just be left alone IMHO.

    #5930 3 years ago

    I don't care for it, but I get putting multi colored led's in the GI. Plastering the back box with rainbow leds however really makes me scratch my head...

    #5931 3 years ago

    Once again more monies spent on the LEDs than the machine

    #5932 3 years ago

    You know the companies that make color DMDs and replacement LED numeric & alphanumeric displays? They should come out with special versions where every pixel or segment is a random color. I bet some folks who go hog-wild with the kooky cringe-worthy color GI jobs would snap 'em up like hotcakes.

    I can understand the thought process that goes into putting an LED that matches the color of a something on the translite.

    But WHY do so many people use PURPLE for human faces?! It's the most mind boggling trope when it comes to puked games.

    I know a pic was posted above but I thought I’d pull all the photos for this “Mousing Around” for full affect.
    [quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

    I did it for my kids. I really thought they were getting into pinball. I let my 6 year old and 3 year old pick them out and they had fun helping their dad. I was also going to put some rad cals on the sides once they came out. I get it’s not every bodies cup of tea and it’s not a great selling feature...but man, makes me feel crappy I’m just being made fun of.

    I have to say. The cabinet looks better than the playfield at this point.

    well, you are not going to get them into pinball, if they can't see when playing. It's never going to be fun for anyone. if they want to help with color LED's. have them put them behind the inserts. Then it doesn't effect gameplay.
