    Thanks TA, now I really miss my BF. Son of a bitch, why did I sell it.

    Looks like a damn nice example of Stellar Wars regardless. Other than the coin door bulb being out. Damn incans!!!

    Here's my first Wipeout from a few years back. Tried color puking just because I thought it would look good. But then I swapped back in the white LEDs.

    irobot & Pinfactory2000 either get a room and puke out a lovechild or take it to PM. You two are nauseating.

    Quoted from Taxman:

    I played a TZ with those pop rings installed. It was even worse in person than that picture. Very piercing and distracting.

    I have them in three of my games. The light rings have a screw on them that you can turn down the brightness. Also one for the flashing. I have them color matched, turned down to 50%. It's nice with the warm white leds on the bottom. It adds some light to the dark part of TFTC.

    I made another DIY "Pinstadium" kit for Baywatch tonight. I just needed white LED lighting to evenly illuminate the playfield. So these lights do not flash with the GI, they are simply lighting the PF so you can see the artwork and track the ball. Same kit I made for Big Hurt, which like Baywatch is sorely lacking in lighting.

    I had to hardwire 12v for Big Hurt since there wasn't a service outlet. But this kit I want to be able to move to any other game by powering it from the service outlet. I have lots of spare power supplies saved and fished out two 12v wall warts that had the proper size tips.

    I also had a strip of PVC angle and used it even thought it was 3/4" wide, no big deal, but 1/2" is plenty wide.

    Awesome! Huge difference. Do you mind PM'ing me a list of materials you use for that?

    For sure. Clown puke is taking over pinball.

    The vendors all sell puke kits. They don't sell "light your game with original looking white LEDs" kits.

    Eventually they're going to stop making incandescent bulbs and the newbies will think all pinball games are supposed to glow with laser purple color.

    #1673 6 years ago

    Big Hurt using the same setup. The bottom "before" pic also shows the two spotlights I added over each sling to help give some lighting to the middle of this super dark playfield. I need to remove them now since they aren't needed anymore.

    This game was so nice before I added these puke bulbs. Sorry I screwed it up guys. I should have stayed with the incandescent bulbs.

    I think that looks great. Like the powder coating and speaker lights too.

    #1678 6 years ago

    I'm using my own photos, but it would be easy to find the worst incandescent bulb pinball machines pics and post them. It's an easy game.

    Barf. White GI LEDs are fine. It’s the pink / purple hue that your LED job put all over the artwork. The Simpsons colors are almost unrecognizable

    I have a big box of incandescent bulbs I can send you. Some are pre-blown. We can rebuild together. I think I have some old warped plastics too, that way no one will know what we did.

    Nobody is upset, we just think your purple game looks like ass. Which is what the thread is about.

    I know that idea is hard to understand, but keep trying.

    You could use white LEDs in your games. Then they wouldn't be purple.

    Think you can follow that, killer?

    Come on, i’m getting on an EasyJet plane right now, with electric blue and purple lights inside and I said loud voice “that’s clown puuuuuuuke”. Will someone understand?? Now I close my eyes, these lights do hurt a lot my retinas.

    He is a troll who came here to act like a child. Maybe still drunk. He really does have that bad of taste and is insulted that pouring money and time into puke does not buy friendship from everyone.

    Report as a troll or announcing his leaving. He's not one of the fun ones.

    Those really are awful looking. I am surprised there are not dozens of toys bolted over key shots.

    #1699 6 years ago

    Man oh man. Watching clown pukers trigger you guys is hilarious but cmon! Less bitchin and more clickin! This is a pic thread!

    Check out this disaster I found!!! Find a safe space quickly!!!

    Quoted from Mitch:

    Back to attacking people instead of their games I suppose? And it would be "you're happy." If you're going to make condescending remarks, at least use correct grammar.

    I just don't get the need to attack people by some in this thread. Saying a game doesn't look good in your opinion is one thing. This is a relatively small hobby, and I would like to see it survive. If you have any kind of pinball game in your house, you're ok in my book. Even if I don't like your bulbs.
