    Who needs playfield artwork when you obliterate it with blue and purple LED's?

    that's a game that could benefit from being bleached out with colorshit.

    Had this little beauty come into my shop for some minor repairs on Friday. Can't work out how to tell my customer that he is a colour blind fuckwit without offending him!

    If he’s a pinsider you might not have to worry about how to tell him anymore. Job done!
    That is pretty horrendous nuke puke job I must say.

    I think I already posted that Demo Man's twin brother. I do like how it looks like they have one white bulb behind Sandra Bullock's face, almost like she has a Phantom of the Opera mask on or something. It's amazing the things people pay big $$$ to do to games.

    Oddly, it probably would be an improvement. Just not much of one.

    Quoted from PinballManiac40:

    Someone just picked up a Tron. I think someone went a little too blue.

    Haven't visited this thread in a while, and lo and behold I see my new TRON has made the pages. A couple of comments to some other replies:

    - The Orange armor is an acquired taste, and looks better in person. That being said, I'd rather have the blue version, and have posted in the TRON thread to see if someone wants to swap, as I'd rather not pay the $500+ to get it repowdercoated. Don't know if I want to spend that kind of money on a color change......but yeah, I wish it was blue......

    - All the lighting changes and mods were done by previous owners. The bottom 2/3s of the playfield GI is Cool White, the upper 1/3 GI is Blue. The LEDs on the playfield backboard above the lightcycles go from Cool White, to Blue, to Orange.

    - The first pics posted were taken with my iPhone 6s, and as others have noted smartphone cameras can exaggerate the LED colors, especially the blue & purple spectrum. That is the case here as well. I just now went downstairs and took a pic with my Nikon D7100. The room lighting is the same, no post processing, Program Mode, handheld so excuse the lack of sharpness, didn't want to break out the tripod. The only change in the lighting of the TRON is that I replaced a broken frosted cool white LED under the ZEN plastic, which I was also swapped out from the orange ZEN plastic to the blue version. Besides that nothing has changed. To the eye the D7100 picture is closer to real life than the original iPhone pic. Is it perfect?? No, I'm still going to tweak it some in the future.....

    Quoted from AUKraut:

    - The Orange armor is an acquired taste, and looks better in person.

    The thread is about the problems of colored lighting only, not mods. I personally don't mind the armor.

    Quoted from AUKraut:

    , the upper 1/3 GI is Blue.

    I never understood the "upper 1/3" Playfield puking that some people do to their games. What's the point?...just make it white.

    Quoted from AUKraut:

    cameras can exaggerate the LED colors,

    No doubt.

    I realize that....someone else in the thread had previously commented on the Orange, so I was replying to them.

    60 pages of people hating on pinball color choices. If you think your Tron looks good to you then that is all that matters. There will always be people who will try to put others down to make themselves look good. Human beings are cruel in that way. I am just happy that I can be a part of this pinball community. Take it for what it’s worth.

    We're putting down Xmas tree lights in pinball machines here. Noone in particular. Don't take it so personally.

    And if it makes us laugh so hard it brings tears to our eyes, of course it makes us feel better. Don't give a shit how it makes us look. lol
