This thread is interesting. When I was in my late twenties and I got my first two pinball machines I was the clown-vomit King. I was overwhelmed by the idea of having LEDs in a pinball machine. I am now in my early forties and have un-clown-vomited all of my machines. I will say this... LED's most definitely have their place in pinball and in my opinion they are fantastic for playfield lamps, especially in situations where the inserts are faded. But for g.i. lighting colored LEDs (meaning not cool or warm white) they should be used sparingly, in certain areas only to touch up or accentuate certain features of the machines overall appearance. It seems like every machine on the market now has been taken to the extreme with colored LEDs and I understand exactly why this thread exists haha. Maybe it is just myself getting old and remembering how pinball machines used to look back when I was younger or maybe overuse of colored LEDs really and truly does looks like garbage clown vomit. I am going to assume the latter. Maybe I am wrong. This is just my opinion here so take it for what it is worth. No offense meant either way.

...to finish my gripe I will say I am a proud owner of pinbot. I CANNOT STAND the typical left half playfield so led bright blue your skin can tan from blue UV rays and right side so red it's a bloody murder scene. This pin has probably suffered the most clown vomit abuse of any title. I was guilty of this years ago but now my machine shines with mostly warm white led and a few red/ blue to spice it up just a bit in key areas. Looks better than it ever has.

Opinion... Are mirror blades an indirect extension of rainbow puke?

I do a lot of lurking here beacase this thread is hilarious but I don't post that often. I can't resist to comment on that dirty hairy though... WTF. That can't be real . The fact that 1) someone would ruin a dirty hairy with purple leds and 2) would actually *pay* to have their machine look like a unicorn shat all over it is just... Baffling

Survey! Is my Space Shuttle rainbow puke?

Things to keep in mind, my phone accentuates LED colors more than incandescent bulbs. I used Warm White LEDs as the primary GI lighting but use some color LEDs to accentuate certain areas and hide faded colors. So puke or no puke?

Not really. The ramp is solid opaque black plastic.

Holy bluepuke, Batman!

Came across this pic accidentally and nearly barfed on my phone.
