Quoted from centerflank:Encom Nation has begun!
Hehe, I'm loving this mod, it looks really good
This might be a stupid question, but does anyone know what it would take to hook up an external sub along with the flipper fidelity sub in the cabinet?

Yeah, It reflects awesome off the glass just like in the boardroom pic!
I just piggyback off the lugs of the cabinet sub (I zip tie them to existing speaker wires and the solder the wire at the lug)
Is the fidelity different? I have all stock speakers in everything.
Yeah, the reflection is awesome, I think that's the best part
Sounds like that setup might probably work, the flipper fidelity sub is not that different...
You can see the connectors in the bottom pic.
I'll have to research it more, it would definitely be nice to add more low end to this machine.
Quoted from TomGWI:Ok. Who are the 22 guys who voted they have small dingy?
Not I....I voted Flank super smart
thanks dude.... i'm kinda on the fence with the ramp deals... but for now they are staying!
minor adjustments you say??
Quoted from Keebler:Right on, I'm glad you got a set I'm getting some minor adjustments made to mine to make them right for my machine, but overall I love them.

I'm getting them remade with different material to better match my machine, they are too different from the pinbits plastics directly below them. The new ones should match perfect

Can you pass on the love and get him to make more that match the pin bits protectors? I will buy another set for sure!
Quoted from QuarterGrabber:Can you pass on the love and get him to make more that match the pin bits protectors? I will buy another set for sure!
I can definitely let him know there is interest in these altered versions. I had to track down the matching material and send it to him, which was only enough for a few plastics. Maybe if the demand is there he might make another run with similar material, I don't know.

Cool, thanks for the effort. If he does make more I'm sure centerflank will be in for one.

No problem Yeah centerflank might want to try them again, the material I found looked almost identical to the pinbits yellow, which looks great with the orange LEDs I have. I compared the material with the pinbits plastic still on the machine though, so you never know, but it's really close even if it's not exact.
I talked to him btw, he is totally willing to make these altered versions if people would like him to. I will let him know where I got the material. Brian is an awesome guy to deal with.

Awesome. You da man. Just under centerflank of course. (I don't have a small dingy)

Hehe, that's fine, I can live with that
Well, I just ordered the light up tron discs for the speakers and a set for Hulk...I also want to add a shaker to my LOTR finally. Just need to grab some EL paper for those hinges I have and thats it for a while.
Running out of play $, gonna have to skip the plastics unfortunately. Gotta start saving for my next pin too! Ill give you a hint what Im thinking.....

Yeah, I'm in the same boat, I'm just about done with Tron. Not by choice, but for the simple fact that I've run out of things to do to it. I installed my mirrors today, next is powder coating, another custom shooter rod (being made), and then Eli's mod. I'll be saving up for another pin here shortly too. I'm leaning toward X-Men, I love that machine! I've never played SM, I might have to try that and IM before I decide.

All 3 are great choices, I had IM and loved it but now that Xmen code is near completion Im pretty happy I did that trade.
I would like to add black mirror blades on TRON, I also have those LOTRcabinet decals coming, cant wait to see those installed.
Right on, yeah I just recently got into X-Men, I played it several times before and didn't like it.
I had the blue mirror blades pre-ordered for Tron, but after 2 months of waiting I cancelled and got the regular ones.
Those cabinet decals are sweet!
Quoted from retired_user_101:directors cut
That is OUTSTANDING my friend! HAHA! I have to enlarge that and get one framed for my pin cave LOL!
Quoted from Riffbear:Hey Brett,
Measurements sent for EDOT!
gracias from the great tejas outback to the real outback.

Welcome Brett!
Time for some Tron Le.
Quoted from centerflank:Well well, guess who just slinked down to the cave to love some TRON!
Quoted from centerflank:I would like to add black mirror blades on TRON
Would like to see that...sounds bad ace
Just made a trade for a TRON for AC/DC Premium. Should be arriving sometime this month
AC/DC Premium is a great great game, but I did my work of a billion on it, and I was slapping the lock bar too many times with silly left/right drains. It kept making me think back to the silk like flow and smooth shots through the pops and left flipper shots on Tron lol. Two totally different pins is all. He's happy, I'm happy, should be good.
Great thread, good reads and some stupid nice machines in here (all white? crazy good looking)
I guess the one I'm getting is from the 2012 run, clu translight, has the light cycles and the arcade mode 2.? something? I'm assuming decals as well (my first run from before didn't have the decals)
Quoted from bangerjay:Not Rebecca?
Yeah, but I wish it had been PattyJ

Awesome, so this is your 2nd go around, I cant imagine my collection ever being void of this beauty.
Yes, second one. I friggin' loved this game when I had it, and really could not find any faults with it besides the lack of extra ball (this was before new code!) Long story short, it shouldn't have left the way it did but the offer/trade was too good to pass up at that time.
Funny thing is, the first time I played this game was at Pinwiz arcade in NH, and a newish one at a Disney resort, my first impressions left me feeling eh about it. Then I kept going back to it on that trip and trying to figure out what the hell did what. After I finally left, I kept thinking about how those shots felt and strung together, along with the great music. I couldn't get it out of my mind- I had to find/have one.
I really blasted some good scores with lacking code on my last Tron, i'm definitely looking forward to the new code with both extra ball at ramp and re-activate disk multiball

I hate to say it, but playing any pin on route usually leaves me with a shitty feeling in my stomach. The movie theatre by me has a MB, we saw Pacific Rim a week ago and I didnt have any quarters so we saw Wolverine yesterday and I was so pumped to play it. Left flipper would stick up and completely ruined my enthusiasm.
Would love to get up to LTG's place someday as Im sure his pins are all nice&smooth.
LOL! Is that the guy that used to perform at the skatepark?
edit-Im running down to Chinatown to grab some 3penis wine, anyone need any?
Quoted from centerflank:I love TRON just a little more today.
Yeah, I was really happy with the speaker lights and inserts too, they look great.
