I am a very proud new owner of a great huo heavily modded Tron. I’ll post pics later in the week! So, the cliffy sets come with 3 protectors, my Tron has cliffys on the ramps except for the left ramp on the far left. Does anybody know if this kit has one of the cliffys to protect that far left ramp side?

I had a creature done in all dark purple, I had to pay a bit more, but having the coin door done too really set the machine off! You don’t see too many Trons with the door done too!
I finally pulled the trigger last week on a beautiful modded huo Tron pro! I’ve been wanting one for several years and finally made it happen! Here’s the list of mods, blue led back strip, plastic protectors, Tron figures, full leds, Eli ramp mod, lighted Flynn sign, arcade mod, lighted light cycles, lighted recognizer, flipper fidelity speakers and sub, 3D translite, mirror blades, shaker motor, and one of my favorites the led auto dimming back box! The only mod I feel like my game still needs is a color dmd. Here’s some pics!

Have you seen the original? It’s not great.
I have, I wouldn’t install it in my game, I’d just like to have an original!
Quoted from smoothbore19:new addition the arcade
[quoted image]
Looks great!
Quoted from Spyk:No dice. Still very dark. Same button. Anyone know where to get lighter blue or at least how to make the inserts shine through better. I would settle for that
[quoted image]
Have you tried using a super brite led behind the insert?
Not sure if the ones behind it are or aren't. I would guess they are seeing as how the ones that came with the new coin door were super dim in comparison (I made sure to swap them) but I may buy some here just to experiment.
I picked up a SST a a while back from another pinsider and the pop bumpers had these comet leds in them. They were absolutely blinding, I swapped them out and used them in the coin door and they shine pretty bright.

Quoted from Spyk:Ok guys new lights are in and all the chrome pieces installed. Thanks everyone for your help. Now just a colored dmd, redo the tubes, maybe a couple external lighting ideas.
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
All chrome armor looks fantastic! Nice attention to detail having the coin door chromed as well!

Quoted from Durzel:I've recently acquired one of DKpinballs Flynn signs, but it didn't come with any instructions to fit it. Does anyone have a copy of them? Thanks.
I bought my game modded, I’m assuming your talking about the lit Flynn sign next to the Flynn scoop. I don’t have instructions, but I’ll pop the hood on my game this evening and post pics that show how it’s wired.
Mine is wired through to the right side into the board along with several of the other mods in the bottom cabinet. I’m not sure whether this little board is factory or not. Someone feel free to chime in if they know more about this set up. I hope the pics help.

Quoted from DystopicPinball:My Tron's PRO pinball arrived with a missing Tron mini arcade cabinet
Then i planned to make a new one by myself but... why a cabinet when that hole is named "FLYNN'S ARCADE"?
So i decided to make the FLYNN'S Arcade building instead of the classic Tron cabinet
Build lights connected to the FLYNN'S Arcade insert .
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
Really cool model, a larger version would make for a pretty cool topper!

Quoted from DystopicPinball:Video show the FLYNN'S ARCADE and not the TRON ARCADE
But also you are 100% right that an arcade machine is needed on this pinball, so i made another mod
Here some pictures.
Meanwhile added some toys with led on the playfield and made custom scorecards... still work in progress...
Next update will be EL ramp kit and light cycles
thanks[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
I really like what you’ve done with the presentation of the Tron arcade machine. The flooring with the signage on the right side of the machine, with encom visible from the mirror blade! Very cool! Any chance you’ll make a few to sell? Already have the arcade, the floor and wall really set it off!!!

Quoted from Lemank:Does anyone know where I can buy a right ramp or have one in better shape than this one? I just bought Tron and I am looooving it. I was wondering why I was getting so many air balls. Upon further inspection it looks like the right ramp is blown apart on both sides. I don’t even have the ramp pieces to piece mill something together.
[quoted image][quoted image]
A set of cliffys May cover the damage. You may have to figure out a way to get the left side to stay.
Quoted from athenspin:What’s the going rate for Tron ramps atm?
If you can find them.
Quoted from koops:but ... literally two quotes above.
I'm sure if you offered silly money you could make Snaroff happy.
If someone offered me silly $$$ I could possibly as well.

I planned to hold this forever for the right offer I could be moved.

Quoted from Saltimbanco:..or you could see if there's a way to replicate the vaccum forming mold from your NOS ramps, increase in some cases the slotted holes and tolerances when replicating those ramps, and make a lot of brothers happy by selling them tons of new sets at a fair price!
There's definitely a market for this, as most ramps I've seen on games show either some missing corners or stress crackling around the holes..
That’s beyond my skill set and a bigger project than I can take on. If someone else wants to run with it I’m all ears.
Quoted from Chosen_S:Freeplay40
athenspin
Freeplay40 could you guys maybe work together to get some new Tron ramps made?
I messaged freeplay about possibly reproducing the ramp and offered to provide mine for the mold. I guess we wait and see what he says.
Quoted from Saltimbanco:athenspin
Thanks for considering having someone try to reproduce this man, you're a true Tron lover!
Hopefully we can get it done!

Quoted from Saltimbanco:As much as I'd like to see a Tron VE and would line up to buy it, I don't think it's ever going to happen. Unless Disney ever does a Tron 3, even then.. but, yeah, would look great next to Tron Pro!
If stern did a Ve and added an lcd screen and new artwork, I’d have to buy and set it next to my pro!

Quoted from shaunpurslow:I put some orange plasma pop bumpers in mine because I couldn't find any good covers for the stock ones and the LEDs were god awful. I would definitely be willing to buy a pair of your custom tops just to switch things up a little from time to time.
[quoted image]
The orange plasmas look great! Would you be willing to share where you got them?

Quoted from Lemank:This guy is going to make wire forms for the ramps instead of plastic ones. It will hopefully be a nice option.

Wire forms would be fast as shit!!!!

Quoted from TheGunnett:Finished the topper to match the neon. A Hot Toys light cycle with el wires in the back and a programmable LED strip underneath.

Now that is freakin cool!
