This game was meant for LED's! and I am addicted to them. Makes the whole PIN look so much nicer and even enhances the playing of it.

I can now actually see what the game is guiding me to do next!

They really POP out and has made it a whole new experience.

Does anyone have a TRON that looks like this and if so >>

Is it normal for the metal to protrude from the bottom of the ball launch pad guide onto the play field?

Has anyone noticed it making a difference in how the ball reacts when it travels up?

Has anyone pulled it back from the play field to see if there is a difference?

Why does he ask?? Mine was like that NIB. A few weeks ago I moved it so it is no longer on the play field. Recently (it may just be me or a bad coil) it seems like when the ball (s) get auto launched, about 20 percent of them never make it around the loop and they actually seem to be hitting the divider from the inner and outer ramps and come down towards the plungers.

If I manually launch the ball, there is no issue.

Quoted from QuarterGrabber:

Yes mine looks like that. I rolled the ball along the wall to see if it would hit that metal piece and it doesn't. So all is good. Plus if you LED the shit out of your Tron you won't even notice that piece of metal

LMAO! Sounds good then...

Thanks

Quoted from nicoga3000:

I'm going to ask a question here because it feels like the best place to ask it:
Does Tron Pro feel like a gimped game compared to the LE? And are all these super modded machines the Pro table or the LE table?? They look gorgeous and I'm considering investing on a Pro if all goes according to plan!

I don't own a LE, but I DO own the PRO and LOVE THE GAME!

From what I have seen over the last few months of buying my TRON, most of the modded machines you are seeing is a mix of both LE and PRO machines.

You can start by telling the difference by looking at images of the LE = Fiber optic lighting under plastic ramps + Moving Recognizer + Drop TRON Targets

The FIBER kit is offered as a MOD for the PRO, so it can get a little confusing at 1st but you will start to be able to tell the difference.

BUT probably the BIGGEST way you can tell the difference between a LE and a PRO > Next to impossible to buy a LE model!

So that basically says that only 400 of "us" have the LE, and the rest have a PRO. Not gimpy at all

well, that just happened

Solution for you to try. You can use just one rubber or two... Whatever works for you!
It hasn't happened to me since I put those on

Try putting them on a few of the other black post located on the play field and "no more pinball dribble"

Quoted from jk2171:

Just installed the new Tron arcade mod on my Pro. Along with my speaker light kit, cointaker flipper led buttons, and orange armor/trim I'm loving the game. First machine I've really modded out. Just need the Pinbits ramp wire and I'll be a happy man.

Orange Armor Trim?

Tell me more....

Quoted from jk2171:

These are not pics of my machine, but the armor I have is exactly the same as the one on this thread:
http://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/tron-le-custom-trim-and-mods
Was a run by Terry at Pinball Life. I bought it second-hand from a local guy here in Chicago who was looking to change from the orange to chrome. Worked out for both of us as I love the orange!

Is anyone still making these?
Are those stickers or cut-outs?
