I'm still waiting for my Rick and Morty. Next month I think the wait is over and the Pin will arrive.... after 1,5 years of endless waiting.
My Alien SV order is from last week. And it feels much longer than the wait for the Rick and Morty. 
Quoted from Dee-Bow:Can you type that again using less of a german accent. You're offending the snowflakes
I swear half these peeps don't even know who Andrew is.
Finally I'm in this club.
Got my Alien SV yesterday and except of some minor sound issues, everything is working perfect out of the box.
Some coil adjustments, that was it.
Installed some mods, including Vimtomans great Motion Tracker.
Couldn't be happier.

Quoted from RussG:Happy for you Slapfighter!
Is that Bishop or Ash ripped in half? I think Ash but looks more like Bishop's face.
Also, how's the motion tracker working?

Thank you.
The MT is working perfectly and goes to the Scanmode, if a ball is in the shooterlane and ready for launch.
And it's Bishop.
Love how you guys are all modding your Aliens.
Your pins looking so great.
Here, what I did with my PB Alien.......

You know i gotta ask about that Hypersleep chamber mod... where did you get or did you print? I want one, i want to light it up!
Got it from Mageek, great guy
Quoted from Mageek:Mine is 25% stronger coil strength and works great , at 30% it drops the ball sometimes
Are you running 2.7 ?
Quoted from mbrave77:So i have to unscrew the fuses with a screwdriver right? Just making sure!
Yes, one turn is enough
Quoted from paulbaptiste:On 2.8 my game is freezing if left unattended for any span of time, with or without a game running. I had a game going last night, walked away for 20 minutes and couldn't plunge the ball, had to reset. This has happened several times.
Same things happend to me and sometimes both right Flippers don't work, since I updated to 2.8
Never happened on 2.4, 2.6 or 2.7
Quoted from Utesichiban:Is it possible to go back to earlier versions?
Made two games today without issues, so I will make some more games and see.
If it happens again I will go back to 2.7
Quoted from Mageek:Has anyone had issues on v2.8 in single player mode? I played at least 30 games with no issues on single but had people over playing last night on multiplayer had flippers freeze until it reset and had the ball stuck in the mother saucer until it eventually reset. These problems happened several times, so went back to v2.7 and everything is fine.
See my post #9374
....yesterday sometimes both 2 right Flippers stop working for a few seconds or game freezes or launch button didn't work.
These issues happened on some games on 2.8
Never happened on 2.4, 2.6 or 2.7
Today I played some games without any issues on 2.8
Not sure, if I should go back to 2.7
Never had any issue on 2.7
Quoted from Deadpin:Everything running fine. Install 2.8, now ball launches fail 2/3rds of the time (underpowered?), then work on the second try. Just the first thing I’ve noticed. Does not occur on saves or multiball. Anyone else see this?
Here, me too, same problems on my SV
Quoted from Deez:How do you go back?
Only plug USB stick with upd file version 2.7 in.
It overwrites 2.8 and you are back on 2.7
Quoted from Baggerman:Yeah.. i cannot locate 2.7 locally and Pbros does not have "historical codes" to pull from. Anyone have it on a google drive?
Send PB a message/ticket and they will send you the older upd file
Did the same today and Andrea sent me 2.7
....or send a message to Zablon
For me going back to 2.7 was the solution, everything is working fine again.
......only sometimes there is the black screen issue on powering on the machine. But for now I can live with that.
Absolutely everything else is working fine again on 2.7 
Quoted from brado426:PB tells me they are working on that ball launch issue. It doesn't bother me that much... in fact, I wasn't even going to report it until I saw that you were having the same problem.... then I reported it.
I had more issues than that on 2.8
Right Flippers didn't work sometimes
Game freezes
Through kickout doesn't work several times
Ball launch button doesn't work sometimes
That was too much for me, 2.7 fixed all those problems on my SV
Had all these problems on 2.8, not on all games but on some, now on 2.7 all is ok.
Checked flipper button switches and tried different coil strength. Nothing worked.
Now back on 2.7 and everything is fine again.
Don't know why, reported this problems to PB
By the way....never had any problems with the magnet grab on 2.4, 2.6, 2.7 or 2.8
Quoted from Pinkitten:Working on a deal for an LV. This game looks amazing and the theme is ideal for pinball. Just a little concerned. I have Halloween and TNA, and am dealing with some typical issues with those, although I really enjoy both games. Am I asking for trouble with Alien, or totally worth the hiccups? It sounds like PB are standing behind their game. That’s encouraging.
What I can say about those smaller pinball manufactorers like PB, American Pinball or Dutch Pinball is, that their customer service is lightyears above the big players like JJP or Stern.
Because of my own experiences.
I own Sterns, JJPs, TBL, Alien, R&M, etc.
JJP has the worst customer service!
PB, Dutch and AP the best......
So, no worries about PB customer service! They stand 100% behind their products.....
Quoted from brooklynknight:I am having trouble deciding if I should pull the trigger on pinstadiums for this pin. I get it is supposed to be a dark theme however I love a solid lightshow. Anyone try them on their alien and hate them?
Have pinstadiums installed on my SV and love them.
Many options in lighting intensity etc.
Very cool is the UV flasher lighting effect in combination with the Xeno magnet.
