I find it interesting that 12 people voted that have chipping artwork and I saw maybe 3-4 pictures on all of pinside with chipping artwork. Find it hard to believe you can vote, surf, post, but don't have time to post a picture.

Quoted from Coolpinballdino:

I have been lucky so far my SE playfield seems fine so far.

Take a peek under the rubber washer, and report back!

Quoted from TheGunnett:

My LE started out fine, I had posted all sorts of pictures as I installed the black mirror blades.
My playfield chipped this weekend and the record dropped. I’m waiting to hear back before I lift the playfield to repair the record, I want to be careful not to scratch the blades and try to fix both issues at the same time.

Just curious, did you turn your flipper power up? if so, how much?

Quoted from Dantesmark:

I got rid of a gotg and harlem to fund this... starting to regret it.

I wouldn't worry too much. It's still the same 3 playfields I keep seeing over and over.

Quoted from Dantesmark:

Hi everyone! Im super stoked to get my game! JjP has done an amazing job creating a world under glass. However, i have lots of concern with the issues i have seen/ heard regarding playfield quality.
Im hoping to get a guage on how widespread these issues are by taking a poll from actual gnr owners that have the game in their posession.
Please do not participate in the poll if you dont have a game in your posession, and please be truthful in your response.
If you would like to elaborate on your experience, good or bad, regarding the GNR playfields...feel free to comment below.
Thanks so much for your input!

Hey Dantesmark. Great idea. I was going to start a new thread where people just post pictures of their playfield defects, but I don't want to beat a dead horse. I honestly think I've witnessed about 4 pictures of playfields that were defected. What I suggest, instead of my starting another thread on this, is maybe in your top original post, add pictures of the fields as they come in, just one per playfield, don't need 5 angles of the same playfield. What do you think? You just keep editing your original comment and ad pictures as they come in. If you're not up for it, I will just start a thread doing just that.

Quoted from Sako-TRG:

German manufacturing is well built and has a reputation for quality.

I agree, they do have a reputation for quality, that's why my first car was german. But I learned from experience, 3 BMWs later, that all of them were complete junk, never going to purchase a BMW again. All of them had design flaws that caused mechanical problems. 2 of them blown engines.

So 90 people out of the 100 or so GnR machines that are out in the wild, partook in this poll....INTERESTING!

#142 3 years ago
Quoted from Dantesmark:

Theres way more than 100 machines out there.

100 LEs from launch and they just started shipping SE's last week, so lets say 150...Wouldn't say "WAY MORE". Also according to Pinside ownership data, it states 122 people have LE's and SE's in their collection...I don't know how much I trust that number, because it also says 55 people have a CE in their collection. So I highly doubt 90 people own this machine and took part in the poll. Even so, 40 of them have issues, but yet only see like 5 machine or maybe 6 at this point with pictures.

Instead of demanding better playfields....we should just cover the WHOLE playfield with plexiglass, no more pooling and we can remove everything and then put it back on, because its a fun project to do after you spent 10K+ on a machine. Forget playing it!
