Quoted from ImNotNorm:

Twilight zone
[quoted image]

Hard to count ball traps created by owners sticking crap on their games that does not belong there.

Quoted from ImNotNorm:

From the picture...what's added and not factory? Just curious now...

in just that pic of a small part of the playfield...
1. robot ball trap on every machine it was ever installed on.
2. spiral sign
3. spiral behind the spiral sign
4. lamp over mini PF (replacing stock one though)
5. gumballs in machine
6. side art
7. backwall art
8. space ship
9. skull next to spaceship, assuming its on the plastic and not from the backboard image, can't tell for sure
10.target stickers
11. cannon next to spaceship, same caveat as #9 though
12. pyramid on right
13. plasma disk on right
14. powder coated wireform (2)
15. possibly gumball machine lighting

not all of these affect gameplay, but this is maybe 1/6 of the playfield and there are at lease 13 non standard items, probably 16 that are listed. And I might have missed something.

I'd bet there is a rocket down low, a slot machine, a coin on edge, a lamp in the pops, a car in the pops, a light up camera on the front of the mini pf. with all teh crap added to this particular game I'm surprised that the owner does not have the clock mod on the clock millions target.

Oh I had the car, but you have it in an unusual place, got the slot machine too, how could I forget the ubiquitous lit scoop?? doh. I didn't even bother listing the piano, you almost never see a TZ w/o it.
I'm not ripping you for having the stuff, it's your game enjoy it. Just that someone asked whats not stock (flipper buttons), so I answered.

Quoted from Meegis:

You forgot the extra spiral magnet

neither were in the original image. I saw the switches in the later image. I also left out the bad lighting, including the strips under the plunger lanes divider Not everything done is terrible, but the ball trap stuff is just stupid to me, robot, car, things like that. the piano, usually, is well done, the powerfield switches are nice, new switches and less blocking the view of the ball. Pyramid, plasma disk, UFO, pointelss clutter in my view. powder coated wireforms, yuk. But like I said, not my money. If I was given that game most of that stuff would be stripped before I ever even got around to turning it on.

Quoted from Meegis:

You can just make out the spiral in the original..

You can't even see the right orbit where that's located in the pic.

#612 5 years ago
Quoted from Meegis:

The added spiral is above the camera Lane. Factory was only one and it was above the right flipper

production has 1 magnet above the shooter lane, and one magnet above the left upper flipper. the third one was removed and was in the right orbit, it would catch a ball from the shooter lane and one on that side would catch a ball from the lock kick-out on that side.
