Went looking for my first RBION and managed to find this one. Bought it from the original owners daughter, who’s mom got it brand new for the home game room. It was a little dirty but when I wiped the dirt away with some novus 1, it was perfect underneath Put in LEDs, ledocd board, ColorDMD, and working on clear rubbers all around. Really dig this game, glad I went looking for one. The penguins are awesome

The speaker panel looks nice and I’d be in for one. I think it would look better matching the back glass as it would be right next to it and visible from the same angle, yeah?

Just shopped mine out and indeed some of the listed sizes were waaay tighter than the others.

Are you peeps running the latest code? Mine has 2.04 but I’m planning on upgrading the chips to the 3.2 code on Sterns website as soon as I can.

Is the machine level? Should go straight down to the left flipper and dead bounce somewhat reliably to the right flipper. Check the level, and past that maybe the angle of the solenoid on the kickout?

That looks fantastic!

Can’t go wrong with an IMDN. Iron Maiden’s multiballs are nice and fast, Ripley’s fees more strategic with the ramps and then the super jackpot shot. Go for it

Awesome man! With that many Ripley’s on location, I wonder which one had the highest high score

Grats on getting a Ripley’s again. I love the theme, totally remember the show on TV as a little kid. It was pretty much the weird side of YouTube before we had YouTube lol

I actually like the purple accents! Have a Pinballbulbs kit to put in and I think it’s the same way. It is begging for a ColorDMD!

You got it! Finally learned my lesson and started pulling them back out if I ever sell a game (except on Tron). Much easier to sell without trying to recoup that cost, and you know you’re going to want to put it in the next game that will take it anyway!

Also when it comes to must-have mods, I know it’s expensive, but the temple upgrades that back alley creations made look fantastic in Ripleys.
