What’s everyone’s preferred setting for the 100k roaming shot after all stars are collected?

I have my game set to award 100k as many times as you can hit the shot.

Quoted from spandol:

I love my Stars and don’t know why there is so much hype on QS. Maybe I don’t know the game well but when I play it at league, it doesn’t strike me as one of the top classic Sterns. Just my opinion though![quoted image]

Beautiful Stars!

Quoted from dtrimberger:

Breaking down the play field and have a couple early questions.
The plastic spacers under the upper arch. Gray or white? I have one of each
Also there’s some random bare wire(?) posts. One at the R out lane corner. One looks like it should be at the L outline corner. And 2 at the L sling, near the leaf switches. Any idea if these are supposed to be there or what there purpose is?[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

I’m not sure what the metal nails are in the corners and by the slings, but they are on my game.
I have all white spacers and posts.

Quoted from desertT1:

Can you post a pic of the originals and the hooded ones? I’m quite certain I have reproductions, and they brick, but also am not quite sure what originals look like.

Look at post 232 with the alternate Stars playfield art. There are 5 original targets, they have the stars on them and look like a tombstone. The 3rd target in is a reproduction target with a flat ridge on the top.

Quoted from rue_:I started working it a little with Naptha and it's coming clean. Ordered a new rectifier board kit/Connectors/pins from PBL (I could rebuild the original but not cost effective)
I ordered a repro backglass, new balls, rubber kit, spinner decals, start decal.
Still looking for new chrome legs but haven't had any luck so far.
Plan to paint the backbox trim blue again and maybe pull the MCU and reflow the molex pins, try to bulletproof it.
Pretty happy I bought it for $500 and it's a working game already. Just needs to help

The legs for classic sterns haven’t been reproduced to my knowledge. They are a flat grey color. Most people that have needed new legs just buy chrome ones in the same length.
