Loving all the club action recently.

I picked one up a couple years ago at Pinfest. Replaced the gi and displays with leds and have been chasing that 100k shot since.

All LED'd and looking good!

I replaced the GI incandescents as soon as I got it, but had held off on the playfield lights because I thought they would flicker. A couple weeks ago I was about to buy some lights and figured I would test a light on Stars to see what happened with a spare bulb I had. I put in the light, turn it on and it looks good. No flicker. Cool beans, guess I'll order the rest. They get here last weekend, I spend a couple hours replacing all the bulbs, and naturally doing some solder work to fix the couple light brackets I broke along the way. Turn it on. Flicker city! The only bulb not flickering was the one I tested. Figures. Almost immediately ordered the daughter boards Comet sells. They just got here. After a super easy install my Stars is looking nice. Time to get some games in. Stars w/ Commet LEDsStars w/ Commet LEDs

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]

It's got a sexy alien lady. Pin heads love sexy alien ladies.

Has there always been an alternate playfield or is this original? I've never seen that before. Looks cool. Would like to see one in person.
