ROAD SHOW CLUB (Hard hats required on site)

"Lets wreck some roads"

I was really surprised when I was unable to find a RS club, so I created my own.
Requirement to join the club? Simple get yourself Road Show if you don't already own it.

Here's my machine.

EDIT:
Thanks to www.pinball-led.co.uk
My RS looks like this now:

What my RS looked like before the led conversion:

I'll never be a makeup artist but I think Red looks a little sexier with some eyeshadow.

And feel free to post anything Road Show related in this thread.

Hey WebDiddy - thanks for starting this up. Unfortunately I am about to sell my Roadshow to make way for a Star Trek Pro. It is a great machine but does not get used much by the pinballers in my house. good luck - Harvey

The dozer decals can be found on ebay among others, I made mine by myself though.
Have fun with Star Trek Pro!

I'm in. Love this game so much. Super underrated because of the theme and the music, but that makes it affordable and in my price range. Top 5 in game play for me. So much to do, great layout, shaker motor, widebody, not 1 but 2 animatronic heads!

Here's a great tip, if you need to fix anything in one of the heads you don't really need to remove the head completely from the playfield. Just remove the hard hat, face and back of the head and with the help from some good lighting you'll be able to fix most of the stuff from there.

Also, love the eye stickers. I'd be in for those at a reasonable cost as being discussed.
Love your painted radio. I need to do mine. Looks too plain.

LOL, I would love to see the insurance on that one! But I don't have time to send them out to everybody. Hell I bet that once I have them they sit in my machine for no less then a year before I get around to installing them.

Queston,

Is the left ramp supposed to be lit like the right ramp is? Mine isn't lit, not sure if that is by design or if the lamp under the ramp is out.

Okay, checked the shipping for the eyes stickers, $10 US bucks for 1 pair for Red and one pair for Ted shipped in a regular envelope with stamps. Shipping time should be around a week according to my post office but in my experience it's usually a little longer.

Anyone who's interested please PM me, note these also fit Rudy in Funhouse.

Loving this pin, so much going on!

You can find these for 2200 to 2500 depending on condition. Cabs are usually faded and fish wear or lack thereof usually tells the story with this pin.

just be aware that one that is in great condition IE little to no fade on cabinet, no wear on play field (very common for there to be wear next to the fish)and has been well maintained can go for higher then 2500. Average is usually between 2500 to 3000. However as iceman44 said you can find them as low as 2000 to 2200. under 2000 it has probably been beat to hell.

Prices appear to have gone up a lot for this pin in the last two years, perhaps more than others. Those prices are speculative though, not sure what they are actually selling for...

I joined the club a year ago and cannot imagine a scenario in which leave the club. I love it.

I have a page in a pixar art book that's filled with just eyes that they used. That might make a nice source of replacement eye stickers if people want to make their own.

Just ordered the Cliffy's and newest ROMs. Big thank you goes out to Rob/Gwaxt in NY for hooking me up. Such a good dude and honest seller. Here are a few pics.image-783.jpgimage.jpgimage-818.jpg

Its a color DMD in sigma. Pricy but hopefully they will do Roadshow in full color eventually. This game as really good animations and lots of them. so I think it would be a great color DMD choice.

If they released a ColorDMD for roadshow I'd have to buy one without a doubt. I can't see putting one in just for Sigma. I guess I could change my tune if my DMD were dead...
