Quoted from accidental:Pretty cool! Does it impact your ability to shoot the lock? It's a narrow entry that visually would look a lot narrower.
Not at all as I used some PCB mounting feet to raise the toy up otherwise the ball would hit it when going through the left loop by the upper left flipper.
Quoted from boastaflow:Had the game two weeks now! Still loving it to death. Rs rocks. A very very underrated pin I say. Whats you thoughts on this subject rs fans?
I love mine and have owned it for nearly 3 years now. It's got "personality" and a lot going for it that no other game I have played comes close to feeling remotely the same. I recently turned on Buy Ins so I could continue my game and progress further and see more. Thank god it is still underrated which keeps it within reach for many other people to enjoy!
I dropped the subway under Ted to have easier access to replace the the flaky DB3 switch body for the roll over. Now I am trying to re-install the subway the same way I removed it and I am having a problem with the scoop plate (see pic below) not lining up or holding in place. So the ball won't drop below the playfield when shot in Ted's mouth.
If I remove the subway and put the plate in the position shown above the ball can drop through the hole no problem. Once I install the subway I think it pushes the scoop plate forward or out of place making the ball hole opening smaller.
I am looking at the inside of the subway and I don't see any slots or holes to line up into. Maybe because it is 1am right now and I've had a pretty long day but I can't seem to figure out what the trick is to this. Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance guys.
To add to my previous post, I remove Ted's face and back to get a better look inside and this is what I found
The scoop is pretty much attached via springs to Ted's jaw. I never removed any screws inside prior to dropping the subway and it looks like the scoop should have two screws to hold it in place seen in the top picture above. Ted has worked flawless for past 4 years and I've never had a ball hang up so. Should I just add some screws to hold it in place and put everything back together? If anyone had any detailed Ted head tear down pics that would be great. Thanks!
I think I have it figured out now after sleeping on it. What was throwing me off was I didn't remove any hardware except for the 3 wood screws and 1 machine screw from the subway under the playfield. The machine screw from the subway goes thru a T-nut and above the playfield behind where the scoop is suppose to sit. The end of the screw does protrude where the scoop's screw holes would mount. There looks to be enough thread for a nut to holding the scoop in place via middle notch and I must not have heard it drop when I removed the subway. I notice there are two other t-nuts which line up to the holes on the metal scoop bracket so I am going to stop by Fastnel on my way home to get the proper hardware and secure it properly.
Thanks for the exploded view even though it is of Red purplemunkydishw I was scratching my head looking at the exploded view of Ted last night but I guess it was late and my mind wasn't functioning properly. I did lose sleep as you can see after I went to lay down in bed for about 15-20 mins I had to run back down and quickly remove the Ted's face and back to get a better look inside the head to see what was going on. It bugs me when a game is down and my friend's even joke about me losing sleep over credit dots.
Aurium from pinballcards.com has some nice looking Roadshow cards.
Quoted from Mrawesome44:Dang well if anyone who has one is willing to sell. I'll pay a bit more than extra for one.
Also got another question how hard is it to install mirror blades in road show?
