Quoted from tonycip:I like the speaker covers. where did you get them? thanks
They were custom painted by the restorer...
Quoted from 30FathomDave:I dig it, but I think it would look cooler if it were a few inches shorter and a few inches wider.
Agree!

Added an RBG strip to boney beast. Can change to15 or so different colours. Also dim up or down. Pics look a bit washed out but you get the idea. I used black zip ties instead of white so it looks like it is part of the spine.
Elvira has a "Coffin table book" coming out in October. $45, $90 signed.
Here is an article about it with some pics.

Been looking for a $5k scared stiff for a little while now. Saw one listed on here two months ago in Harrisburg and jumped right on it but the listing got closed down because supposedly multiple people were getting the run around and it was a scam. Players condition is fine with me. Not really able to afford all the heavily modded ones for sale in the marketplace right now. If you know anyone selling point me in the direction! Thank you!

Quoted from BobC:My Scared Stiff I got seems to be missing the kickback assembly : (
I can't seem to find a part number for it, does anybody have the assembly part number?
Anybody know where I can get one or a compatible one?
Thanks!
Bob C
Kickback was only on a handful of prototype games, you're all good 
Quoted from AlexSMendes:I'm ready to order my first color dmd and I'm gonna install it on the machine I most enjoy! SS, of course!!! Any recomendations? Has anyone tried the LCD and/or the LED versions? Which one is better and why?
I've got the lcd it looks great.

I'm in the same boat. I saw a side by side comparison of LCD vs LED at Expo and the LED seemed much more vivid and authentic to me. That said is SS supported for LED yet?

Quoted from Sethman:Have the LCD version in mine using DotXL mode and it looks great!
Well, placed the order today for the LED dmd! Now let's wait a month or two to arrive (damn customs)

BTW, congrats for the championship and GO DODGERS! 
Can somebody let me know what kind of screw to get?
My SS was missing some coffin parts.
I just got the cover and the metal plate, but it seems there should be a screw securing the coffin lid to the plate
That screw is not in the manual
Looks like what ever it is, the head needs to be short so as to not scratch the decal of the body below?
Thanks! - BobC

It would go into the plastic, and thus there are no treads to judge it by
Can somebody post a picture of their screw?
Installed the LED DMD on my SS... Super easy to install, I did it in a few minutes!
As most people are reporting, yes, it is super f*** bright!!! Now I got to find out how to tune it according to my taste... does anyone know where do I get some instructions to do it? Please, advise!
Also noticed that some transitions are not ok, especially when not at game-play, when I could pay more attention... sometimes a colored animation begins in white, and it takes a few time (less than a second), to turn into the proper color!
Anyway, this is my first colordmd and I'm happy with it.... Waiting for the updates on the rom to correct these minor transitions faults!
PS: The colordmd staff colored the eyeballs blue, while I got all my BG and PF eyes as green (also my custom shooter rod).... Now off to change some lamps... (at least the lighting changes are easier)!

Anyone have an undamaged original right slingshot plastic they might sell and know anyone who repairs these? Please help...
Quoted from hanktrainer:Actually I need both left and right...anyone have a set?

I think those are the same ones sold by pinball center
A lot of those European repros parts look kinda funky in general
if anybody gets some please post the results
hopefully planetary makes another run
Yes I got some reprise and the bone part doesn't match at all. If anyone has originals please let me know...
I posted here before..., gotta search the old posts..... the brazilian repros are the best!!!
Quoted from AlexSMendes:Here are some pics of the repro slingshot covers I acquired a couple of years ago.... Still checking whit the guy who made them if more can be produced!
PS: Unfortunately not available anymore.... 
Quoted from Alan_L:Perhaps this has already been answered in this thread, but how many Spider Awards must you win to pass TEX, the default leader?
I had to get them all on my game.
Quoted from Strohz:It's direct print, pre-decals.
Thx

Arg...my friend sent a picture and it looks like a proprietary rivet-like screw : (
Another friend thinks he can make something for me though
Meanwhile, one of my globe stands fell apart because the super small bolt nuts fell out. Don't know the size/threading. Don't know who might have them (marco doesn't)
This is sucking LOL
Quoted from Coyote:Good to see you landed one!
I always get the right deal.... im very patient
Quoted from bigd1979:I always get the right deal.... im very patient
Ok I'll bite, How much did you put out for it??
Damn it looks real nice. I'm jealous. Been looking for one just not really comfortable spending the kind of money these go for on a pinball machine at the moment especially without playing it first if I have to get it shipped which I almost did a few weeks ago. It was really hard to pass up when you find one for the lowest they pretty much go for these days but i had to. One day it'll happen.
Quoted from tonycip:Ok I'll bite, How much did you put out for it??
Bought a package deal so hard to really say but it was the best price ive found on one sin6 ive been looking for 4 months.... and the nicest. Also a partially restored eatpm which will go beside ss

I put in alot of work finding the right deal .... i know of others that i didnt purchase. If interested i can give u the leads. Its definitely worth the price of admission and why its hard to find and going up in price... its up there with mb, tz, afm imo....
What did you get with it?
