Quoted from yzfguy:Sell me that earthshaker or no fear and buy a new shooter rod with the cash. Win-win!
Quoted from EvanDickson:Well now your taxi looks like sh*& and you should just give it to me. Do you have a spare on hand? (Shooter rod, not Taxi).
Vultures! I just picked up the No Fear and Earthshaker, I'm trying to fill the basement not get rid of games! And Taxi was mothballed for a while. This was a shooter rod from either Marco or Pinball Life. it's definitely the one I bought 3 years ago to restore the game.
Quoted from EvanDickson:I don't know how you could mothball that thing, after putting so much work into it!
Incoming package of bits from Pinball Life within 2-3 business days, let me know if it does not arrive. Then you can rebuild that thing. Choice of transparent red to match spinout and bumpers, OR traditional black, or even switch every other day. Thanks for hooking me up with your excellent left ramp last year when there were none to be found anywhere else.
Holy crap, thank you so much! That is super generous. Yeah I mean the game was 95% done for almost 2 years. Life got in the way, and with a toddler around I couldn't get the game dialed in because the games were in the dining room. I've moved now and have a proper basement so I had a local tech come over and show me where I messed up on Taxi (quite a few places!). I can't tell you how relieved I am to have all my games 100% playable.
BTW did not mean to malign Pinball Life or Marco. they're both vendors I love to order from. This was likely just a defect in the mold. I ended up ordering two of them because I was having such a hard time making the plunge in my game, the one from Pinball life was slightly longer or shorter. The one originally in the game was mushroomed. The other one that wasn't in Taxi got used in Earthshaker, which I bought and also had a mushroomed shooter rod.
