Here are some of the mods I installed on my Pro so far.

Diddy’s bridge mod, Mezel mods building and signs, Lermods Tesla coils.
Also replaced the Godzilla, Mothra, and Mechagodzilla (still in progress) with figures. I also installed interactive scoop lighting that I tied to the appropriate mode light.

Having a blast with this game. Just updated the code and liking it so far.

Quoted from Betelgeuse:

Nicely done! What figure did you use for Mechagodzilla? I had been thinking about getting the Bandai 2004 one and cutting him in half, but not sure if there's a better option out there.

Thanks! The Mechagodzilla figure is from Bandai produced in 2009. Part of the classic series, wave 5. You can find then on eBay. I cut it in half.

Just added some atomic breath I made to Godzilla.

Quoted from Wmsfan-GAP:

That looks fantastic. How’d you do it?

Thank you. For the atomic breath I used a plastic drink straw. I cut slits in the end to that I could flange it out at the end that was against the bridge. I then built up layers of hot glue on the straw to give it texture and depth. I added some polyester at the end for the vapor/smoke affect where the beam was hitting the bridge. Then I air brushed the beam with transparent blue and then hand painted some highlights on the it. I put a 3mm blue led at the end that goes in Godzilla's mouth.

Quoted from Joker19:

Wow. Love that! Take my money.

Agree, that looks great. Any idea when these will be ready to order?

Quoted from Bucknut3000:

These mods look great. I just bought my first pinball machine and its the Godzilla Pro. How do you remove the existing features such as the godzilla, mothra and megag and what do you use to adhere the new monsters? Is it some type of glue?

Thanks. As others have said the plastics are held on with screws, so you can just unscrew them.
Then I used a little bit of hobby wire with the mounting tabs to secure the figures. If needed I’ll drill a small hole in the side of the figure to loop the wire into. I had to do that with Mechagodzilla. No glue or anything like that.

Speaking of mechagodzilla, I updated the figure and redid the eyes and put an led in his mouth too.

I went with a couple of MicroMachines Mig 15s for my jets. Repainted them to closer match the playfield art.

Quoted from Sleal16:

... American F-86 Sabres. The ones in the artwork are MiG 15s. Tough choice, guess it might not matter too much and just get whatever of those variations look good

Yeah, you can't go wrong with either of them. I just preferred the version Zombie Yeti did for the playfield art.

Quoted from billsfanmd:

thx. lots of great mods for this pin.

Yeah, the variety of mods available for this game is awesome, especially if you have a pro model!

I couldn't swing getting tdiddy's new building, but love the concrete look, so I repainted my Mezel building. (Wasn't overly fond of the bluish color building.)

That's the beauty of it, there's plenty to customize and equip the game to meet anyone's preference

Quoted from rdawsoniii:

Nice!
Did you go straight gray, or spray on a base (such as black) first?
And how did you do the Drake sign?

Thanks. I masked off the Drake sign. Used a dark gray primer basecoat. Then layers of medium and light gray. Used a dark gray wash for the cracks and crevices for some shadowing and then some white gray dry brushing some highlights.

Quoted from HC2016:

If anyone is interested in this 6” figure for 20 bucks shipped , message me . [quoted image]

That’s the same one I used for my game. I repainted it to better match the playfield art, though. GLWS

Quoted from Strummy:

As we continue to work on the next big project we came up with this 3 inch Xilien figure and a few others in between. I'm curious if there is much interest. The final product will be a hand painted pewter, chromed or not, or a black patina in the details. This is a resin proto and a render
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Looks good. I’d be interested if you end up offering these. Would there be an option for an unpainted version?

Mechagodzilla must be stopped…no matter the cost. I always think they should’ve added that last part to the callout when I hear it.

Anyway, I updated the mecha sculpt on my pro. Removed the Bandai version with the weird arms that I was using and put on the premium sculpt from Pinball Life.
I had to add some lighting, too. So I cut some small pieces of acrylic for the eyes, tied a red blinking led to the mecha insert for the mouth and put a blue led in the body. The eyes and body are tied into the white GI.
