Quoted from PinballHaven:

Ordering new avengers coils now..........damn you monk!

Quoted from Allibaster:

For the bank Godzilla mod, how are you securing him to the plastic?
The fasteners look hard to reach after he’s in.

Quoted from Tranquilize:

Every 90s machine I own has great lightshows in the backbox. Hasn't affected gameplay yet... Maybe I'm missing all this glare that everyone hates. A few darker games might get it bad I guess.

Quoted from BallyKISS1978:

So any issues if I order AIQ flipper coil 090-5032-ND to replace the ones in Godzilla? They just feel weak compared to AIQ. Happy new year to everyone.

Quoted from PinMonk:

Have you tried checking the EOS timing, adjusting cabinet switch blade gaps, changing out buttons, adjusting flipper power in the settings first? 5032 is kind of a lateral move from the 5030 and isn't going to give you that much of a different feel. 1080 windings vs 1100 on the 5030.
What you're feeling could be a lot of other adjustments. I'd run through those first.

Quoted from ChipScott:

-Added a Mechagodzilla figure (and after attaching the music wire, I added foam padding underneath, which sticks nicely to the underside of the toy. I added a pic of this because I frequently add toys/mods that sit on pf plastics that are hooked to local nuts, bolts, etc and I thought this was a nice way to protect the pf plastics it sits on and wanted to share that).

Quoted from Reul1:

I have the same issue with mine. There are no threads in the left side That the 4x40 screws are to be tightened into. The screws just push in. It is like they are stripped out, but I looked at it and there wasn’t anything for the screws to tighten to. The right side was fine and I tried a screw from the left side and put it on the right and it works just fine.
I tried to tap it to the next size but now the nut will turn in there, not allowing it to tighten correctly.
Looks like the 1st floor will need to be replaced at least. I asked if they would just replace the building but have not heard back from Stern or my distributor yet. [quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from matt68061:

Thanks… it was just acryllic paint I stole from my wifes craft room…. I believe it was “Folkart” bought from Michaels or Hobby Lobby.
Used 2-3 different greens and some yellow…. Mixed into 4-5 shades and just thinly layered them on. Have to let each layer dry or it all just blends together.
For the blues I started with a purple/navy mix and just lightened the blues up to nearly white towards the top of his scutes. (Not a word you get to use every day…ha!). Use 3 shades of blue.
When it was dry I cleaned all the brushes in a small dish water and added a dab of black paint. With a very runny dark mix, almost water in consistency, I lighly brushed that in places and let it run down through the crevices in his scales…dabbing in places with a paper towel. Gave it a nice depth…kind of a “low lighting” if you will.
Wasted the last three hours looking at small LED’s… considering sticking one in the roof of his mouth .
Good luck!

Quoted from rue_:

Great mods in this thread. I feel bad I just tossed my Godzilla pro into a brewery and I didn’t check pitch or anything. It’s between the two marks with the bubble slightly toward the top more. I kinda want to add the Towers to the playfield and the building skin.

Quoted from ktuhde:

LE owners, how do you like the powder coat color? I have a pro and have looked at colors to possibly powder coat. I ordered some samples of mostly red and red/orange colors. Also some green and blues. Nothing really clicks for me. After looking at the LE pictures I actually kind of like the metallic silver. I have only seen the LE in person at Pincinnati, and hard to get a good look in that lighting. Opinions?

Quoted from CaptainNeo:

who the hell wants bright backboxes anyway? I set all my backbox light to 10% when playing. Cuts down on glare. You do NOT want a lit up backbox when you are trying to play.

Quoted from subseamonkey:

Looks great! What figure did you use please?

Quoted from troon47:

Is anyone else watching "Godzilla vs. Megalon" and "Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla" on Comet? Cool seeing the film clips on my LE for the first time in the real movie.

I was just watching them both on Comet with my 8 year old. He's fascinated by the old movies and wants to see them all now.

Quoted from blueberryjohnson:

Just played a game and all my high and champ scores are wiped out. Any idea why/how that would happen (without doing it in the menu myself)?
Edit: Just found the htsd reset setting and turned it off. Wish I would have known about that earlier.

Quoted from PinMonk:

Wow, you must be playing a LOT of games. Isn't the HSTD reset set for like 1000 plays by default?

Quoted from blueberryjohnson:

I reset probably ten games on ball one for every one I play through. Maybe a bad habit to crack down on

Quoted from MacGruber:

It's 2000 plays and it will reset them all accept the GC I think it's something they did for location play so beginner's can get there names in again for a little bit before they all go too high. Maybe never beat the default GC and that's why he lost that one otherwise i can't explain why that one erased.

Quoted from ChipScott:

Thanks!!
For the mechagodzilla, I used the 1983 Bandai Kaiju Toho

Quoted from Terpslurps:

Sorry if I missed it, but is anyone else having an issue on ball 1 of the first game after you turn the machine on? After I launch the ball and hit with a flipper, the flippers die and won't work. Then the ball save has a hard time launching another ball. After like 15 seconds, the flippers will just start working again and it's fine until you power it off. It's like the lower section of the playfield loses power temporarily. Only happens on ball 1 of first game after powering on.

Quoted from chuckwurt:

Sounds like your node board is restarting due to a short somewhere. See if the game throws up any errors when you boot it up or run the node board tests to see if anything comes up. It’s most likely a LED lamp socket short somewhere.

Quoted from PinMonk:

Hook him up with Johnny Sokko when you're done. It's on Comet, too. It was one of my favorites as a kid, but I have to say as an adult I found it hilarious/jarring that it was no big deal for a 10 year old to be running around brandishing a handgun with the rest of the team (as he does pretty frequently in the show).

Quoted from TheOriginalWiz:

What do you guys think the chances are of getting a 'home game' high score screen added? I don't really want 1-5 high scores (because... well, they are all mine), but I would love to see high scores of each of the registered players displayed. This would keep it interesting for the rest of the family. It would not be a default of course, but something selectable in the settings. It might not have been a good idea before insider connected, but could be a way to evolve the machine now that we have it. Thoughts?

Quoted from Jay_Killjoy:

Put a shaker motor in my premium. Wow. The shaker motor integration on this game is insane.
I can’t recall other games that use a shaker this much. Whenever a Kaiju can be heard stomping around the motor just gives these little flutters to add to each step. I was talking with some friends about this and we cannot think of a game that uses a shaker motor better (other than Earthshaker).

For the mechagodzilla, I used the 1983 Bandai Kaiju Toho movie figure.
For example, here is an eBay link to one of these toys:
ebay.com link: itm
These toys are made of a somewhat soft vinyl and are hollow, however, they seem to hold their shape/structure quite well. The fact that they are hollow also makes it easier to tie in lights from the inside of these figures, if one were so inclined. It is very easy to pop the torso from the lower body and use the upper half as the mod.

Quoted from MikeS:

How's everyone doing on their Godzilla achievements? I got my game about 10 days ago and have 37/39 achievements. The Triple Godzilla Super Jackpot and the More Buildings Destroyed (destroy 5 in a game) are proving to be a challenge. Any tips or pointers on knocking these 2 out? Also, if anyone wants to add me as a connection my player ID is MikeS.

Quoted from PinPeet:

Question. I have the chance to buy an LE but have the pro already at home. Love it. Quick and clean.
Should I buy the LE and sell the Pro. I love the right quick loop on the pro and think I will miss it when you have the Bash Toy MechaGodzilla. Do you think the bridge and Tower is worth the upgrade?
Thanks
