LE tower for us too please
Quoted from tdiddy:I'm sorry guys, I really want to get this piece out to you. The Naegele has been kicking my ass these last fee months. We hope to launch the PRO version very soon with a Prem/Le to follows along with another special piece that needs to be addressed.

Man, looking awesome Tom! Killing it!
Here's another shot of our tank from the top and how it lines up well with the flames on the stock plastic. If you buy your own tank, keep this in mind when mounting it. I was considering making a flame mod for the tank, but that area takes a beating and I think they would not last long.

Quoted from Dewback9:I’m going to try this as the shooter. Virtually identical to a Aston shift knob at a fraction of the price.

I got a guy to model this for me in 3d Printed in Resin, except shooter rod and button. This was a concept; final product has a resin button (No HOLE). Yes, it does press, but does nothing except eject someone out of a car somewhere.

I think an LED panel with an acrylic protector on top and below might work
Quoted from jamesmauler1:Also keychain for the keys...

Nice! I did the same today, I just made the 007 letters stand proud. Black Tux for the coin door, white tux for the backbox. 2mm thick base with 2mm thick raised letters/gun.

Those look great! I went this route to match the one for my JP (also pictured):

The art blades look great - https://www.wizardmod.com/product-page/007-pinball-wizblades
I just got the alternate translight and was thinking about those art blades....just need to see if I want those or mirror blades.

You know, I really like mirrors and love them in my Godzilla, but those look fantastic. I think I'll order a set and give them a whirl.
Quoted from GoRun26:New translight looks amazing and arrived so quickly!! Thanks Pinstein![quoted image]
Pinsider Pinstein is your guy. PM him directly for ordering info.
Just got mine - definitely a huge improvement over stock!

I'll start a thread when we're ready to start a list, please don't jam up this thread with requests. Plus it's highly likely that the requests here will be lost over time .....hang in there guys good stuff coming

Art blades are nice but wish they would have used the disco volante over the scoop area and another rocket on back left is a little redundant.
Still will probably buy since there are no other options.
Quoted from jamesmauler1:Made a thing... Speaker Grill cover for 5.25 speaker. I can resize to 4inch for Pro/Premium. I have the Prem, but upgraded the speakers to 5.25. Also keychain for the keys...

I love the speaker covers! Very well done.

The art blades are high quality too, not cheap at all. Highly recommend them.. I usually buy mirror blades but I am glad I didn’t this time.
Got my alt translite installed. Makes the stock Dr. No version look homebrew.
Now I have a James Bond 007 pinball machine.
Quoted from pinballjah:New transite for Pro/Premium. PM me if you like to get on the list. Watermarks will be removed on the final version. Cheers.

Why is Roger Moore on your translight? The pinball is only Connery movies …
Makes no sense…

I imagine that that there are some big fans of Roger Moore (as James Bond) who will want him on their game regardless of him not being in the game.
Not my personal preference (for the same reason you stated), but to each their own.

Agreed - just a wierd choice - go more obscure for George Lazenby

I plan to do one that is all Connery as well. Thanks.
Status of mods thus far:
1) Rocket City hardware clean-up kit;
2) Rocket City spectre insert;
3) Modfather pincup;
4) Modfather shooter rod;
5) Tilt Graphics custom flipper covers (purchased via Modfather);
6) Filament Printing reject buttons (need to install brighter bulbs);
7) Die-cast Aston Martin DB5 keychain/keyring (eBay $20);
8) Space Coast Pinball dress up magnet art & decal art;
9) Home-made sharp ramp edge protectors;
10) Blue slingshot rubbers (from my spare parts---vendor unknown) paired with red flipper rubbers.
I really like Rocket City's hardware clean-up kit and spectre insert, which are the most significant mods on my game. When it comes to custom shooter rods, I opt for a globe shape. I once had a weird custom Dorothy head shooter rod for my WOZECLE and I dislike the feel of those odd shaped knobs. Thus, the Modfather turquoise globe rod was ideal for me.

Man.. I was thinking the same thing. I prefer mirrors, but those blades are on point.
Been working on this piece for a little bit, I figured that Spectre need a base of operations, and the giant void in the area bothered me. So why not a Spectre Mansion for the Villains and henchmen shots.
This building is modeled after the famous Stoke Park in U.K. , and can be seen in the movie Gold Finger when Bond plays golf there against Gold Finger and Odd Job.
We still have some fine tuning to do but figured we're close enough that we can share.

A big thanks to Pinmonk for his Dragon tank mount - I did add an amber Comet Pinball LED strip and soldered it to the yellow light with matrix connectors … super easy, didn’t take long, maybe cost $30 total.
No offense to the guys selling Dragon tanks for $100-175 plus their stuff has nice connectors and all but it’s a pretty easy upgrade. I did not hook up the yellow eye lights like others did but that seems like a much more complex part to solder in and my way was easy and fast.
Sorry not the best pics - I will take the glass off and take a pic

Yeah not feeling that building Diddy, I don’t view the ramps a void though so that might be why it doesn’t fit visually in my eyes.

Reminds me of thst other spy game secret service. That game had a lot of buildings.

Agree, don’t think the building fits the game at all.
How about one of the other prominent Q gadgets for that location?

Stuff in Bond is pretty well spaced out, especially on the prem/le where the extra lock wireform on the upper left fills up that space.
There’s not alot of large space ls to fill in with stuff, overall there’s not a lot of mod potential when compared to say Godzilla.

Very nice detail, the size is throwing me off, maybe it is just the perspective. Or just the location. Darn nice work. No criticism by any means.

[Relocating this post from owners' thread to mod thread]
I like your mods and have purchased a few for my Rush and Godzilla games, but (FWIW) this one doesn't evoke James Bond for me personally and thus seems out of place. Reminds me of the much more iconic Monticello.
Quoted from GoRun26:New translight looks amazing and arrived so quickly!! Thanks Pinstein![quoted image]
I'm having trouble finding a place to actually order this, can anyone provide a link or shop for this?

Just message Pinstein here and he'll take care of you!
The building sits exactly where I placed my Little Nellie so, apologies, but no room for it in my game. Love your work nonetheless.
while the building looks nice it doesn't suit the location
for me the back board is plan as hell and front facade of the M5 building might be a better fit up there especially on the Pro - that said the M5 building is more used in the newer movies

Excellent work on the model, but it's a weird place for that building. The ramps seem to be intended to be a visual shorthand of the octopus tentacles of SPECTRE, so having a SPECTRE octopus at the apex with tentacles coming down, one over each ramp, and another couple going backward to that other habitrail would make more sense visually from a theme integration perspective.

I'm sure the guy selling those $10 tank models for $19.95 on Amazon is wondering what's going on as he's suddenly sold more than 40 in a few weeks. Hardest part about it is figuring out the mounting, which is why I made the $7 mount. Glad it worked out for you. Certainly fills up that space nicely on a Pro.
