Recently acquired a Premium, love the theme and speed of the game but damn, the out lane ball drains are absurd. I moved the posts to the narrowest setting and am considering beefing up the silicone rings on the lane guide posts. Anyone have any experience with this and recommend a size? Doesn't seem like many options out there so want to see if anyone has any ideas. Thanks in advance.

That is awesome! Thanks for sharing. I looked on Marco, looks like they only have red in stock but question for you, does the plastic come with the actual metal screw/post that goes into the playfield or do you slide off the existing ring and put the siamese post on it? And what size ring goes around the siamese plastic?

Thanks in advance for your insight, this looks like exactly the solution I need for an otherwise sweet pin.

Would love any suggestions on the adjustments that can be made other than the outlane posts. I am getting a lot of SDTM shots and ball launch drains. There are times that I don't even touch a flipper and get two successive drains from launching and ball save launch. So frustrating. Thanks in advance.

What type of wire are y'all using to mount mods to the screws/posts? thanks in advance.

Thanks! Ordered some!

Thought i'd share some of the mods I just installed. This is a tough pin to mod. Not a shortage of SW toys to find but to make them fit and maintain the same scale and theme was challenging.

Oh and btw, thanks to others on this forum, used some of your ideas and insights. discovered that using a glue gun is best way to connect 18 gauge wire into the mods/toys. there is any existing hole in the bottom of the toys that is for the posts that come with them, I filled the hole with hot glue and inserted the wire into it and it holds nicely. one trick is to make sure you put a bend into the wire before inserting into the glue hole so that it doesn't spin once dry.

Yes, two Falcons but the way the playfield is sectioned, doesn't look bad. They're like different scenes and the Falcon I added is small so doesn't over power the view.

Came from a set of collectible figures off Amazon. Unfortunately, the rest of the figures are too big to fit, with exception of Boba Fett. I stuck him in the back corner, kind of hidden, but he's my fave so snuck him in the corner. But the Han carbonite fit perfect on the shooter lane.

U definitely need a stiff drink after that stress. lol. game gets nuts when things start heating up.

used double sided mounting tape. put it on the left side of the mod and attached it to the right side of apron, which is metal and will come off easily without damaging anything.

double sided mounting tape i used is: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0787PGKWR/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00

hope this helps.

can see boba in the back left. he's kind of hidden. will take some pics of mounting the ships later this week when i have some time to take pics. wifes hot glue gun was the key to mounting the wire into the ship. damn, that sounded weird. lol. anyway, will take pics later this week.

Had the same issue with mine and candidly, for my home use pins, I can't stand unforgiving outlanes and have no shame in beefing them up so I can enjoy the game more. Marco sells a Gottlieb double-wide siamese post that I put on my left outlane and angled it to be more forgiving and block the opening a little more. You'll have a play with the angle of the post because it's a pretty tight fit up against the wall but once you get it angled, works really well. I've also taken a foam ball from one of my kids foam ball shooters and drilled a hole through it and popped it right over the post to block some of it. Purest can be disgusted but I want to enjoy my game and minimizing the outlane drains makes it more fun.

Trying to reduce power on the slings but for the life of me, I cannot find where to do it. Have gone through the adjustments menu and can't find it. Anyone know where to reduce sling power? my other Sterns, it's in the adjustment menu and easy to find. thanks in advance.

That’s a good suggestion, I have the leaf switch tool so all good there. Just weird you can’t adjust it like the newer sterns but i guess it’s a new feature. Thx man

Anyone have an idea of how many Comic Art Prem Stern made? I’ve read 200-300 but don’t remember where I saw it and/or how accurate that is since Stern doesn’t disclose it. Thx.

Anyone know where to get a new plastic for the Endor ramp? It's L22, airball plastic. This is a heavy use area so surprised someone isn't selling one. I found a set but not the individual plastic. I reached out to Stern but wasn't if one of you 3D print wizards could whip one up. Thanks in advance.

Made a Han Solo carbonite shooter lane/plunger mod cover if anyone is interested. Can check out my store page and order. Thanks in advance.

It does block the window. If you use it to gauge your plunge, this isn’t for you. I personally never look at it and my plunges are feel based. And for SW, not a lot of skill shot options anyway so it’s typically the same plunge. At least for me anyway. Thanks for the inquiry.
