If someone likes these cards, and would be willing to take a few pictures of them installed on their comic book edition in exchange for a free set, please let me know.

Me too... sort of... LOL... I am really liking this game.... This weekend's agenda? Add lenticular apron cards, The Millenium Falcon from the Premium, and a shaker..... So far so good. Can't believe how fast and fun this game is.

Getting a post save really makes me feel like the force is with me. Down votes can only come from the dark side.

Quoted from Pgorey:

Thank you for the quick responses. I have just updated to 1.05. and also have the pro. Hoping to build a MF mod that flashes etc.
This is such a fun machine and I'm just starting to figure out the gameplay.

There is a dedicated connector for that flasher on the node board under the playfield. I just updated my pro with a premium MF from Stern. Plug and play and works in the pro code without issue. I have a couple of Premium MF shells-ship only, if you want to experiment with your own setup.

#9753 3 years ago
Quoted from Pgorey:

Awesome! I figured there had to be a pre-made MF from Stern. I'll likely go that route for the first one.

Here you go... I am not sure how many of these are out there, but I wouldn't wait a long time to grab one.

It is literally plug and play.

Quoted from Soapman:

Can someone who has put a falcon on a pro post some photos of the mount. I got a factory falcon but dont have a mount to put it on the ramp. Any help would be great. (being a little lazy and not making one)
Thanks

No mount... remove lower screw on ramp, slide falcon post through, and use the nut from the screw on the falcon post. There is a little L bracket on the falcon that snugs against the ramp to keep falcon from moving.

Falcon faces LCD when mounted.

Quoted from Pgorey:

t's a 3rd Party - Little Shop fo Games

This is the official one made by Stern for the Premiums. I bought the same one. It doesn't come with the mounting wire, but as you stated, not necessary.

#9954 3 years ago
Quoted from Hammer3246:

Thanks for the info! Mines aftermarket but I didn't like the LED strip (not enough lights) so I replaced it. The original just required wiring it to an existing light but I was hoping to plug it into the board, just worried about wrecking something in case there's anything special about it.

So which one do you have now? The Stern one like LSOG was selling? If so, it is a direct plug and play into the node board, and it is supported in the Pro code.

Quoted from ray3127:

Initially I thought I'd go with the art blades, but now I'm leaning mirror. And I keep wondering about the black mirror.

I would personally go regular mirror, but only to brighten up the game a bit. Overall the light show is phenomenal, but if you are playing in the dark, some of the modes with the color changing GI tend to be a bit dark and make it tricky to see the ball. I don't think you can go wrong with any of them, but mirror would get my vote.

Quoted from coloradodan:

I got some new instruction cards from Pinside vendor ralphwiggum. (https://pinside.com/pinball/market/shops/1289-youbentmywookie/04328-star-wars-apron-cards) Adds a nice touch!
[quoted image]

I know that guy! Never heard anything good about him though....lol

They look great! And honestly, seeing your art blades, I would go that route for the comic without hesitation! Those look great!

#10066 3 years ago
Quoted from coloradodan:

ralphwiggum I think you should also print a replacement for the middle, so it matches, and we could get cover up that ugly yellow seizure warning too.

I had a buddy tell me the same thing. I do have glossy decal paper and and a vinyl cutter. If I can find some time away from selling these instruction cards, I may be able to come up with a sticker that covers just the yellow portion of the sticker, so it is reversible if you want the awesome yellow back.

Quoted from SWfan:

Sound advice for sure, just so weak it’s hard to ignore (at least in the short-term).
I’m going to therapy for it though, so it should get better after a few sessions...

Was "rabidswfan" already taken when you signed up on pinside? Lolol

Just having fun with you....

I have been here awhile, and couldn't even tell you where the top 100 is located, let alone what games are on it.

Different strokes, and all that.

Enjoy your SW! I play mine more than any other pin, which is a pleasant surprise since I wasn't even looking for one.

Congrats Ray! That machine looks amazing. The artwork is phenomenal, and the gameplay is equally fantastic. Everytime I see a Comic Premium, I keep thinking I should sell my regular Pro to get one. Anytime my wife notices a machine (in 20 years, I can count on one hand she notices), I know the artwork is great. She keeps telling me we need the comic version.

Quoted from ray3127:

It's a far cry from machines today. Now I am hooked!

How far along are you in the process of "If I move this, I can fit a machine here"......

#10202 3 years ago
Quoted from ray3127:

Oh, quite far. I have it all mapped out on AutoCAD!

Quoted from crujones4life:

There are 2 screws on the left ramp that aren't screwed into anything. I assume this is for the Millennium Falcon? I wonder was this originally designed to be included and then removed to save some monies? If I buy the original Stern Millennium Falcon does it just screw in there with those 2 screws? I am not big on mods but was considering the MF. Thanks!

https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/stern-star-wars-clubmay-the-force-be-with-you/page/198#post-6045693

Plug and play.... code supports it too. You can make a bracket if you want, or just use the existing screw.

#10641 2 years ago
Quoted from crujones4life:

Happen to have a link to this Falcon? Is it heavy? You think it causes stress to the ramp?

The place I got mine from is sold out. The part number you want is- 511-7887-00. It definitely will not cause stress to the ramp, it is pretty light. If you strike out looking for one, there are aftermarket ones out there that function slightly differently. Or if you want to try your hand at making your own. I bought two gutted Stern ones (just the shell, you would need to put a light in it, and make some sort of mount for it. You could have one if you want to cover shipping.
