I want stranger things to be my next purchase. I have to save up quite a bit. Then lie to my wife about the price! Lol

Quoted from dinot:

Man, no chance that the next SW release adds an extra couple of ms to hold that up-post down. My OCD will kill me to have the PF not 100% level.
The attached pic happened in my "pin/kid hauler". Do you know what that did to me???
[quoted image]

I wouldn’t be able to function!!! Just knowing that is happening will keep me awake tonight!!! Lmao!!!

Quoted from swampfire:

I hate to gush about a new game, but man I love my STH Pro. It’s been a great journey from Iron Man, to Guardians, to JP, to STH. I don’t know whether to be happy or concerned that my scores jump from ~100k to ~500k after I’ve had 2-3 beers. I seem to be much better at the right ramp in particular.
I rewatched all 3 seasons this past month, and it’s really enhanced my enjoyment of the game. Thematically, Stranger Things is a trifecta for me: SciFi, small town America and “Coming of Age”. Stern did a great job with the theme integration, and Cleland took it up a few more notches. Will we ever get another game with callouts from kids? I’m still hoping for The Goonies, but this is even better.
beelzeboob I’ll probably own an LZ at some point. I need more time on it, and I’m thinking of buying a Premium for a location - though the Pro looks good to me too. Such a great time for those of us who love simple flowy layouts.
PanzerFreak, come over to the dark side. It’s fun here.

The Goonies would be an instant hit for sure!!! One eyed Willy in a treasure ship! The truffle shuffle! Data’s inventions to lift and move the ball!
A sound bite saying “HEY YOU GUYS”!!!
You should work for stern!!!

#9927 2 years ago
Quoted from aztarac:

Good luck finding a NIB Premium. Distributors are out and from what I've been told by several of them, it's out of production with no plans from Stern to make more. I picked up a NIB Pro and can't be happier.

There are a few in Toronto, Canada. I almost bought one until my wife found out it was $15000CAD!!! It was shut down quickly!!!

#9936 2 years ago
Quoted from Pin_Fandango:

in the resale market?

No, Jerry at Player One in Toronto has them.

#9947 2 years ago
Quoted from MrMikeman:

No way a Prem is 15k with tax. I just got a NIB LE from Player 1 in early March and it was 13,6k with tax. Now with the topper and UV kit yes it’ll be 15k. But for a LE.

Call for yourself. The total with taxes came to a few hundred under $15000.

#9949 2 years ago
Quoted from MrMikeman:

I guess P1 is now adjusting to COVID gouging pricing? I’ve bought 4 NIB from them and always paid msrp and not a penny more.
Check with Nitro. It’ll cost you shipping though.

There is a Stern Distributer in the west coast. It may have been Nitro, that has USD on their website. The price was WAY cheaper! I called and they gave me the number to Player One.
Jerry is a great guy but I can’t pay those kind of prices.

#9967 2 years ago
Quoted from hollywood:

Hate to argue, but you are perhaps misinformed?
I just paid for mine yesterday from Jerry and the total (including delivery $230) came to $11550.86
(Still a ton of money, but less than $15k)
Now, I already have the shaker, UV kit and the Dice shooter....so that may add up closer to your total (and the topper is 1k plus tax).
I also ordered ULEKs signs, flipper bat toppers, Tilt side blades, the vehicles, glow rubbers, speaker lights...addictive!

You are correct ! I ended up finding the email. Player one does have them cheaper than the other company! I was looking for one that had financing! Player One starts at $7990 for a pro, $10,250 premium, and $12,250 LE. I apologize!
The two other companies in Toronto on Kijiji starts at $9999 pro but they have financing.

#10178 2 years ago

If I buy a pro, can I add the projector afterwards?

#10354 2 years ago
Quoted from PoMC:

Will be keeping for another month or so and will wait for the UV kit to arrive before selling or trading

Is it a pro or premium?

Never mind I just checked out your collection

Quoted from PoMC:

Getting ready to eject from the club. Tuesday it is swapped with Avengers IQ Pro with a Pinwoofer sound system installed.
Already looking forward to adding attract mode videos and maybe more.
Stranger Things was never going to be a keeper. Never saw the show, but wanted to try something new and it delivers on a terrific shooting game.
[quoted image]

I love the posters on the walls! You kind of stole my idea (haven’t done it yet) and made it better!

#11936 2 years ago
Quoted from bossk4hire:

Got my uv kit! That was a surprise hahaha. Now to save up for the game!
[quoted image]

I was thinking about doing this. I want to get most of the mods for this game but I don’t want to get a game fully modded out and have to try to sell off the doubles.

Have many people done it this way?

#11978 2 years ago

I’m looking for the dig dug machine, Billy’s Camero, and hoppers truck. I’ve looked through a few mod places and through quite a bit of the thread.

#12061 2 years ago

I still have to buy the machine…
However I have a few mods on the way!
Lol

#12072 2 years ago

My dig dug machine is already here!!! That is crazy fast! Cointaker for lermods!
No machine yet but I’m working on it!!!

Thanks @chuckwurt!

I can’t believe how fast some of these shipments are coming through the border! Plus they are shipping out pretty much as soon as they get the order! Just got my “Walkie Talkie” from @mr_tantrum!

Quoted from MMP:

I ordered several months ago and got tired of waiting. Found they had available stock at GAP so re-ordered and received in 1 week.
If my original ever ships I will keep as spare, or trade to someone for a sheet of HD glass.

What is Gap short for. I want to order one

I think never ending story is huge in the third season. The machines are based on season 1, 2, and 3. Unless they change the layout or translite, Kate Bush really doesn’t fit. I hope they do another version of the game. After the series is over to accommodate everything.

#15186 1 year ago

I apologize. I thought it was the three! I don’t have the game yet! It’s my next acquisition! I have already bought a bunch of mods!

Quoted from VisitorQ:Just season 1 and 2, not 3.

#15311 1 year ago

They made one it is in thingverse! You need a 3D printer. Someone in 3D printers was selling them for a while, don’t know if they still are?

Quoted from applejuice:So i finally have alittle time to get an insider kit installed on my stranger things pro. I have the uv kit installed and therefore the new uv apron. It apparantly has a square cutout already in the rhs triangle side for the qr code scanner, which is covered over by the artwork sticker. I really don't want to lose the artwork on it and also the stock stern insider artwork they give you is bloody horrible!!!
So i thought i'd mount my scanner in the rhs apron area, like the premium apron has a cutout for. But what to do about a custom apron insert??. So, i have come up with this, which i'm going to get made as a thin plastic with cutouts and screw holes for the scanner. There will be some cutting of the apron needed underneath, but should look good i think

#15714 1 year ago

There was a conversation about this a few pages ago

Quoted from VisitorQ:Yeah. I had one installed on my game when I had it. It was cool but IMO it never turned on and off at the correct times. I wasn't the one who initially installed it so there may have been a better way of doing it.

#15717 1 year ago

I have mine ready to go! Just need the machine! I will put it where Lermods has it! It fits perfectly there! Truly adds to the game!

#15718 1 year ago
Quoted from Utesichiban:

I would reach out to Lermods with questions about the Dig Dug mod. I believe they made the mod and could answer those questions.

Did you end up getting the set with the portal?

#15750 1 year ago

Lmao!

Quoted from oldskool1969:Apparently Stranger Things is going to be filmed in the UK for the next few seasons!
They have to change the name to
" bit odd innit? "

#15812 1 year ago

Just bought 5 of these(spy hunter, frogger, paper boy, rampage and gauntlet) to create a topper for my machine when I get it! I think I will keep the dig dug on the top of the machine with them.

I chose to believe! He called her Elle and Millie! It’s coming!

Quoted from reffob:

This all comes from Stern wishing Millie Bobby Brown happy birthday on their social media, and they said something like "we'll see you in 2024." The logical interpretation is that Season 5 of the show is coming 2024, but now we have people saying this means Stern is re-running Stranger Things in 2024.

#17343 1 year ago

That would be a great pin!

Quoted from blizz81:The same people that freak out if Stern does something like posts a picture of Millie Bobby Brown on her birthday are probably hard at work on a Shazam Stern hype thread right now

I had no idea about this! I’m going to bring my daughter there ASAP!

Quoted from PinPickle:For those Stranger Things series fans out there… I’m sure there’s a few.
Had a chance to visit the Stranger Things Experience in Toronto (in other cities as well) and we were blown away.
I thought it was a bit more of a shopping thing but it was an actual experience very immersive, actors played a major roll in it and I highly recommend it if you can get to one. Finally got the chance to play a pro too.
Photos were not allowed in the actual experience but it felt like I was at Universal Studios. These photos are from the room after the experience.
Go if you can.

Kool Aid with no sugar! That is one of the best statements on the inter web!

Quoted from pinner11:My Sth came with the pinstadiums and I would say they are 100% worth it. Are they as good as the official Stern UV kit, I’m not sure having never seen it. But I will say you are missing out if you do not have either as it’s such a great addition to the game. $500 is steep but you also get better/customizable lighting during normal game play which I really enjoy. Having this game without any UV kit is like having kool aid with no sugar or cereal with no milk, just doesn’t make sense.

All I know is I don’t have a Stranger Things pin and I’m dying to get one! I’ve followed this thread for basically the whole time I’ve been on Pinside and really want to post a picture of my own!

I just saw your post on Twitch while I was watching! Lol

Quoted from Neal_W:There is a guy on twitch currently trying to break the Guinness Book record for longest continuous pinball play. (currently 48hrs on Beatles) He has a STh LE and a backup STh LE for playing on and will be attempting 50hrs with 5min/hr breaks that he can bank, etc.
