So excited to finally join this club. Just bought my distributors last pro and it will be here on friday. Does anyone in here have any leads on pro uv kit. My distributor has me down for one in the next couple weeks but told me to reach out on here just in case stern drops the ball again and pushes them back farther.

Quoted from Jediturtle:

Pro Tip (no pun intended): Do not get the pro UV kit...get the premium one. Free metal apron upgrade! Toss a couple LEDs of your choice under the apron to light up the windows (if you want) and you're golden. It's like a double mod for the price of one.

Thank you didnt know they where interchangeable

Quoted from BallyKISS1978:

Got BS mode once, don’t even know how I did it TBH. Still haven’t received my topper yet

I have over 100 games on mine and I have not yet once gotten it. I wish there was a adjustment to make it more often

#11553 2 years ago
Quoted from Krupps4:

I get it. I was just able to track one down and place an order as well. With that being said, I don’t know how Stern can include the UV paint or whatever on every pin but not have a UV kit for every owner that wants one. Something about that does seem right since the UV is “pre-installed” so to speak. Seems a lot different than something like a topper that is just a pure add on.

I couldn't agree more. They create this FOMO and we are the ones as their customers that suffer and wait when we all know they could make enough for all of us owners and actually should have put it on every single game as it's part of the experience. I had too wait 3 months for this kit alone.

#11556 2 years ago

It's a beginning of DLC and sadly I dont agree with it all but I adore this game and had to have it for mine

About to rejoin this wonderful club. Trading my elvira house of horrors for a stranger things premium plus 1k cash. Do yall feel this is a good trade for me

#13985 2 years ago
Quoted from Happy81724:

Does the stranger things have the uv kit and other mods? It seems good if it does

Oh yes, topper,uv kit, shooter rod, side art and side rails

#13987 2 years ago
Quoted from Happy81724:

That are giving you 1k plus stranger things prem?

Yes bc my elvira is so nice and has all the mods too.

#14061 2 years ago

Have put about 50 games on my premium in the past 2 days and all I can say is WOW. it's a major difference between the pro and premium and this is probably one of the few games that you have to get the premium as it's a complete game changer with the swipe a ball feature and tk lock and ofcourse the projector. I do find myself draining more than I did on my pro as I'm looking at the cool animations on the targets. But I'm sure that will subside as time marches on. So grateful to finally have this baby in my collection. Now all I need is insider connected.

Quoted from SonOfaDiddly:

trying to get to 100 million ball 1 i'd try to do the combo and the multiball right away as they're both pretty simple and add to the bonus on every ball. if you can lock a ball or two on the backglass during TK multiball- something i started trying to do recently so that TK multiball isn't such a sub-100 million waste of time- you could probably get that 100 million on the first ball but i'd be trying to do it with modes, for sure, not only for the points but for the bonus. burn it back is a tough shot for me to hit more than 3 or 4 times consecutively because of the spin that builds up after consecutive shots. in fact, the whole right side of the table are not really any gimme shots, ymmv of course
our STh pingolf goal was 'start TK multiball' so now everyone in league smashes away at the left ramp targets on their first ball before the ball saver expires
also, wow, to the guy above me, you have the full gamut of games from those i love to those i loathe sitting in that one picture talk about polar opposites

Will definitely try that next game. And thanks. I absolutely love both of them and don't agree with either of the hate they recieved

#14065 2 years ago
Quoted from SLRage:

Can’t wait for my Halloween Game to show up!!

You will absolutely love it. It is the most unique game I have ever played much less had the honor of owning. It is a absolute blast.

#14082 2 years ago
Quoted from SonOfaDiddly:

i'm never sure how to criticize a thing like a pinball because it's so emotional and personal but man i just do not agree on Halloween. it doesn't even function properly at the moment, what with the skillshot bug, and on top of that, the whole game is on the LCD which i hate looking up at
*shrug* not trying to be a dick but man. Halloween, LoV, Rush- i've got a dozen plays on each and these are bad layouts and games to me

Did you play Halloween in a home or location ?

#14085 2 years ago
Quoted from SonOfaDiddly:

the last time i played- and it has admittedly been a month or so- hitting the right side skill shot at the drop target off a plunge would cause you to have to restart the game to be able to continue to play it

played it on location at AYCE Gogi a few times and at INDiSC as well. these are well cared for machines. i have specific complaints but this isn't really the thread for it

Yes try it in a dark home environment when you can truly feel the character of this game and you will see why so many love it. Bc I couldn't see in a location setting that I wouldn't get the same feeling I do. It is by far my most loved game in my collection when people come over as it's so different and unique. That's coming from pinheads and newbies and they always migrate to stranger things and Halloween and poor Godzilla never gets played by company

Just saw that stranger things is ranked #14. Loving that this game is finally getting the respect it deserves. Hopefully in time it will get into the top 10 as I personally feel it deserves it with all the innovative features it has.

#14190 2 years ago
Quoted from swampfire:

Yeah, but it’s strange to see the Pro rated almost a full point lower. To my mind, the Pro is every bit as great as the others.

Yeah but the pro is so lacking in innovation when it comes to features. I have owned a pro and absolutely loved it but sold it bc I had too have the premium as it is a absolute game changer. The layout is the same though but that tk lock and projector is stunning.

#14192 2 years ago
Quoted from Utesichiban:

All of that aside, it is essentially the same game and the disparity in ratings between the models doesn't make much sense.
I have a friend nearby that has had a pro for 4 months that acquired a premium last week. He told me after a couple of days of premium play the difference in price isn't justfied and that the pro is the way to go. Everyone has a different opinion on the subject.
The reality is it is a very good game across the board.

I completely agree they are both amazing games. Just me personally I love the premium more but that doesn't mean the Pro isn't a amazing game as well.
