Hey all. Starting this because the other stranger things thread has a TON of posts and it’s difficult to find posts about fixes.

Anyways... what are people doing to address

*the mouth shot. Should it have more or less pitch to successfully hit?

*orbits hitting slings OR opposite flipper. Are people simply bending the guides?

*gates. Have seen multiple people say the one-way gate that comes out from demogorgan is falling off consistently. what are people doing to fix this?

*ball lock. White lock post is flying out of the plunger. I have turned mine on to virtual lock for the time being.

Thanks for any advice/solutions!

Quoted from Yelobird:

Dimples? Lolol

lol dimples are what they are at this point. Sucks to see for the first few weeks however over time they do seem to all flatten out and look flat.

Quoted from pinballkyle:

Is it just the screws coming loose for the ball gate? Mine hasn’t arrived yet but if it’s just the screws maybe some blue lock tite?

unfortunately no, its more the actual swinging gate falling off. On ours it catches a washer, gets stuck in a weird position, then a ball impact knocks it off. Stern is sending me a new gate. Not sure if the wrong gate was installed to be honest. Luckily Stern has amazing service and they are helping/know how frustrating this is for us.

Quoted from tiesmasc:

@dg_amuse posted a fix for the demogorgon shot at https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/stern-stranger-things/page/68#post-5385952
I can vouch for this fix as prior it was impossible (<5%) to hit on purpose and now it is very doable (>75%). Made the game feel much more compelling and rewarding (versus feeling like you were being cheated and getting frustrated).

Thank you!
