I know, that’s what I’m saying, it sucks to have to sell something your just bought. That was more of a shake my head in disbelief chuckle about the whole situation.

#302 3 years ago

I’m looking forward to see what Stern puts out besides the art blades. Hopefully we won’t have to wait almost a year for a topper but I’m guessing that will be the case.

#303 3 years ago

Just got our TMNT PRO!!

I’m curious to see what they’ll do for a shooter rod too. An ooze canister for a topper or shooter rod could be cool.

#305 3 years ago

Anyone selling any TMNT colored plastic protectors yet?

nice pin lineup, though Ive never played IM. I have a deadpool premium, SW comic premium and now a tmnt LE whenever it comes.

#307 3 years ago
Quoted from daveyvandy:

Off and on pics attached. Sorry I didn't set the same exposure, but you get the idea. I tied GI into the apron spotlights and the flashers into the big red one on the left.
[quoted image][quoted image]

Man is that candy stripping on the left ramp? I hate that look. Or is it just the pic?

#308 3 years ago

I want that whole lineup!

That's just the reflection caused by the pin stadiums. It actually does not show up in person on that ramp, just kind of an artifact of taking the photo at a certain angle with a certain exposure I guess. You can also dial in the LEDs a little differently to make it go away. I always put mine at 100% warm white white for the GI to give the best feeling for my eyes. But I'm colorblind, so you can't use me as a good reference lol.

Ok so you can’t see that striping in person? Many games suffer from that striping so wanted to double check

Go with the pin stadium "Omegas" you wont have any of that striping. Here is a pic of them on and off.

Y’all trying to convince your self the pro is the best option. You crazy, I’ve played both and the premium/LE is the way to go. Diverter is cool and useful, the van is kick ass and a fun shot, light show is way better, I was really shocked how much I like the Krang toy. I thought it was lame but in person it’s kick ass. Only negative for premium is the diverter does cover some play field and can block view. Nothing terrible just an observation. The LE is the best art package. I’ll coat the speaker panel, coin door and such soon. Blue looks way more saturated for some reason on my phone than in person.

I’m glad you’re excited but the Pro has the same light show.

Quoted from daveyvandy:

The NECA Krang fits, and he is fabulous!
I used small pieces of clear plastic mounting tape to secure his feet.
[quoted image][quoted image]

Actually think the Neca Krang looks better than the premium/le Krang. Ordered the shredder Krang combo. Thanks daveyvandy !

Waiting for the game to arrive to test fit and function. Pro owners won’t be disappointed!

The topper is fun as was the creation journey your post took us on. Well done.

#324 3 years ago

yeah I'll save close to 3k+ and go pro vs LE and not even think twice. One of the clearest pro decisions in recent memory.

And you won’t lose 1k off the bat right away.

You buy a pro,

You didn't buy TMNT

#327 3 years ago

Can't wait til I get my LE. Already have my pro. Waiting to get my premium. I bought all 3, but they will be at different locations.

#328 3 years ago

That’s dedication right there!

Quoted from delt31:

You have a lot of experience trading pins. What do you think the difference will be in six-nine months selling a nib tmnt pro, premium, or le? Does it matter which one you get if that delta is relatively the same?

What is the material you used for the background ? I see it’s a fabric, but how did you get that brick print on it ?? I get how you spray painted it,great work!, but you didn’t paint those bricks right? Is that just the printer material ?

3 pins, 4 turtles

Can’t wait to see your handiwork on this one! Think you can get a good match?

Also: how’d you get your LE so soon?!

#334 3 years ago
Quoted from ectobar:

3 pins, 4 turtles
Just sayin

Right...I would buy 4 was available... I'm a turtles nut, have 3 have turtles tattoos.. some reason comes in 3 and not 4...lol

#335 3 years ago

Pro lighting and LE lighting is the same on TMNT?

#336 3 years ago
Quoted from frankmac:

Pro lighting and LE lighting is the same on TMNT?

Yes, they are the same on the matrix for controlled and GI RGB LEDs for all three models.

#337 3 years ago

Same as LE? Makes sense now. The light show on the TMNt Pro is the best I’ve ever seen on a Pro level.

Let’s see those TMNT tattoos! Here is mine.

Can you give us little sneak peak or hints?

#341 3 years ago
Quoted from ectobar:

You didn't buy TMNT

Ha! Definitely a joke. Now buying a pro JP not being JP I totally get.

As for trading a lot of pins - although I do plan on holding onto turtles longer bc it's one of my fav themes it's all about where else I can spend that money and let me tell you.....3k is a lot of money that can go into another purchase.

Think about this. Would you rather have a 3k or less pin and a pro or just a LE? Not only is the first choice more logical, financially it's a no brainier.

#342 3 years ago
Quoted from djWHEAT:

Who do you get your pins from? Hoping to get an email today from my distrib (CDC in Omaha). Also waiting on an LE.

flip n out. I use to use Orange County in CA, but he was too slow to reply to my questions. There’s a reason why I don’t use in state distributors, I’ll let you guess, maybe to do with $$$

#343 3 years ago
Quoted from jurulz:

Can you give us little sneak peak or hints?

Well, not ready to show anything, but what I will say is that we will be starting with a couple of mods that the LE has that the pro doesn’t.

Quoted from Multiballmaniac1:

You’re the best in mods. Also ships out in a timely fashion.

I appreciate that, but there are some pretty good mod makers out there that are better than me, we just try to give a good overall experience from communication to shipping to support, etc. I’m literally always available unless I’m asleep.

#344 3 years ago

Going to a local venue to see the Pro today. Haven’t heard about my Pro yet. I expect I’ll get it in the next batch.

#345 3 years ago

All the club threads always turn into le/prem vs pro fights! Were all in this together! I bought an LE but I really considered the pro for a while and I have never purchased a Pro before. It does look more loaded than past pros which is great. And to tell you the truth an 8 ball mb is just going to be weird! Were almost at Apollo 13.

#346 3 years ago

It is strange. Just get what cha want. No need to justify it in any way. These are all stupid financial decisions. Haha

#347 3 years ago

Can stern please just start on the Premiums. I want to see some behind the scene photos of my new machine so can show my daughter a picture of the assembly line and say the one in the photo is hers.

#348 3 years ago

For the love of all that is good in pinball please change the T-molding on the premium to match the pro color! Anyone have a vid how to change that out?

#349 3 years ago

so if everyone in here were billionaires, there would be some of you that would still buy the pro strictly based on value?

#350 3 years ago
Quoted from cleanandlevel:

Yes, I have the ability to buy the LE currently but it doesn't seem like a very good value to me.

Some people prefer the Pro to Prem/LE on many models. Just research TWD or GOT.
