Quoted from dougPDX:

I'm thinking about putting down a deposit on this machine - any insights on the game that anyone can offer? It's so rare, and therefore I won't be able to play it before dropped $11,500... Looks really awesome! I would really tie my game room together...

I agree with the statements here it’s fantastic, if you love the movie it’s even better. I went out of my way to find one so I am the second owner. I was able to play it locally on route before finding one in the marketplace. I did pay a premium however to have it now. I still think the lead time on some of these is about eight months or so if ordering new from cointaker.

I did take some time to get it dialed in and has its quirks. I’ve only had this happen a few times but sometimes it’ll drain a ball or it’ll enter a scoop and just pretend the ball isn’t there or in play. Ball searches do not find it and you simply have to shut the machine off and turn it back on again I think this has been discussed in some of the previous threads I don’t think there’s an answer for it yet. Also seems like it’s hard on balls but this is minor vs. fun factor. Could have something to do with the scoops and or subway underneath.

Still extremely fun pin with great clips and lines from the movie.

Quoted from fossmin:

Has anyone come up with a better fitting lockdown bar for this game? Seems to be about 1/4 inch too wide on each side.

I was wondering the same? I can almost slip a finger through on the front of the bar seems like a lot of overhang. My others aren’t like this maybe I’m missing an adjustment or something?

#1885 3 years ago
Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:

So what do Owners think the game is worth? Most physical issues are being resolved and the much needed software update is in the works.
Currently being sold for $12.5k and often seen in marketplace for $15k. A few ads offer extras and selling price of $17k. Past sales before the reset were $20-25k. If you wanted to buy a TBL today, how much would you be willing to pay?
I am close to rationalizing the $12.5k amount given it is a dream theme. Not sure it is worth that otherwise.

I think the worth of the machine varies depending on owner. I did not want to wait. Love the movie so we love the theme I paid more to have it now. Not quite 15,000.

Starry lit apron beauty, thanks Barry!
[quoted image]

Wondering when you ordered this? I did about 3 weeks ago…still awaiting arrival dude.

#2140 2 years ago

Hey dudes, I might be late to the party but does anybody have any ideas in regards to this? Am I buying a USB keyboard to get this to go away?

Haven’t played the game in about a month and haven’t touched anything it seems like it has a mind of its own and this is what I get when I play tonight. New shit has come to light: Rensh

#2143 2 years ago
Quoted from cpr9999:

How to deal with this is posted in this thread.

I know how to search, just wondering if anyone had a quick solution. What post number roughly?

#2144 2 years ago
Quoted from timlah79:

I haven't run into this but could only find steps from ubuntu experts themselves: https://itsfoss.com/how-to-fix-system-program-problem-detected-ubuntu/
Is there a post in this thread that gives options besides having someone plug in a keyboard and dig into the system? Seems like there should be an in game resolution for this.

This would be handy! Not super familiar with Linux or entering commands I’m out of my element!

#2147 2 years ago
Quoted from Rensh:

Made a FAQ on this:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/va6ipxwx7x8mt4s/System%20error%20pop-up%20FAQ.pdf?dl=0
I have gathered all my FAQ’s in 1 document 128 pages which I expect to release this weekend. So than it will be one link always containing all info-knowledge I have.

Very helpful thank you very much for this I’ll give it a go later today.

#2149 2 years ago

Next dumb question…What USB port can I use for the keyboard?

#2151 2 years ago

This worked flawlessly thanks everyone again! I’d be screwed without Pinside knowledge. Huge resource!

#2164 2 years ago
Quoted from PinheadEDM:

I agree, I have both games. [quoted image][quoted image]

I agree wholeheartedly! Get them both I also am in this camp.

Quoted from MK6PIN:

Man does that look great!!! ( can't help but get excited to see my game sometime in the future!!)
( huge fan of aprons that compliment the game.. )

It really does tie the game together. Honestly the box looked like it went to Iraq and back I think I ordered it in April. I just received it the second week of July but well worth the wait and thanks to Rensh and Barry at Dutch, they have always been very responsive and helpful.

Quoted from PinheadEDM:

Ordered the chrome hinges, flipper buttons chrome and the launch button chrome plus the chrome glass channel. Your tbl looking sweet

Where did you get these from?

#2675 2 years ago

Please add me as well!

#2708 2 years ago
Quoted from ulmpharmd:

Does anyone’s game vibrate aggressively on ball launch and other heavy bass notes? Though I’d ask before I started digging..

I haven't really noticed the heavy bass so much but there is definitely vibration/sound upon ball launch. I'm thinking at least that portion is normal.

Merry Christmas and thanks for all you do to keep this game evolving!

#3148 2 years ago
Quoted from ezatnova:

Interesting. I thought there was a TP Link usb in the top area of the board and it was ready to go but not activated in the current code.

Rensh can you verify, are wifi updates possible with TBL?

Quoted from Capn12:

I certainly hate seeing it, being on the 'list' still for a while more, but....what can we do? It sucks balls, but it is what it is.

Nothing it is what it is for the time being. like any hobby it has its costs. It's a bummer man!

My buddy just gave me this Kahlua Neon sign. Decided to use it as a sort of topper. I hung it on the wall right behind the game and I think it looks pretty good.[quoted image][quoted image]

I don't hate it man!

Quoted from ArcadeBar:

Sure it’s not the exact same idea but for less than one globall you can get 4 of these and use both the balls and pins, just print the Brunswick logo on clear stickers. If your guests complain how they look then they need another caucasion.[quoted image]

I use these as a keychain for the key in the coin door

Mine is going in now... just had to delete a couple of the old versions to make room because it said hard drive space was limited.

Quoted from Rensh:

I saw some discussion on the starry lit apron
Made a small video. Very hard to capture on video. Used iPhone 13. Real life is better.
Think this video shows it’s really a lot more as just an apron with some leds under it. It’s tied into to the code and makes a real wow-factor.
Just uploaded it so give YouTube some time to improve the picture

I have one and it's definitely worth the upgrade. Beautiful in person as Rensh says.

question for those with starry apron -
looks really nice, worth the $600 to get one?</blockquoTE

question for those with starry apron -

I have one on mine, looks really nice and seems to integrate well with the pin. Adds to the show IMHO. It's well done but as far as 600.00 goes I guess it was worth it to me to pull the trigger on it.

Are there any magnets in TBL? (thinking not, but...)
Or am I free to use Ninja Chrome balls?

Quoted from pinballslave:

Is there some kind of trick/knack to getting the backglass/light out and back in? I lifted it up to try and take it out, but it didn't come up quite enough to clear the holder bar on top of the speaker/display panel... I gave it a bit more force, and it came out... I wasn't expecting there to be a cable attached to the back of it, so then I didn't know what to do with it because I was expecting to be able to put it on the floor... I then tried to put it back in, but it wouldn't fit!! I was pushing quite hard, but didn't want to break it... so I laid it down gently on the playfield (the glass was off) and thought I'd check in here for some advice before I take it further...
[quoted image]

I think you can unplug that cable that goes to the back glass. That's what I do on mine anyway unless they have changed something.

I love Liors stuff. This time though no go and I think you can get a real toilet for that price!

It will be right out after his GnR topper.

Forgot all about the GnR topper he was working on. So much time went by so did the game...it went bye bye.
