Quoted from Pinterest:So who is hoarding an extra CPR Playfield they should sell to me? <evil grin>
Looking for one as well. Can't believe with the demand CPR/PPS won't re-run these (and plastics too!)

How many could use a new set of plastics for their FP?
I'm about to start the restoration on mine, and would love a new set (without giving up kidney and a few other body parts). I contacted Rick at PPS a few months ago and he said he'd consider it, but didn't think the demand was really there (or people would say they want them, but then when made no one would order). With 17,410 made, and it gaining some popularity lately, you'd think the demand would be there (similarly for backglasses and playfields).

Quoted from Walamab:I ordered my plastics set last week and have had zero communication from CPR. Is that normal? I followed their ordering procedure for Paypal to the letter and received a transfer confirmation from Paypal. Do I just expect the package to show up "eventually"? Anyone have experience with this? I know its coming from Canada but I would expect something saying "we got your order".
I ordered a set on 11/9 and received an e-mail from both PayPal and UPS when they shipped with a tracking number.

Quoted from firefighter:Turned my Firepower on and the left eject hole coil energizes right away. I checked the wiring and the out hole switch and all is fine there. I pulled the 2J11 connector and the coil doesn't energize. I did try and changed out the coil and still the same. I'm guessing that the Q21 TIP 122 needs to be replaced unless someone else has a better idea.
Pull the board and test the transistor - symptoms suggest it’s bad.
Quoted from Aniraf:Can anyone tell me where I would buy a backglass lift bar for this game? Also, do your games have trim around the back glass? If so, which trim is used?

Quoted from mrm_4:I stole this picture from a site selling Mylar stickers.
Does anyone have a vectored pdf of this so I can print it on water slide for a resto?[quoted image]
Don't have a vector file, but I have a set of PPS decals if you'd rather go that route:
Quoted from mrm_4:Can you clearcoat those?
I’m not sure you can... could be wrong.
Pretty sure you can, that was my plan before I found a repro playfield for mine.

Quoted from mof:Did you make a restore thread for that? That cabinet and cabinet art looks amazing.
-mof
I did not - can take some more pictures and post them tho. Was a complete restore - rebuilt cabinet with the alternate artwork, new backglass, new playfield, playfield parts, powdercoating, etc. Definitely a labor of love......
