Any suggestions on where to get the mylar folks are talking about as a temp fix? Does it come off cleanly later once a final fix is provided or is it stuck forever?

My very first game on my premium did this. Thought it was a bad sign given what was already being discussed with the scoop. I took the glass off and pushed the ball down like you said. If you look at the lower side of the orbit you’ll see there are two separate metal rails. On my machine those two rails are not aligned where they go into the wood. Seems the ball was traveling along one then hit the other and popped up where it wedged between the plastics. Didn’t see any good way to fix it other than to try bending the rails so that they were better aligned, but I didn’t want to start disassembling the game having just got it. So I’ve played it a couple hundred times since then, and it has never happened again. Hoping it was some weird cosmic radiation that never happens again

Where can I order the MRS being talked about? Mine is registering probably less than 20% of the time during play. Seemed like it was pretty good when I first got it, but definitely not good now.

Wanted to add my experience to this. I've purchased 6 NIB Stern pins since 2020. I was nervous about the stated warranty, but I decided the risk was worth the reward. I've had small to major issues with every machine. The small stuff I was able to take care of myself, often using advice from the Pinside forums. I've actually enjoyed the minor maintenance and repair work as I got to learn new things. For the bigger stuff I have worked with Stern support. They have always come through. For AIQ I ended up having to replace the entire Marvel loop habit rail, which Stern sent no charge. My brother-in-law had issues with his Iron Maiden where the spoon switch broke so that you couldn't interact with the captive ball. They sent a replacement no charge. Today my Rush scoop protector kit showed up on its own without me having to ask for it. No charge. In the end, pinball machines are complex pieces of machinery. Entropy is real. Yes they require care and maintenance, but when the issues have been related to quality, Stern hasn't let me down. I'm sure that's not been the case for everyone, but they have my vote of confidence.

Can someone tell me what each of the three lights on the time machine mean? I can’t seem to find it anywhere.

Anyone that buys a lot from Marco know whether a topper being “in stock” means in stock or just pre-order?

Great. Thanks. Placed my order as well.

Finally made the billion point club!! Love this game.

If I remember correctly, I just leaned it against a wall (front edge on floor) with a towel on the back edge to avoid scratching the wall.
