Quoted from ChrisLIX:Will I be officially owner of my Mando Pro pin one day??
Ordered in May with deposite, firstly, have been told June (but priority was for operators), then have been told August, then October.. I start to think it will be postponed again!!
This will be my 4th pin but my first NIB. This is definitely torture arghhh!
Hope to receive good news soon.. anyone received a pro recently?
Quoted from mbrave77:Im in same boat with my premium. I had asked months in advance for LE but just missed apparantly and was suppossed to be early Premium. And I still dont have it. My godzilla premium will prob come before!
The good news is Mando is definitely worth the wait and by the time you get yours a couple more code updates will have dropped.
Seems stern are the ones prioritising the new title builds and pushing back older titles, I’ve had a deadpool premium on order since feb!

Unfortunately it sounds like Godzilla production is pushed out, too, according the the FlipnOut podcast. Supply chain issues are biting real hard right now.
Slowly adding stuff to my Pro. Added the factory Stern wire forms but I still have to chop off the plate that would connect the third wire form on the Prem/LE models. I’ll get around to it

I bought one a while back. Wasn't sure if I was going to like it on the game so haven't installed it yet. After seeing the pic, I think it looks great. Thanks for posting.

You’re very welcome!! I agree, wasn’t sure at first either but now I’m glad I did!

Tilt Graphics. Well done and seems to hold up well with gameplay on my machine.

Yeah I’m really impressed, great way to put her in the game where she belongs!
Removed all the excess plastics, no ball hang ups or issue in over 50 games, game looks a lot better for it.

Something I have been thinking over and over is resizing the plates so everything lines up. Done a little edit on the right hand side plate to show what I mean.

I had this same metal card idea ... Buddy in the neighborhood has the laser ... But he wasn't interested in helping .

I may offer them for sale just working it out this end.
Anyone have the retrofurbs or wizard side blades installed that can post a photo?
Both look better than Sterns to me
Quoted from tilt-master:Sorry if this was mentioned somewhere in this thread. Did anyone else order a Stern shooter rod and it looks like a rusty ball with a bad paint job?

Someone else did a few pages back. I’ve watched both seasons, much of season one twice, and I don’t remember the nob looking that rusty.

Yeah I got mine Monday, and it looks the same. I dig it. Looks great in my opinion.

@Xaqery,
I'm digging the 0.98 game code. I have a few suggestions:
Sometimes, when the foundry starts or the Jetpack multiball mode starts, the main theme is still playing, it is a sound priority issue?
It would be very cool if on the main screen, we had some little thumbnails on the right of the screen in order to indicate the progression/completion in Hunter, Ambush and Scope mini modes.
Thanks for your excellent work!

Wiz blades are awesome. I love how they match and extend the playfield in the back corners.

Go with wizmod, often retros are lazy and the art doesn’t match the game, wiz does a great job of trying to get his products to match the games factory art.
Quoted from Enron64:Yeah I got mine Monday, and it looks the same. I dig it. Looks great in my opinion.
Received mine today, I second that. Corrosion and scratches give to it an authentic feel. It's quite heavy in hand for a shooter rod.

A good point was made by you guys, to wait for the 1.00 game code in case the Mando rules change between now and then.

Yeah I wouldn’t do anything until 1.0 at least, as the rules have already changed compared to the original rule cards that came with the game. Razorcrest hurry up, Dank farrik are not on the current rule cards and there are more rule changes and additions hopefully coming.

Weird my mini playfield and grogu lamps came with metal versions of those from factory.

Me too, but not suffisant.

If your really struggling a little hot glue works perfectly, used that on my Star Trek slingshot flashers and it’s never failed.
Quoted from Peanuts:Is it a typo in the operation manual or the topper will have a screen/projector?

I asked ZMeny the same question and he dodged it, so it’s basically a confirmed rumor at this point. Tell your friends.
Also I heard a rumor that Werner Herzog himself is going to make a surprise guest appearance at Expo to reveal the topper during the Stern panel.

Projector, wonder what that could be? The only thing I can think of is a Bounty HoloPuck.
Well got my side armor, just need the machine now. Hopefully it'll be here before the end of the year.
Anyone else having issues with Ice Spider multi ball on .98 code (premium)? Balls will go up the left ramp and the diverter will catch them but not release until about 30 seconds later.
Once all the balls drain to the trough, the game still thinks I’m in a multi ball. No ball search at all either. I have to tilt the game in order to get to the next ball.

No issues here and I’ve been running .98 for at least 50 games.

Good to know. Thanks for the feedback.
I’ve put about that many on .98 as well and this just started happening. It only happens in Ice Spider which makes me think it’s just a code problem but then again…if it was a code issue why is it just now popping up after several games. Very weird. I’ll send the video I have to Stern support and hopefully they can address.

Could this be a switch that is not registering?
Quoted from crujones4life:I'm skipping updates till we get without any weirdness.
Zero issues here dude, the foundry bug doesn’t seem to be a bug you just need to hold for 2secs to select your choice. I have not noticed any issues with .98

We have been playing our Mando LE for months now with not one loose LED, including the Grogu spotlight on top of the foundry. I adjusted the factory metal retainer before we played a game and no issues.

I have noticed this as well. Does holding both flippers hurry it up?
Quoted from Indusguys:Could this be a switch that is not registering?
I was wondering that also but this only happens with Ice Spider. Would switch registrations be particular to modes?
Quoted from KozMckPinball:I have noticed this as well. Does holding both flippers hurry it up?
I don’t believe so. It’s as though the game freezes on Ice Spider and will not move forward. I’ve only had this happen a couple of times but it’s a game breaker.
Quoted from Indusguys:Could this be a switch that is not registering?
I took the glass off and ran a coil and switch test and everything is working fine. Played a game with glass off to get to Ice Spider and had no issues. Ice Spider played as it should.
Quoted from OriginalFresh:Would switch registrations be particular to modes?
Even if they were, you would still be able to test the switches themselves in the switch test menu.
Can you reproduce the problem 100% of the time if you take the glass off and manually trigger the sequence of events that cause your issue?
Sorry, posted that without reading the entire thread first.
Most of the code issues in Mando seem to pop up when modes are stacked, almost as if the node bus is getting saturated or something crazy. I think once the “final” rule set is in place, that’ll be the time they make one final pass and clear out the bug tracker at the end of the dev cycle.
Okay, I give up... What am I doing wrong? I'm trying to upgrade my Mando pro to the new code and just can't get it to do it. I have downloaded the files from Stern onto a USB stick. The files are unzipped on the stick but the machine does not acknowledge anything different when it boots. I am currently using the port at cn9 but I've tried others as well. I have tried reloading the files from Stern but still nothing. Short of just banging on the monitor I'm not sure what else to do. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
