Got my LE. What an awesome game. I think it's my favorite Dwight coded game for sure. Layout is awesome, Brian Eddy crushed it vs Stranger Things IMO! The overall package is great. The sounds, music (Jetpack MB is so epic), etc is so good.

Couple complaints. I think the Child/Baby Yoda integration could have been more thoughtful. I don't know, it just feels a bit weak with the magnet that randomly flings the ball to an inlane. Would have been cool to see his floating car seat thing open up and do something instead, or have it move and do something.

I'm having the typical switch error people have mentioned here (likely code related) and bounce outs front the upper playfield gate mech or whatever you call it. Turned power down on right flipper and put a piece of foam and it's helped a lot.

The main issue I'm seeing is literally 60-70% of all plunges that hit the diverter post end up going on the 'D' of the CHILD inlanes and it then goes SDTM. I think this area could have been designed better. Has anyone done anything to lesson that from occurring? It's pretty frustrating when a SDTM occurs back to back.

Other than that it's an excellent game, and way better than other Star Wars pins I've had. Great job Stern!! Playfield and everything is perfect.

Quoted from jaycbarnett:

Re: plunges STDM...thank goodness I'm not alone in this! I was about ready to throw it on Pinside marketplace, I love it but it's really being a jerk to me with drains. Full disclosure, it got worse when I put my default translucent Titans in.
I got it dead level L-R and tried a bunch of slopes from 6.5 - 7. Nothing helped.
Here's what fixed it for me, the plastics between the lanes have a small ring on top and larger on bottom (3/16 and 5/16, I believe). I put a larger one on the tops of both the one it hits first (between H and I) and the last one on the right in case it exists right. I figured that it may change the trajectories just enough.
I'm now getting more reasonable plunges...most dropping through a lane. More importantly, the ones that exit right and come down the middle are hitting my right flipper.
The rest of the machine is still being jerky tho. LOL

Thanks, going to try this. No fun plunging and getting SDTMs more than half the time lol

I ended up removing the rubbers on 2 of the CHILD inlanes. This really helped with the ball bouncing off them from a plunge and going SDTM. It essentially eliminated it from happening. Give that a shot if you have a similar issue with yours.

The rejects off the plastic post from the right orbit suck though. The fix for my MET was a metal post, hopefully someone can experiment with replacing the plastic one with a metal post so we know what part to buy. Pretty crazy how during all of Stern's playtesting they didn't think to correct that obvious flaw.
