Agree put some clear on it. That is not a heavy travelled area for the ball. Either cliffy or shooterlane protector will do enough.

I would like to change some videos like that one form the foundry, it seems so poor quality in the dark areas. Aslo would like to replace the extra ball scene with the one where luke enters. I love seeing luke, they say he's in the game but I have not reached that point.

I know Gerorge Gomez is aware of this. It has been communicated to him personally. See what can be done.

The Razorcrest isn't the newest ship in the galaxy. So the distressed look is intended. I like it.

Same with mine, some dust, cleaned and keep playing. Keep an eye on that.

Don't know, black dust

LE so early build probably

The shooter rod needs to be rusty. The razorcrest ain't exactly the newest ship in the galaxy.

Nope my own

I used some files from thingiverse. Check stalagmites and you get various ones. I just scaled them and printed a lot.

This is correct.

That is an Pro exclusive then cause my LE does not have a sticker.

These are great to print yourself. Painting is just fun. The speeder bike is also free on thingiverse and there are some real good ones for a few bucks. If you are into 3d printing this is great to do yourself.

The only thing that is in my eyes a problem is that the speeder bike is clearly this version: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4625615

It is clearly stated when using this file from thingiverse not to sell. - You are not allowed to copy or distribute them in any way. You are not allowed to sell them or parts you printed from them or models you build with the use of this files.

I understand printing this model and painting this is a lot of work, for which a fee is in place, but please state the source of your model and keep with the terms of the designer. Tip the designer or agree with him/her.

Sorry to bring this up but I see a lot of designs abused by others who make a lot of cash, which is not the way.

Thanks for the explanation. Again as I said - I understand printing this model and painting this is a lot of work, for which a fee is in place.
We had some issues in this hobby before with people designing/printing/building mods and even complete pinballs without proper licensing, burning the community.

So good luck with your mods, and great to hear the designer is paid.

Owning Mando and played Godzilla. Mando is total immersed with the series. The call outs, music, all just is very well integrated. The rules are understandable and can be made, not easy but achievable. I owned Keith Elwin games before and rules and shots are hard. Mando most shots are ok, just some are harder. Godzilla is a real good shooter, the upperloop is very good to do, better than shots on JP. The building is nice, the magna grab is real good, the ramps are awesome for the flow, the movie clips are campy. All in all a very good machine, but for me the theme is not a hit. Godzilla is not in my top 10 list of great movies/franchises. So the music and call outs are not for me. The in game music is even repetative, and the radio voice is getting boring after many games. Rules for Godzilla I do not know to well. But knowing Keith it will be a players ruleset so not getting any mode progression when draining, hence mini wizards are far away on a 3 or 4 ball game. Mando with the foundry also really helps to progress through the game. Then there are the few suprises in Mando like Ambush, Dank Farik, and just all the fantastic movie clips. Only thing to wish for is a real great topper, like blackknight for this title. Polish the code and bring Luke more to the achievable modes, or make the final wizard mode a challenge mode in the start menu. Oh the coop and impossible play is really nice with friends. That all including the price increase on Godzilla and the insder connect which I am not going to use, makes Mando the theme for me. But try to play them first for your own assessment.

Still hipe for something on the encounter. That is just so hard for me. The rest you can get, but encounters, maybe a setting to set for yourself to keep in the encounter without playing the bonusround each time.

Love these unboxing, even if you are late to the party. Such a great looking machine. Too bad it only got the stage for 3 months, now Godzilla is the talk of the town. Hope Mando gets some solid code updates to make it an epic game.

Lower the slingshot strenght. That really helps, also I did lower both posts on the outlanes. Indeed some work but ok to do on this machine.

Yes it would be great if you reach level one you at least get the movie from that one, also with level 2 and maybe a random one when you reach the bonus level. I really like this new way of encounters but indeed also loved the movie scenes.

This code really brings out the best in this game. Really like the flow and ambush mode now.

Ah Hot Toys and the Mandalorian. I started with the awesome speeder bike, and now I have a new expensive hobby

No that has been teased a long time, now the date is 25 May. Really waiting on the topper.

it seems that the switch in the horseshoe loop does not always register the shot if it is too fast. You can adjust the switch a bit but a reed switch (magnetic) seems to do the trick better. I had some rejects on that shot but manage it still to a minimum.

From the Stern Mando Rule Sheet:

AMBUSH
This mini-wizard mode can be quite lucrative or it can award very little.
It is all about a value that can be locked in and then collected on the right ramp. You can build
the value and can keep it going as long as you want. Then you can collect it on the ramp when
you are ready

Once started, there are two stages: white and blue. It begins on the white stage.
During the white stage -
• The value is counting down and can be stopped (not collected) on the right scoop
(u-turn on the PRO).
○ Once shot the mode will move to the blue stage.
• All other shots except the right ramp will be lit white. Shooting any of them will add time
and points to the value counting down.
During the blue stage -
• The right ramp is lit to collect the value and end the mode.
• All other shots except the u-turn are lit blue.
• You have two options.
○ Collect the value on the ramp and end the mode.
○ Shoot any blue shot to add to the value and move back to the white stage where
the value will start counting down but can be increased.
The mode can be quick, 2 shots, or it can go on as long as you want.

SCORE POTENTIAL - Try to get the 2X RAMP targets going and as many playfield multipliers
going as possible before collecting AMBUSH.

So shooting the other shots before the right ramp will increase the value. So there is a risk - reward. I do not know the values you get per shot made.

Isn't that with all kinds of things. In the beginning it is awesome, after a while just annoying or just goes unnoticed, the orb in Guardians, the intro from GnR even the trex in JP. In the beginning you want to see it all and after a while you skip all movies and stuf just to play. I keep my moving Grogu in see how long it will last.

Mando can be hard, but for me it isn't. The shots just click, it toke some time to get mine dailed in. I certainly do not have that with all my machines. Like JP was a hell for me, sold mine since I just could not find the shots/flow. Turtles same. Mando is great I can find all shots, backhand the scoop and right ramp. My strategy is always, backhand the scoop twice to light mode, then setup the multiball in the middle. Start the mode, start the multiball, start your flamethrower, if that isn't epic then I do not know what is. Finish it of with a great super Jackpot and your in heaven.
For me encounters are the hardest part. I try to buy these with beskar. That said I really like the forgery and the options you get, get the multiball, get another flamethrower or just hit the question mark to maybe get Dank Farik. Awesome game!

You also can get a multiplier in the foundry. It will cost you some beskar.

If risk versus reward is not correct you have people sitting out the mode. I see that also with GNR with Slash Solo, not worth the points, only resulting in a drain. Same here, should be worth an huge amount of points or huge reward in beskar/extra ball etc.

Think that is not a bug, in the foundry you can also choose next RC multiball but will be hurry up as that is up. It just called all the same, multiball....

Haha.....don't forget Ghostbusters.....

Yes always nice to see new code! New call outs make the machine fresh again

Hmm new Bond game but still no topper for Mando.........Dwight will code Bond so I think he will be mostly occupied with that. I think end of line for this one.....

Then again no Godzilla no Rush no Bond topper.....

I tried to buy the topper. Was on the list with my distributor as of day 1. Seems he will only get a few.....so that will be a fight. 31 le's sold only 8 toppers available. This sucks huge and hold Stern accountable for this. But what can we do?

As I understand correct, the topper can be used without IC. It only shows some bragging rights on the topper with IC and will give you some specific achievements. Correct?

no, it is an alternative soundtrack, I do believe setting #110. Same as on Black Knight, replaces the sound track. For Mando there is a flute theme.

I have that same Star Wars topper from TJ Max...lol.

TJ Max was only $10, but you have to have some luck there.

Do you need insider connect to have the topper working, or just missing out on some statistics? But all the gameplay is there.

Playing the pro and afterwards my own LE, just made me think how harder the Premium/LE is. The scoop for super jackpots, the miniplayfield, the magnet in the back all make this machine so much harder and more unpredictable than the Pro.

So is this topper really worth the price? What do you get on additional modes and how easy is it to get to them? Love to gear from people first hand.

Same with mine, used epoxy glue. It is still on there.

What is a Fat Genie Outpost? Sounds exciting, I like my Genie fat

The Naboo Starfighter looks great, nice build. I really do not understand why they swapped the razorcrest for this in the serie. It is like a cowboy riding a ferrari in the dessert. It feels so inappropriate in the whole look and feel of the serie. The Razorcrest was an iconic pile of junk, the Naboo starfighter is just to sleek and will not fit the bountyhunter. An A-wing or B-Wing would be far better fit.

I am always surprised that Disney with all that talent, all that money, all that creativity and all that resources can make such a mess of something. It always wonder how these processes go? It is almost like they make a pinball machine like Galactic Tank Force, where they are in their bubble of Group think. Only last 2 episodes are ok. The rest is just a huge mess, with plot lines going all over and certainly not tying it all together at the end. What a waste of screentime and resources.

Maybe I am just to critical.

Check Joe Abate. But there are various versions where a Hasbro Grogu is disected to fit in the back with animations, moving ears, eyes and force move.

indeed, when multiball starts hit that button with a long push, there is time enough during the movies you get before multiball starts. Other strategy is to wait for the final jackpot. Craddle the ball and just light the shots including the jackpot shot (so not all shots have to be lit) then you only have to make the jackpot shot....easy

You can also disable the miniplayfield and the scoop shot. Then you have a promium

Anyone with a solution for the ping-pong between the slingshots. I tried turning them down, and up but this game seems to annoy the hell out of me with not giving the ball.
