Thanks to everyone who pitched in on this. I've been hunting for a Tron LE for a long time, but either the location or timing or price wasn't right. Oddly enough, in the last week there were three within 3 hours from me that popped up. But I picked up an unadvertised one that was under 20 minutes away from my house, done deal.

It's hanging out in my truck waiting to come in, but it's here and it's mine and I'm thrilled. This fella has been my grail pin ever since I bought Tron Pro and spent the last 3 years kicking myself for not spending the extra $1500 to get the LE....

Details to come later.

I hope this gets remade in some way to have the LE features but not affect the LE exclusivity.

Quoted from Rick432:

I think that statement is what's called an oxymoron

Oh god please not again. It's not being remade, it would kill off too many future LE sales

Just go buy a pro and mod it, or put on your big boy pants and suck it up and pay for the LE. Best of luck on your tron hunt.

OK...big thanks to Ted for helping lug this in...despite the tropical humidity levels, he broke away from brunch, football, and cigars to help a friend in need

And his precision measuring technique involving fingers, screwdrivers, and a wrench oddly worked in determining that the game would fit with the topper intact...

So just got done getting it settled into place and put up a few quick games. This week I'm going to give her (or is it a him?) a good coat of wax...

#18 9 years ago

Some details on this game...

LE #356
Lit recognizer
Topper
undercabinet lighting
color changing speaker lights
speaker inserts
flipper fidelity system
Flynn's sign (not yet installed!)
pinbits protectors

Going to order the blue DMD for it, and that's all she gets. Game needs nothing!

#19 9 years ago

I'm in my happy place!

You may want to consider the ColorDMD sigma and link it to your speakerlight kit ( just an interface cable) the display changes color w your speaker lights, and looks badass...( big time).....congrats again...mark

Also put on some anti-rattle tape on the glass.

Laid down two quick coats of wax on the playfield and tossed in new balls...

And the pretty pictures...

I did manage to actually play a few games on here. At least got my initials on.

I will say that this game is just awesome! I'm still getting the feel for it, but I can actually make the Gem shot which was next to impossible on my Pro....

Any time...!

I need to prep my Pro to go to its new home tonight though...so not much opportunity to play more on here. But come on by any time!

#45 9 years ago

Oh, and if anyone is wondering, the blue line in the photos is a reflection from the topper....

#46 9 years ago

Did you figure out the remote yet?

#47 9 years ago

It's for the speaker lights...the sensor for it was buried.

I set them to stay on blue. Kind of like it. Blue DMD is coming this week too....

#48 9 years ago

Does it control the topper as well?

#49 9 years ago

Nope. Topper is blue. And only blue. And if I don't like it I can change it to blue. But I like it.

#50 9 years ago

I think blue is the way to go...
