I have one unopened still in the shipping box. (SOLD)

Quoted from BLACK_ROSE:

Is it like a 12v/5v Breaker box for multiple Hook-up's ? Got a Pict- ?

It's this guy right here:

http://www.dkpinball.com/DKWP/?page_id=181

I just bought one of these yesterday, my Tron Pro arrives on Wednesday, can't wait!

Quoted from markmon:

It's not at all blinding.

I agree in person it is not at all blinding. I was thinking of another ing word like Amazing.

And BR that looks perdy

#54 11 years ago

Forgot to mention, Blackrose you're Tron looks awesome! Nice work. Can't wait to get all my mods on mine when it gets here.

#55 11 years ago
Quoted from markmon:

I took the backboard off my tron, made a new one that was hollow, then put blue cold cathode behind it. Now the backboard is a bright lit up translite.

You got to show us pictures of this. Sounds like a great idea!

Pappy

I put orange flasher domes instead of yellow and tons of other color coordinated stuff coin.jpgcoin.jpg coin2.jpgcoin2.jpg pf2.jpgpf2.jpg pf.jpgpf.jpg

#57 11 years ago
Quoted from Xerico:

B_R's upgrades are nice, but hardly untouchable. For some, his upgrades are simply the starting point.
There are guys out there with mods not mentioned by B_R, such as Blue DMDs ($400+), Mirror blades ($100+), Recognizer Mods ($45+), Integrated Toppers($200+), Backboard lighting kits, silver flippers, Encom doors, Glowing flipper buttons, el wire on the cabinet art, etc.
One can easily spend $1,000 on Tron Mods and STILL be lacking some Tron Mods.
I'm personally on the fence as far as the Blue DMD & Mirror Blades. One moment I decide to open the wallet and the next moment I realize I can buy a nice wedghead for that amount.
I do have the mini-arcade and Kim's Recognizer Mod. The others are very nice, just not sure if I want to go Full Tron yet.
Marcus

come on B_R.. you better step up your game these rascals are tearin' in up out there

#58 11 years ago

Don't forget mirror blades and Invisiglass...

Sc1f1,
where did you get the Orange and Blue flippers?

#61 11 years ago

Do you replace the flipper or is there a black sticker for the top?
Thanks

#62 11 years ago

Oh yea I have mirror blades, my topper and my special little box I came up with to put in the Flynns sign area left to install. Working on a mount for the topper now.

#63 11 years ago

black flipper bats

http://www.pinballlife.com/index.php?p=product&id=269

sticker would be unethical

#64 11 years ago

I have black flippers and blue, orange and yellow rubbers on it.

#65 11 years ago
Quoted from DCfoodfreak:

It suppose he replaced the bats with black ones, and then used colored rubbers. It looks really nice.

#66 11 years ago

Ok, my cart is loaded at Pinball life. How easy is it to swap flippers? Can I yank them out and push the new one in?

#67 11 years ago
Quoted from ChadNC:

Light cycles on the slings relocated..

Chad, How are yr Light cycles attached to the Lane guide ? Hot Glue , Velcro , screw'd on etc ,, I want mine there also

#68 11 years ago

Loosen allen nut, slide it out, slide new flipper in and tighten

#69 11 years ago

THANKS!!

#70 11 years ago
Quoted from DCfoodfreak:

Loosen the nut on the clamp that is holding the flipper bat shaft and pull from top of the playfield the slide the new one in.

Use the white flipper gap adjustment tool to get the right gap between the flipper and the bushing.

#71 11 years ago

#72 11 years ago
Quoted from BLACK_ROSE:

I disabled the Shooter lane up Post , I got sick of hear-n it Pop up .. I don't need it anyway

Everyone probably knows this, but there are essentially three skill shots in Tron:

1. Plunge lightly to score the random bonus with the arcade scoop
2. Plunge normally to hit the up-post which will flow back to the pop bumpers
3. Hold the left flipper and plunge normally (this will disable the up-post) which will begin the ramp bonuses if you can hit the third flipper at the right time

Your game, so obviously you can do whatever you like, but the up-post is there for a reason.

Yes yr Rite , the Post is there 4 a reason .. Only for the plunge shot . If you can conTrol yr plunge , It's Not needed ..I haven't noticed it Pop up any other Tyme during ball play .

#74 11 years ago
Quoted from J85M:

Nice list BR, here's mine bro.

TRON LE with the following mods (a couple are in progress):

You can’t just post a list we need Pictures!

#75 11 years ago

I had been considering black bats with blue rubber for when mine gets here. Your picture convinces me I need to do something along those lines. Very nice.

Skill shot #2. Don't you have to make left ramp shot to get the skill shot?

It does pop up during the game which is why I leave it on. If I want to feed the upper left flipper I hold the left flipper button or I shoot for the arcade.

It will pop up at various times in the game which is why I like it... I need to figure out the method to the madness but sometimes you can make it through the orbit and sometimes the shot acts like a standup and you hit the pop up and it feeds back into the bumpers.

I really like it... Not sure why people disable it

#78 11 years ago
Quoted from herg:

yeah.. SC1F1's Tron looks amazing.. makes me almost want to get one. almost..

#79 11 years ago

Also another tricky shot is plunge for the GEM shot!! Very cool and hard to do but I get it every now and then

#80 11 years ago

Very Helpful thread..and I thought I was done, ha!
New flippers, rubbers and decals ordered!
Now the DMD. Torn because the orange does go with my orange armor but that blue is so seductive.

#81 11 years ago
Quoted from Sc1f1:

I've seen this too, but I'm not sure when it's supposed to pop.

At any rate, sorry to hijack. I'll post pics tonight. I have some small things I haven't seen here yet...

#82 11 years ago
Quoted from EmptyLogic:

Crap, I wasn't paying enough attention and thought that was your pic since you were posting all the links.

i cant watch you guys have all this fun and not participate

#84 11 years ago

Sc1f1, where did you get the Encom decal? I have a smaller one that says 'Encom Pinball Division' from eBay.

#85 11 years ago
Quoted from J85M:

• Coloured Cliffy Posts - White, Blue, Yellow, Orange, Red

Ok, who sells these? The Cliffy site won't take Paypal.

#87 11 years ago

I found my sticker on eBay

#88 11 years ago

Here is my topper I made. I've yet to get a mount made and installed.

It is tied in to the PIG. All my mods are

#89 11 years ago
Quoted from pinballlooking:

You can’t just post a list we need Pictures!

I use my iPhone most of the time which won't allow me to upload images. But I'll upload some from work in a day or so. I don't think there is any area of my TRON I haven't modded.

#90 11 years ago
Quoted from Sc1f1:

ere is my topper I made. I've yet to get a mount made and installed.

Distracting, you should mount that on top of the back box instead of lying on the glass like that : )

#91 11 years ago
Quoted from DCfoodfreak:

HAHA! I know right. Hopefully I will have it up on the backbox in the next day or 2

sure I do, even if there's no shopping cart on my site.

I'm pretty sure it's activated when you get 'superpops' via the TRON targets... I don't think it pops up any other time, apart from ball launch without the left flipper in... I used to hold my left flipper in when plunging for the Flyns argade skill shot just to stop the annoying noise every ball launch, but kept it active for the superpops... although I must admit, I think I'd prefer it totally disabled, but err'd on the said of factory

#96 11 years ago

I grabbed them on the other site this time. I will email next time. Thanks
Heads up though Your checkout did say PayPal is not active at this time when I tried.

#97 11 years ago
Quoted from DCfoodfreak:
