Quoted from Sparky:The treehouses are available through Mezelmods, but they won't be available again until I return to the US after July 18th.
Okay awesome, I'll order one as soon as you're back then!

Quoted from Archon9000:Curious, where did you get the decals for the plastic targets (Otto, Nelson, Jimbo, Doplh, Comic book guy, ADV Pops)?
Thanks in advance!
They are available here mate

Quoted from Rensh:Which black wire? I only see one running to the flasher in Homers head
Back wire not black lol
I'm having 2 small issues with mine. The gap between the nuclear smoke stack and the Mr Burns plastic right above the left flipper lane isn't wide enough for a ball to fit through. I have cliffy post sleeves on the 2 posts.
Second, the coil under the TV is in the down position and therefore the ball is only released from under the TV during a ball search

I've finally finished the work on my machine. Added the side board decals and plastics from Russia (decals are fantastic but plastics blue is a little lighter than original) also added color DMD, speaker box decal, comic book guy decal and Duff beer mod. Lots of new plastics and new translite from Marco. Ice blue leds in some of the Gi too, though it looks darker in pics. hope you guys think it's looks okay 
I even put up a half decent score lol

Quoted from RussMyers:Did you notice your pinblade says "The Android's Dangeon"?
RussM
No I haven't noticed! I bought the blades from the Russian guy that has all the repop plastics! I'll check when I get home now 
that's a bit poo

Quoted from RussMyers:The word "Dungeon" is misspelled "Dangeon"
Should be "Android's Dungeon"
RussM
Yes unfortunately, these are the blades I have. Mis-spelling aside, the quality is really good on these

Quoted from sohchx:I wouldn't exactly call mine custom. But I went with all pink Titan flipper, shooter tip, and translucent rings for the slings.
Where do you get the pink rubbers from? Are they the same style as super bands?

How exactly is the alien sitting in there?

Quoted from luckymoey:Wouldn't mind seeing one in purple but there's a reason that nuclear yellow and green are the popular choices. Did mine in metallic yellow. The sparkle doesn't show up well in the photo.

How did you get the T-Molding to sit so well at the headbox? Or is it something else?

Quoted from Scandell:I decided to sacrifice this $17 vinyl bank to test the possibility of swapping homer’s ugly head with this more appealing one that includes his torso and a donut.
Not a great fit. So close!!![quoted image][quoted image]
That would go really well with the Alternate donut cabinet art. Pity it didn’t fit

Yes I want a donut shooter rod too

Hi all
Anyone done a powdercoated pink side rails/legs/lockdown etc? Darker pink.
Before you crucify my this is my daughters machine and I’m about to put the alternate artwork on the cabinet which is heavy in pink donuts. Got the pink donut shooter and access to pink T-Molding for the backbox

Quoted from Gotfrogs:I was looking for one a few months ago when I got my game and they were all sold out. If I recall somebody told me they would make more in the future. Let us know if you find one. I still want one!
I put a wanted ad up on pinside a couple months ago and was contacted by someone that sold me theirs, only way to get one
5 months later
I don’t necessarily think having original artwork in great condition raises the value of the machine at all from my experience. I’d say get a new decal set if it bothers you and then if you don’t want the lollipops on the side you don’t have to either
2 months later
My playfield clear coat is done with a couple wrinkles thrown in
1. Had the Simpsons cars painted Hot Pink
2. Had all the ball trail fire painted red so the dots stand out more
I’m happy with it, going to be using the Donut decals and adding a bunch of pink donuts to the machine, stay tuned……

Quoted from Only_Pinball:Looks great! What decals are you using?
Using the alternative pink donut decals from Retro Refurbs as I plan a pink donut theme throughout
Quoted from Only_Pinball:Make sure you post pics when it's done
Certainly will! Lot to go yet lol

For those that have installed a World of Springfield Moe's tavern playset into their machine, can you please share how you mounted it and fit it around the existing brackets on the backboard?
I have one and want to mount it instead of the cloud sticker that's existing in the spot

More work on my cabinet restore done today. I really like the alternate donut decals and so does my daughter

I took 100 photos during my tear down for my restoration but of course it’s never enough
I’m having trouble with what sits under the captive ball trail both top and under playfield plus my pop bumper seems like it needs something under the plastic as the led is too high
Any tear down photos would help

Also…does anyone make a donut sticker or something to cover the start button fading? Or has anyone re wrapped the cabinet in the alternate design from retro refurbs? I’d love to see pics if so.
I did the retro refurbs set, here are some pics

I still need help with installing my Bart captive ball piece
The post at the rear is part number 254-5000-15 as per the manual but it’s way too tall for the space at the rear pictured below
The manual has a terrible picture. I need to see this installed without Bart in there and I’ve looked through so many shopout pics it’s not funny
Number 8 as per the manual pic

Can't find them anywhere to buy?
I’m so close to finishing my restoration but for some reason no pics of the underside of the upper playfield
Does anyone have any pics of the bottom? Particularly near the ball exit to the monorail and the lights hook up there
My playfield is finally back in my machine!
Still some tweaking to do before I can play it.
Amazed at how many plugs in the backbox and cabinet seem to not plug in lol

I have the sticker but decided not to use it
Quoted from Stebel:Ya, those little donuts are cool. I wonder if they are prints or from a figure set?
The donuts aren’t from a figure set. They are sold by Pinball Haus as part of their flipper toppers. I decided to use them as a stand alone mod
Quoted from D-Gottlieb:Why not?
I feel the original sticker stating to hit the garage to get to the living room was more useful than just a Kwik e Mart sign, particularly for new players

Quoted from El_Barto:Those are called nylock nuts or nylon lock nuts. You can find them in most hardware stores.

Quoted from Stebel:Just got the Simpsons font on internet. Pink vinyl at craft store. Friend has a circut machine (hobby machine for cutting vinyl and other materials). Cut it and stick it on.
Thanks for the reply, probably a bit too much work finding all that here is Aus, I’d rather just buy one already done lol
Quoted from Stebel:I have a yellow one I didn’t use. I went pink. Pm me your address and I’ll throw it in the mail.
I absolutely love the offer thank you!
One small problem - my machine is yellow lol
