There is a bad and obvious bounce that goes from right to straight out the left outlane. You need to nudge solid forward when the all hits that spot on the right. I can’t remember exactly where but if you pay attention to where it hits over there you can nudge and help prevent that trajectory straight out the left.

If you try to nudge those at the outlane it won’t work because the trajectory is straight down the left outlane. Hope it helps.

I hear you, maybe I will change the rubber on the inlane plastic. It has titan red on there now so maybe some standard black rubber just on there will get a better bounce off.

I havent lowered the left post yet as the issue seems to be the lack of response nudging the inlane rubber. I can make that change tonight though as that is easy enough.

I have a set of yoyokopter outlane save posts if anyone wants them. I'll take $15 shipped for them. Can send pics if needed. Rubbers included on them.

I will take them if you still have them.

Outlane posts are spoken for. Thank you!

on my TWD (just check on yours), the left outlane is wider than the right (i mean between the wood & the guide lane of the inlane)
it is very easy to notice with the "BIT" insert...
of course, the apperture to the exits (between the posts) should be the same, but in term of nudging/rebound (ball versus the wood) it will be different while playing

if needeed will make some pics next time i'll remove the glass

Hey guys. My airball protector on my bicycle girl ramp just broke. Anybody know where I can buy a new one? Thanks!!

http://www.ulekstore.com/Bicycle_Girl_Ramp_MOD_for_Stern_s_TWD_pinball_p/clear_acrylic_twd.htm

Ive never ordered anything from ulek. This looks like what you need though

Thanks so much! Just placed my order for my replacement!!!

That is awesome. Ours is broken as well.

Thanks very much.

Worked on my game a bit today.

Fixed balls flying off the crossbow ramp on the left side. Used 1" magnetic tape just after the hump on the ramp. Played several games with hard shots up the ramp, didn't flynoff once. You can't see the tape from the player position. Magnet slows the ball down just enough to keep it on the ramp.

Second, I added a red led strip on the back left. I just didn't feel the bulbs in that area did enough to draw out the detail of the artwork. I removed the bulbs and added a strip.

Lastly, I added some lighting strips along the lower part of the playfield, using warm white led strips, 18" long and tied them to the GI. Not sure I like them yet, but they do brighten up the playfield and will dim when the GI dims. It's the poor man's version of the stadium lighting, but I wanted to keep the top part of the playfield darker. And NO, I am not going to sell them.

Is that a set of zombie arms coming from behind your pin

Yep...kind of cheesy, left over from Halloween.

Can anyone tell me out of the box does the right drop target have a decal on it from factory?

Pretty sure mine did and there is an extra included in the goodie bag

Mine did not.

Picked up a topper and blades this week and along with it came some custom side rails I guess like Rick's revolver
I am leaning toward blood armor so if anybody wants them

What topper did you get? And where did you get it from? I need one

I’ll give the goodie bag a look it’s still staples inside the cabinet.

Thanks for the reply, hopefully after TPF a couple more Prem/LE owners can chime in on the drop target decal mystery

I'll check when I'm home Monday but I thought my PREM did come with a sticker on there from the factory

Thanks, much appreciated, hopefully there is one in my goodie bag, just waiting for the Stern side art to turn up as my first mod to my newly acquired LE.

I have a pro with a dead star target. I ordered one but I guess there's a bad batch of these PCBs. I doubt anyone has a spare but I could use one.

Mine doesn’t have one.

There shouldn't be a blank drop target in this game. My 2016 has a sticker and a spare included. Call Stern and they'll send you one or two.

My premium I got NIB in fall of 2016 has a sticker on it. I later bought a LE that was made earlier and it didn't have one, not sure if fell off before I owned it or it was never there. The bow mechs are also slightly different, as the playfield colors are also slightly off each other. One has brighter reds.

Can you take a picture of the sticker for the Woodbury drop target?

Thanks for all the responses guys about the Woodybury Drop Target decal I have messaged Stern about it so will hopefully get one sent out as there wasn’t even one in the goodie

Had to get it back together first, thankfully two awesome pinheads I know where there to lend a hand, now where does this go?

Just a heads up for when you get your decal, when I first put mine on the drop target would sometimes only drop halfway. That was because the decal is quite thick and the edge was catching the lip of the drop mechanism. I put a piece of thin mylar over the drop target and decal and haven't had a problem since. It basically smooths out the thick edge of the decal and doesn't allow it to catch on the way down.

That TWD is sweet J85M where do you get it from?!

Very local, thanks to a little loan from a friend (stuff with ex is wrapping up in my favour thankfully and rightfully so) as deal on the pin was simply too good to pass up.

The ex ruined my plans to go TPF this year so this was a little celebratory treat after spanking her ass and making her look foolish in front of a judge

Just purchased my 1st NIB and its the walking dead PREM and i couldn't be more excited. it was between TWD and GOT and finally pulled the trigger on TWD this morning. Should be shipping out today and was wondering if most people play with the stock sound or with the other sound packages that are available? What did you guys do?

Cleland V1.60

smart choice. I love mine.

Could someone post a photo of this decal that goes on the Woodbury drop target on the Prem/LE, so I know what I’m asking for when I speak to Stern later today and can add a photo with my email. Thanks.

At the top of each page is a "topic gallery," which shows every pic in a thread. I scrolled through the 14 pages and saw mostly blank drop targets on the Prem/LE pics. There were only a couple of pics that showed what looked like an industrial building and it was stamped decal #29. Hazoff posted a good pic in post #5571.

So, did the Premiums ship without a decal for a while, and now they do?

In this post by Hazoff.

Sparky your awesome man thank you, it didn’t even cross my mind it would be in the gallery

Excellent choice! Fantastic game. Definitely go with modded audio. Having sound clips from the show is much better IMO.
I mixed Cleland' s 1.60 with KPG's 1.56.
You can try it here..

Weird, I didn't know the modern sterns for europe still used mechanical game counters

Im getting ready to sell my HUO TWD LE. I am the only owner. Color dmd and a few various mods. I dont play very much and Im sure there are under 200 plays on it. It really is in perfect condition. This may be the wrong place to mention it but often browse club threads of games Im interested in so I thought I would float it out there. Please PM me if interested.

Would maybe help some decide to move on this if we knew where you were located. Doesn't seem to mention that in your profile page.

I am pretty sure my BM66 doesn’t have one and I’m sure my mates GOT doesn’t have one so maybe they phased them out on UK games on the Spike system.

I was lucky with this LE, I went into the games audits and average ball times where literally seconds, woman who owned it did say her youngest liked to press the start button and walk off, playfield was flawless barely any dimpling or signs of play other than some wear on the well walkers decal.

Very happy game is proving to be as awesome as everyone said.

Good eye! That is interesting.

Awesome pick up! We have have had our LE since new. No sticker on the drop target and no sticker for the drop target in the goodie bag. I would drop some glue in the front of the cabinet corners (check if cabinet is split). Check that the playfield rail bolts are not creasing the side decals (that is what happened to ours). Best Stern game ever.

Thanks dude, I have emailed Stern regarding the drop target sticker so I’ll report back here when I get a response.

It seems to have a good old SAM cabinet by that I mean well built and (wood) solid in all corners, I hought the splitting was reported on Spike games?? Either way this cabinet appear rock solid and we gave it a good test when we picked it.

I had to stand at the top of a coal chute, while my mates lifted the cabinet up on to their shoulders, I grabbed cabinet over the front edge fingers hooked under coin door edge/lip and then took it off my mates below by lifting it out, if the cabinet was going to split it would have done so when we lifted it out, in the snow haha, I did have visions of slipping and falling down the chute with the cabinet onto my mates below but luckily avoided that

FYI, if you want to sell a game on Pinside, you are required to create an ad in the market. Thanks!

Is there a list of mods for TWD anywhere?

Stern art blades are a must imo and I’m not usually a fan of lit speaker grills but the ones with Rick on the right and the zombie getting its brains blown out on the left are cool.

Who does the best crossbow?

Is there much other than those worth having?

Yoyokopter ...

In my opinion, the most essential mod you can buy for the premium/LE is the Bicycle Girl light. Gnassel makes the best one ...
