I went with COLORDMD LED on all my williams pins and they look awesome. I got rid of any LCDs. They look like computer screens in your back box and they look out of place IMHO... The LEDs can be nice and bright and hit you in the face or you can turn down the brightness. They definitely look more traditional.

These are turned all the way up for brightness, but they all have the comet screen glare protector on them. So that dims them down a little bit too. The colors are also really vibrant.

Quoted from Paul_from_Gilroy:

Interesting. A lot has been written about ColorDMD LED Vs. LCD. Did you find that it is an across-the-board improvement, or does it vary depending on the game? I have several ColorDMD LCDs and one thing I've noticed is that some look best with DotsXL, some with Tile, etc. Occasionally I'll switch a game to smoothy, just to have a different look for a while. I also think newer ColorDMD LCD panels look a little better than older ColorDMD LCD panels, but it could be my imagination. And then there are some colorizations that look better than others (I think The Shadow and IJ colorizations are stellar and stand above some of the other colorizations).

All of my games have improved with the LED. Even the T2 which doesn't have a ton of DMD graphics. However, all of these games are early 90s Williams/Bally pins, so they integrate well into the pin. The LCD may work better on other types of pins also.

Quoted from arcadenerd925:

No disrespect, if it was set to a fair "buy it now" price I would grab it. But assuming this is going to bid up due to the lack of availability from GLM itself just kinda loses my interest. However, I get it, supply and demand. GLWS.

None taken. The buy it now price is for some one who really wanted it and is willing to pay that price. The auction is the fairest way to do it considering the lack of availability right now. I started bidding at GLM price and the buy it now price is out of the picture. I'm not trying to gouge anyone here, I'd be happy with GLM's price.

Quoted from KenEberhardt:

Anyone who have added the convolux mod?

Store options: http://www.shop.freddys-pinball-paradise.de/index.php?f=3&q=convolux%206539
It looks REALLY nice on other machines I have seen and want to add to my TZ...
Any experience and color advice - orange seems to match plastics well but the pictures or yellow and red also looks great

The only problem I've found with these colored plastic protectors is that they tend to wash out the artwork on the plastic with that color. Like applying a colored filter over the artwork. The edges look great though. Just something to consider.

Great pic. Trying to get one back in my collection. Where did you get side art?

Got these from phoenixarcade.com and they look great. Screen printed.
