Your pop bumper caps are in the wrong spots. They are ordered to the skill shot.
Top left - red
Top right - orange
Lower - yellow.
I really like your back light strip. Really brightens up the game.

Quoted from yzfguy:My led strip-in-the-back.[quoted image]
How long of a strip did you use?
Quoted from yzfguy:Pretty sure it's 8". (Thats what she tells me, anyway). I centered it and stuck it so it's facing away from the player. If it's aiming down towards the playfield, you can see reflections of the LEDs in the plastics and ramps.
Thank you. I’ll be copying you, as it looks great. I have a smoke ramp and it really makes the back look dark. The strip is perfect.
Quoted from Scott8806:It only does it when shooting it and it does announce it's the power ball if I hit it on the red or orange it shoots it out ofcourse only of I shoot it all the way and it comes out the slot and says Powerball now the next shot after the ball drains is the Powerball
Scott send me a message with email. I can’t contact you anymore.
Quoted from damadczar:Well I took a chance on the classic arcades repro. Total crap. Just utter crap. The colors and sharpness on my original one were far superior, even with the damage and scratches. Anyway, after I send this back to him I'm going to go with the Netherlands reprint I guess. I mean, why isn't a TZ speaker panel quality reprint more commonly found? Seems like a missed opportunity for reprint people.
I mean, look at this?! EDIT: note there is no film covering the panel, just the transparent plastic. Also, if I gave you a close up shot you'd notice the obvious blurry/fuzziness of the printing, and not the sharp smooth lines of the original.

I guess I’ll try the other guy on eBay that has this plastic for sale.
Thanks for the picture.
Looking through the club, saw that someone used some star post lights on the mini playfield. I decided to go a bit further.
Lit up all the main star posts, all to GI. For the upper pf, I used glow in the dark star posts and wired the post lights to the Battle the Power insert. I thought the glow in the dark posts would stand out more, but not really.

I’d get rid of the TV and the plane. Put that display on full reveal.
Quoted from ParisPinballAdct:clever - and look good!
did you glue them on?
Just some hot glue. Can peel them off easily to work on pop bumper, but solid enough not to fly off.
Speaker cutouts were just a way to make promotional plastics to give away. They had to cut out the hole for the speakers anyways so instead of the garbage you have drink coasters.
Have seen people use stand offs and place them in front of the speaker itself.
Quoted from DuffysArcade:Wanted to share a project recently completed. Using an 8x32 LED Matrix panel (WS2812 LEDs) driven by an Arduino Nano, I backlit the doorway area behind Rod Serling with an animated pattern.

Absolutely great effect! It looks like the light source is perfectly behind Rod. Well done.
