Interested and can't wait to see the final, painted product!
Quoted from Dantesmark:How do u do one of those ? Shots?
Hold left flipper, plunge halfway to the top orbit so it falls back to small flipper, hit super jackpot target
Quoted from Dantesmark:How do u do one of those ? Shots?
Shatzing the ball up the right flipper and hitting the tombstone target.
Quoted from Rik_:Shatzing the ball up the right flipper and hitting the tombstone target.
This is correct. To expand on it for those not quite familiar with a shatz, also known as an alley pass, when the ball is on the right flipper, to perform a “shatz” you let the ball roll down all the way to the very tip of the flipper and then you flip to make the ball roll up the left inlane with enough speed that it hits the graveyard market positioned above the left inlane. Hitting this target via an alley pass while in MB or in a Eddie Battle mode will complete one of the lit shots for you.

This only awards you with an ego award for super skill shots.

First pass not too bad. Need to work on the supports used during printing a little, the underside of his fists aren't the best. Wife will use it for a practice painting

I need that, TAKE MY MONEY!!
Quoted from finnflash:I need that, TAKE MY MONEY!!
LOL, can't sell since I used thingiverse.com files and did some editing/merging/cropping/combining - but I'll send you the files. Find a buddy w/printer and you should be good to go.

So it's not gonna happen, oh well. Great idea though

The model you are using looks exactly like this (including the areas about the wrists and teeth that allow you to plug in the broken chains)

Are you the original designer?
Edit: nevermind - I see you addressed that already. Would've been cool if you were the og designer.

Yep - that's the one. Didn't use all of it, just the head and the body. Boy, I wish I had those artistic abilities - I probably can't even make a square correctly in the drawing tools!
Quoted from Dantesmark:Do u have a different eddie for tge other speaker?
I was just going to 'mirror' the grill for the other side. If there was more Iron Maiden figures available, I might consider doing something different for the other grill. But in general, I sort of like it symmetrical.

I'd love the .stl for that, and if you have it, just the speaker grill. As a side note, most of the models on thingverse are licensed as such that as long as you give credit to the original designer you can sell them.
Edit: just looked, that Eddie is under a non commercial licence, so no selling

Hey Rik_, PM me your e-mail and I will send the stl. And I do have just the speaker grill too (got that from thingiverse too, but I had to alter and mod).
Not even interested in selling if I could, too much work. I'm retired - I don't want another job! Just fooling around in TinkerCad and if something interesting happens to pop out that others want - they can have the files.
Had some fun on Iron Maiden the other night on location @ The Bonus Round in Sioux Falls, SD. Been playing this machine more and been flirting with breaking into the top scores. I managed to blow up Hallowed Be Thy Name with 140,553,200 points.
I wish pinside would do some kind of top score thing for different modes on different machines. I'm not sure if this is a decent score for this mode or not but it felt great!
160004782_433834821017180_5962348845950440969_n (resized).jpgI joined the club yesterday picking up an Iron Maiden Premium via trade for a SW Premium. I'm a big fan of the band and always loved the flow of this pin. Looks like the right flipper is a little weak which I need to troubleshoot more and now I'm looking at mods. If anyone sees the Stern mummy topper for sale at a reasonable price (I know I'm dreamin') please let me know!
Welcome to the club! I’d pop in new coil stops, sleeves and maybe new linkages. You’ll need all the power you can to defeat the mathafakkin beast!!!

Not sure if I’m going crazy or not but I’m suddenly finding the upper loop shot impossible to hit. I can hit the super jackpot shot much more easily than the loop. It’s possible that my flipper came off of alignment very slightly when I had to remove the flipper mech to get to a post, although the tip of the flipper is pretty close to being aligned with the dot.
Should the super jackpot be easier than the loop? Any tips for dialing this in?

I personally feel that shot is the toughest one in the game by design.
If anyone has a lot of experience with pinball browser on this title with the latest code, could you PM me?
Thanks!

Update: I moved my upper left flipper a few millimeters to the right and made a huge difference....
Gonna replace the left (orb) newton ball on my premium today, anyone have any advice? Is it as simple as unscrewing the ball from the actuator post?
Quoted from red-line:Gonna replace the left (orb) newton ball on my premium today, anyone have any advice? Is it as simple as unscrewing the ball from the actuator post?
Yes it's easy, the centering cone is also screwed on to the threaded rod on the ball.
I replaced the newton ball and I still have the same issue. Is this amount of play normal? In the video below I am just spinning the ball, not putting any pressure on it one way or another.
I created a custom version of the Pro software that replaces: the “light tunnel” loop (can see that change on boot up); all tutorial videos (3 that show how to reach various MBs) and the Stern attract modes videos (3 that show putting a quarter in the machine).

I have a few other ideas, like replacing the tour date list, but spent enough time time on this already.

Very cool. Great work.
Quoted from TinyBlackDog:Neca is definitely nicer, but I’d take either one over the flat plastic on the pro.
Plastic artwork by zombie yeti vs a made in China action figure !

I have zero problem with the flat plastics in this game. Still sharp and this game is more about gameplay. My Metallica was decked out but Maiden is almost good as is (essential Pinmonk mode tree)

That looks sweet, was the NECA figure a direct replacement without any drilling or customizing? I'm tempted to order one of these myself and do the swap, got any pictures of it installed and how do you mount the chains?

Just a small clamp around his left foot. But there’s more ways to do it. This was the quickest way without changing anything. This small clamp keeps Eddie solid even without anything on his right foot ( hot glue, screw or Velcro )

Wow....how is this not blowing up on this thread?!? good work!
Quoted from Alaskanzen:Wow....how is this not blowing up on this thread?!? good work!
It's pretty awesome work.
Quoted from tominator:Looks cool, but won’t it ruin the sound?
I thought about that earlier and moved the powerslave mummy lower on the grill. But when I was printing it last night, I thought I had moved it down even more towards the bottom and that I might have grabbed the wrong file. The body is tilted forward maybe 20 degrees, so from around the shoulders up, that's not blocking the grill (plus it makes it look cooler).
Definitely don't want it centered up on the grill!
Quoted from fhk:iron maiden again production?
Supposedly another production run is about to take place. I have a preorder in and am hoping that it actually happens. One positive note is that it no longer shows “sold out” on the the Stern website.
Quoted from mbwalker:I posted around a week ago about a 3D printed speaker grill I've been working on. Maybe after a half a dozen failed prints I finally split it up into 3 prints...much better.
Time for the wife to paint! Still a practice print tho, but the quality is pretty much 'spot on'.
