Quoted from Eskaybee:

Ok I think I found the screw. It’s under the powerslave annubis looking plastic right next to the ball gate black post. I’ll see if I can get to it tonight but might have to wait for the weekend.

It looks like that's the one. My game is sitting at 6.5+ and the orbit is spot on most of the time.

#331 6 years ago

What's the best score that you guys have had at this point? This is the best I have been able to muster so far. Damn, I'm in love with this pin.

Quoted from Gryszzz:

Congratulations Hougie. Like Ronald McDonald I know yer lovin it.

Hell yeah, man. I want to post up an official review but let's just say that it exceeds my expectations in every way. Love it.

#340 6 years ago

I just hit five left orbits in a row. It felt like the warp ramp in Stern Star Trek. That's one of my favorite shots in pinball. It helps if you hold up the left flipper when you are trying to shoot the loop.

#343 6 years ago
Quoted from Eskaybee:

So be brutally honest with me here. How are you guys at hitting the super skill shot / super jackpot? Not the actual loop or setup but the actual shot into that tight shot. I’m fixated on that shot trying to hit the X to light my 2X and 3X. Some games I can hit it left and right, but most games I’ll take 20 stabs at it and not get it once. Makes for a very satisfying hit, but also frustrating when I’m in trooper mb and have nothing lit but that super jp shot.

I'm gonna say it's like the gem shot in Tron. We'll probably have to nudge the game and nail it. That shot and the lower left spinner are beating me up and taking my lunch money right now. But I'm a scrapper and I keep coming back for more. lol

#344 6 years ago

That super jackpot is hands down the toughest shot in the game though. I can't stop hitting start!! I'll hang it up at two minutes to midnight.

#384 5 years ago

I've started to get a bit more consistent hitting it after I shoot the center ramp and the ball rolls to the upper left flipper. I did it twice in a row last night.

#396 5 years ago
Quoted from Eskaybee:

You know you’re having a good game when Rime of the ancient mariner is your song choice for the game and halfway during your game you’re at the songs melodic breakdown and then almost get through the whole song too lol!

That said, anyone know what run to the hills mode is? I don’t recall doing any special modes or hearing the song in fact, but apparently I did good lol

Killing it man!

#401 5 years ago

Had a crap ball one. I blame it on the devil.

Quoted from Eskaybee:

So are there any shakers that do work?

I have a PBL in mine. I bought it last year some time. It works just fine. The female connector can only go on one way.

#435 5 years ago

It's no scuba Steve score but I'm pretty proud of it!

Quoted from Gryszzz:

First thing I noticed and absolutely fuckin love is when you start a game you can pick a track, you're pretty much in attract mode jukebox wise, but you can start game when you want and track keeps playing. Nice. Very nice.

Agreed. It's a nice touch and perfect for beer breaks.

Hey guys,
I am itching to spice up my Maiden. What are your favorite mods for the pro?
I have a shaker in it but haven't added anything else.

Quoted from NeilMcRae:

oh and while you are doing it, install the pin monk lenses

What are pinmonk lenses? Any other recommendations?

#3788 5 years ago
Quoted from KnockerPTSD:

Game doesnt meed much.
Shaker motor is a must for everyone.
I've also got and recommend
-changing bulbs frosted
-Pinmonk's mode tree and loop mods.
-Pinmonk's fan mod.
-Mezels Pharoah blinder and protector.
-Pinovator's sub kit (with Polk PSW10)
-Titans (whatever you like but I went mostly dark blue with orange upper flippers)
-Stern art blades.
swapping out nuts for chrome domes looks great.
I feel like the shaker and the mode tree make the most obvious improvements.

Quoted from Kevlar:

Get some figures to replace the pathetic flat plastics stern fit to the pro...[quoted image][quoted image]

Thanks guys I'll check these out!

Anyone have mirror blades pics?

I just realized that none of us responded. Here are a few. I personally love mirror blades.

I had my first node board failure. Has anyone else had issues? I'm bummed with the new "take and toss" repair model.

Quoted from Angel:

Happy to post that my Iron Maiden Premium arrived today, born on January 22nd, 2020, looks amazing. The one unusual things is that it came with purple powder coated legs. Is this normal? The pictures I see on the Stern website, the legs look black...or has Stern changed the color of the legs in this latest run?[quoted image]

I've seen stranger things before.
