Speaking about the artwork. I have not owned a new Stern machine since The Walking Dead. Sterns artwork has always been kind of bland and cut and paste. I picked up an Iron Maiden and wow the artwork is just stunning. I can't believe the Drastic change in art from that time period to now

Nice! Why doesn't stern use this zombie yeti guy for every playfield? What else has he done for stern?

Yes complete shop job. It seems it was heavily routed for about a year and went into a home where it wasn't shopped for the next year. When I received it it look like someone took a bag of coil dust and dumped it over the whole machine. I mean black dust everywhere, in the cabinet even in the back box. I had to strip everything and completely clean the black dust off of everything. I actually thought it caught fire, LOL. I asked about it on pinside and apparently black rubbers cause this? Upon the teardown I noticed the Playfield was a defective one right from the factory and had a big wear spot right to the wood. But that is another issue. I did touch up the wear spot but you can clearly see it in the picture

Mine mine was the same. Stern uses really cheap flipper mechs now

Got this machine not too long ago and have a couple questions. How do you lite the revive? Also when I got the machine I went to update the code figuring that would be an update. Last update was over a year ago. I guess a year-and-a-half at this point. Do you think they will ever update the code again? Does it need anything? Or is it solid the way it is?

Do you recommend any changes in the settings? The only setting I changed so far as I put music to -5 so it is a bit louder. Everything else Factory so far. Any recommended changes to the settings?

Do you have a website or a link to a website?

Added the LE figures to my Iron Maiden

So I asked everybody on this thread what are the best mods to get for Iron Maiden. Most people said a subwoofer and a shaker. The subwoofer is huge add on for this! Thank you guys for recommending the sub. However the Shaker is useless. I bought the spike shaker from Stern and it barely shakes. I have it on maximal use and I can barely notice it. Beside a game like my iron man that has a red Tremor and is constantly going through the whole game, Iron Maiden seems to only go if you hit a jackpot. It barely shakes at all even when you do hit a jackpot it's a couple small turns. Very disappointed with the Shaker use in Iron Maiden. Hopefully they update that with a new update

It's a pretty easy install four screws and you plug it into that board on the side. I did everything the instructions say. It just barely moves. Not as much as the Iron Man beside it. My Iron Man Shaker is always going. My Iron Maiden Shaker seems to only go when you hit certain shots or jackpot and then it still doesn't go that much ? My powered subwoofer shakes the machine more than the Shaker does. Do you think it matters what direction the Shaker was mounted in whether those bars on the side swing in or outwards?

yes! glad i am not the only one. not much shaker interaction at all. need more shaker in the next update
