Seriously awesome. Look forward to when it’s my turn to get one!
Quoted from Pastor69:After some time off I am going back to producing my version of the walking Puft!
One huge improvement is that I have been able to achieve less wiring.
This means that it will also be way easier to connect the cables, ensuring an easy install.
See the picture below:

In previous versions you had to connect 6 different wires (yes, it looked real messy) to a specific slot on the controller board, now it's as easy as connecting two 3-pin connectors.
To finish it off, I now have my own website as well. This saves me a bunch of time in terms of creating shipping labels etc.
I will now be going through the list at a pace of 3-4 Pufts a week. Once you are up I will notify you by PM and then redirect you to my website.
Can we get this version of the .stl files for the original buyers?
Thanks,
Ken

Trying my hardest to produce as many as I can, but working with only 1 3D printer and sourcing many different parts takes up a lot of time
Don't worry though, eventually everyone that is interested will get theirs.
Also, I created a new short video which show cases all the features of the mod:

Great Mod. I have printed out the parts a few times due to your updates and each time I say Wow, this mod is amazing. Not difficult to install, and add a new level of joy to the game.

Great work! Enjoy mine thanks for your commitment. I like the fact that servo is concealed out of sight! and it adds to game play and not over done with movement but just right! Keep up the great work we all appreciate it!
I'd like to be added to this list when you start adding people again. I have the original Walking Mech with the servo and arm and it keeps falling off. This looks way more stable.

Same here, add me to your list.
thanks
thanks so much for the update that your still making them for all of us on the list.........nice video also
I would also love to be added to the list when it opens back up. I've been coming here to check out the updates regularly, this looks great.
As soon as I am through the list I will publish my website here in this thread. Then you can order whenever you'd like
Just got my kit but don't know where the installation instructions are located. Is there a link or download?
Thanks Martin
I've had my kit sitting in my game room for 2 weeks now, I'm just being lazy, sadly.

Since many that I message simply do not respond, I am asking everyone that is still interested to signup with their email via this link: https://janspinballmods.com/games/ghostbusters/walking-mr-stay-puft/
As soon as they are back in stock you will automatically be notified.
Thanks for bearing with me!

Not sure if you have sent me a message in the past as never received anything so went to you link and signed up under Jady / Swinks, hope to hear back
Quoted from swinks:Not sure if you have sent me a message in the past as never received anything so went to you link and signed up under Jady / Swinks, hope to hear back
Nope, this was mainly the ~60 people I sent messages before you, thats why I decided to go this route. Next time they are in stock ill make sure its at least 10 of them, so good chance you will be able to purchase one through the site then .
Just tried to sign up to be notified, but it says something went wrong. Is that option only for people who are on your interest list in your first post? If so, can I please be added? Thanks!

Hm, it should work. I just tried with a dummy email and it succeeded.

We need Pastor69 to help Jady with some Arduino wizardy on his Firehouse build to maybe figure out a way to have that door open/close during a mode or maybe some other cool features. How cool would that be. I volunteer, lol
Side Note: The messed up ColorDMD is in no way a reflection on this mod install, moreso a reflection of me being an wreckless jackass.
Quoted from javagrind888:It says "something went wrong" when i sign up.
There seems to be an issue with the plugin I am using that handles the emails and such. Looks like it fixed itself for now, try again once and if it still doesnt work again let me know.
Received the new batch of servo's, so expect about 10 units to be ready next week. Make sure you fill out your email and name here if you are still interested: https://janspinballmods.com/games/ghostbusters/walking-mr-stay-puft/
Obviously the people that were already on the list (at the first page of the forum thread) will be emailed first.
Quoted from BentleyBear:Put me down for 1 library ghost
If you’re interested take a look at my website, they will be going for sale there soon.
Quoted from Morgoth00:I put mine over here

For anyone on the fence, I installed my mod last night. I'm an idiot so it took me a few moments to realize I needed to disconnect a portion of my color DMD wire and THEN plug it into the line powered by the backbox. I'm also a HUGE idiot and forgot to take the nuts off the mounting screws and thought to myself "How in the HELL are these screws not long enough?" I promptly face-palmed and laughed it off.
Mod is SUPER RAD and I rate it 10/10 despite being terrified beyond the capacity for rational thought.

Glad you like it!
As demand has seemed to slow down I have started to work on a walking/moving mecha godzilla (only for prem/le). Still lots to do but will of course integrate it with gameplay just like the walking puft mod.

No love for pro\../
Quoted from freddy:No love for pro\../
Too bad the pro doesnt have the toy already installed.

Many pro owners added a Godzilla figure. Just as many prem owners changed Their figure .
Quoted from freddy:Many pro owners added a Godzilla figure. Just as many prem owners changed Their figure .
The main problem would be that the toys added/changed out will not work since the mecha godzilla in the prem/le uses a latch to move around. Impossible to do if the latch isnt present since its a key part in making it move/holding position.

Oh I missed the mecha part I thought the GZ on the left side of play field!

Will be awesome, My game is themed towards Mecha!
20230514_081919 (resized).jpgQuoted from eyeamred2u:When will we see any information for the moving MechaGodzilla?
Currently a little busy with other things so it is indefinitely on hold for now. Perhaps I will pick it up again in a few months

Good to know.
For anyone still interested, check the first post in this thread.
Demand has slowed down so these might be the last few produced for some time.
As of right I am working with the Serum team on getting the new ColorDMD/Pin2DMD alternative to market, see this post if you are interested:
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/official-tron-lovefest-thread-i-love-it-more-than-lamp/page/232#post-8017099
You will be able to get these at my website when theyre done.
I have resumed working on the walking/moving mechagodzilla for prem/le. Already did the first tests and it's looking really good. Will make a thread about it in the next few months.
Just in case some will ask: there will be no "lists" or anything of that sort.
The launch of walking staypuft taught me quite a few things, having no list is definitely one of them. First come first serve is the way to go.

Well this sounds cool
Very happy with Mr. Stay Puft I recently got so will be interesting to see how this turns out.
