Check it out!
These leds are loud!!

#3353 7 years ago

The attic is obviously high in the backbox and really dark.
Art's led's deliver..

#3354 7 years ago

This is way beyond insane...just a fabulous job, and by far the best thread on Pinside!

#3355 7 years ago

Des-Mic-able Me.

#3356 7 years ago

here is a start, then place a decal inside the recess of the eyeball - outer diameter is 37mm

CAD is not the best for a decal concept but can do the shooter knob in metal and you guys do a decal

Wow yes!
No sweat man!
We can totally pull that off together Swinks!
Awesome.

#3358 7 years ago

Hi Amigos,

This pin is simply amazing. All the details and design is exceptional. Thanks for sharing.

#3359 7 years ago

It'd be funny if they did the minions "Oooooooo...." "Ahhhhhh...." when the player does combos lol

render is on a black stern shooter, with a minion plunger plate and shooter knob.

thoughts before I order the knob.....

Quoted from pinballrockstar:

So yesterday i went to the movies with my kids(batman lego movie)and saw this new arcade.
Found 2 sterns in there i never touched before!

Boo! that premium doesn't have my Popcaps!

Just had about 300 posts to go thru... as I've been slacking during Friday updates. nice to see Swinks jump in for the shooter rod win!

#3366 7 years ago

Well finally caught up again. As always a great read. Love this bringing us pinheads together from all over and down under.
Keep up the great work. Love that you just keep going even on those backward steps. Fantastic amigos.

There see the machine doesn't get all the love.

Hey Jokerpoker,thanks!
It is indeed wonderful this connects people.
We continue this topic with joy,it is the cosy hangout that we wanted it to be for everybody.
Is swinks a buddy of yours or are you far apart?

#3369 7 years ago

It was fixed price 1150 euros,which is about the same in dollars

#3380 7 years ago

I would drive home as slow as bringing a new baby home. Man that's hanging out. Flaunt it if ya got it I guess.

#3382 7 years ago

I don't think the machine was technically in the car, it was more out than in!
I have a similar car and it's just about 2cm (1 inch) too low to fit a game with the head folded down.
How annoying!

Hey Bas
No we are too far apart but love his mod work also. That shooter rod is going to look awesome.

Love the strap around the entire door to keep the Hurricane in. Now that's commitment.

I look like that too when I do a return trip to Brisbane for a pin. 28 hr round trip.

Y'all even got weird looking trains over there. Who figured. Ha ha.

You talkin smack aboot the dutch railway company dude?
Nah kidding,your trains look weird to me too i guess it works like that!

#3386 7 years ago

I can only imagine what the other drivers were thinking seeing that thing "falling" out of the back of your car... hilarious!

I had a Hurricane for a while, If that ramp that brings the ball around the front is in good shape then that's a good price pin. Kinda got old fast but I enjoyed it. I always wanted, and now will pass the idea off to you... It needs to be re-themed as "Scooby-do haunted funland"... For your next project

Yeah,everybody was scared driving behind me hahaha.
If i overtake,they overtake me back instantly
Making a sidenote of your idea!
It is a good machine to retheme with a p-roc.
Fun fact: i bought this hurricane from the exact same nice guy from whom i bought the world cup soccer that became the minion machine..
Maybe it is meant to be?!
Hurricane rebuild?!
Hm

#3388 7 years ago

A Scooby-Doo haunted house re-themed pin done by the same 3 amigos who bought the donor game from the exact same guy...like zoiks Scoob! Sounds like KARMA should be in there somewhere!!(name of a mode maybe?!!) Hahah..I can hear the hamster wheels spinning!

#3389 7 years ago

Next one is Sopranos?

Apparently you have the itch to clean up a dirty pin again after baywatch

Hahaha,you saw me bid...yup i did it again...i need new stuff man...but realistically at 2500 i am in for sopranos,even if it's one previously exploited in a coalmine.
But got a message instantly,he needs 3000 for it.
No way i am paying 3k for that ugly photoshopped playfield.
But yeah i am sinking to questionable level bidding on that guy's machines.
He screwed me over so often.
But he always has pinballs? Where does he buy them from?
And why are they all gross?

#3391 7 years ago

I wish it was Friday.

Yeah. I know what you are saying as I have bought several pins from him but always had a good experience. No sales pressure but you need to have pinball knowledge and bring cookies. Yes, they needed cleaning but that's part of the joy for me.

On pictures this Sopranos doesn't look that bad. Fish looks to be intact to.

Anyway, should visit you one time on a Friday to make an article for clubmagasine spinner.

And for your info, had DPO meeting yesterday and for the moment we are planning a seperate space for specialty flippers like Minions. We are expecting minions, kill bill, matrix, captain Nemo for the moment

Ok no pressure at all
No kidding,that would be really cool Rensh...a separate area for the arts and crafts department
