He’s so cute with his pipe!

Have an huo LE for sale, send pm if you have interest.

It has an playfield protector on it (installed by freddy pinball paradise)

Only accept bankwire

Very dapper

Just to add to the easter egg. In the original JP film Nedry's computer has a small photo of Oppenheimer smoking a pipe and a post-it note above it with a drawing of a thought bubble with a mushroom cloud in it.

No... but you might possibly be the last!!

Is Stern still planning to restock the shooter rod (with LEDs) soon or was that just a rumor?

Well played

He has it locally for sale since end of January but is asking like usd 4000 more than new price ......

I also noticed his picture in the control room clip. Congrats on the JP, it's a great game. Your game room is looking great, awesome lineup, you're all set for quarantine!

VERY interested!

But that is the going price in Europe. I doubt he's intending to sell it to someone in the US.

UK price is £8,995 for a prem (no LEs available) = $10,700

A Stranger Things LE is £10,495 = $12,500.

I don't think you realise just how much cheaper machines are in the US compared to Europe.

I am based in Europe NL so know pricing .

Regular pricing on a LE is like 10Keur and he is asking like 14Keur

Biggest reason for the huge price difference is the 21% VAT we have and US doesn’t.

10k eur = £9,200

I've just told you that an LE is £10,500 in the UK - from the ONLY distributor - so that would equate to 11,400 Euro.

mainland Europe is cheaper than the UK, but still nowhere near as cheap as the US.

Ugh. This appears to be way to common of a problem ... just 2 weeks old

Double check that you didn’t update with a pro code

Still no news about an official topper.. come on Stern, don’t pull another Star Wars topper debacle.

Have any premiums been delivered this week? Still patiently waiting on mine (for the 5th month in a row).

Are any of the premiums from the most recent batch having playfield finish issues or has this been fixed?

I think playfield finish issues were fixed before premiums came out. Got mine a long time ago and I have no problems.

yea, I have not seen or heard about premium problems

Aye aye captain no problem here

Gently used one in south Florida by Dave, on the Village Now...perhaps here....Premium $6800

No playfield issues at all. Clear is not too thick either so dimpling is very much reduced. Blast to play, very challenging shots and a target shooter of a game.So many unique shots!

I Had a few minor issues with mine right out of the box - Nedry outlane switch was factory too tight and left apron LED board feeder wire had the Z connector installed wrong. Played maybe a hundred games and lost node board #9 - game is unplayable at the moment as Stern ships a new board.
Eager to get back at it again!

Unfortunately this isn't true. There were some JP premiums with some PF chipping issues. Mine included (build date 10-21-19). I'm currently waiting for a promised replacement playfield. Stern is doing the right thing for me. For this reason I will continue to buy Stern premiums

If you don't mind me asking, where was the chipping at? Was it at the post by the upper flipper? The reason I ask was I think I would have had it there if I didn't check and tighten the post a few times. The post takes a beating. I saw a Pro that had chipping there but the post was very loose.

No problems whatsoever on my LE. And, it's a great game.

We are deciding what color Titans to put on our JP. If you have done dark blue, light blue or green could you please post some photos for us!

Thanks

I am thinking green, my wife likes dark blue.

All titans except black show the grime. You just have to clean them more often!

We have purple on our BM66. looks awesome

Can anyone with Stern's amber lit shooter knob advise on where the plug attached to??

CN 15 on the cabinet board, left inside

since you seem to not read the other JP thread here we go:
600 games, clearcoat is damaged at the upper flippers post.
The post was never loose, because i always checked it!
Build date = Dec. 17. 2019

For the post sleeve i just can recommend PerfectPlay "thin" post sleeves, since the other ones have extreme repound.

Took me this long to get through 97 pages of posts!

Already got most of the Mezel Mods; Raptor tower, Barbasol can, Raptor pen, plastic protectors (these look great BTW, orange tinted), all the faux stone signs, and the shooter lane protector. Thanks to this thread also ended up getting Pteranodon from Amazon (yet to arrive), and the SuperKit from PinWoofer (great, highly recommend).

With only 333 games played, still getting the flippers dialed in;
Upper right: aligned such that ball just kisses the post, power 215
Right aligned tip to dimple, power 235
Left aligned tip to dimple, power 225
Play field slope set at 7.0° (again, would have never known if the great folks of this thread didn't share the information, I mean the bubble level on the machine is nowhere close!!)

I think I just saw that the flippers (lower) should be slightly sagging, can anyone confirm that this position is better? Thinking of 3D printing a flipper alignment tool; we are talking 1-2° here, tough to do by eye.

Did the launch ramp fix (added 3 washers under the left side). Did some slow-motion videos and the ball would hit the left side the ramp and then air ball after the slope change and hit the helipad return above, loose velocity and not make the half-pipe. With the fix it's >90%. Thanks for the fix.

My latest find, that I haven't seen mentioned here, is the helipad micro-switch screws didn't have any nuts! So a problem would manifest where the switch would work it's way up and start to interfere with the helicopter blades. Took out the factory bolts and replaced with M2 bolts and nuts and works great since. I've seen several others state helicopter rotor problems, I would check the micro-switch such that it isn't loose like mine.

Anyway, great thread, great game, great folks...Thanks!

Just reported the following defect to Stern following an upgrade of my LE from .97 to 1.00. I think someone else mentioned something similar on this forum but can't find it at the moment.

Previous versions of the code have the lower left post come up and stay up for a few seconds, then it would drop, allowing for proper aiming of the smart missile target. In V 1.00 (and possibly .98 which I skipped) the post pops up randomly at some point with the ball nowhere near and then immediately drops, resulting in the smart missile missing 100% of the time.

ViperNation I also am on V1.00 and have not witnessed this problem, but I’ll keep a look out.

Yep it's happened to me when a T-Rex mode is starting and smart missile is qualified, and I first noticed it after 1.00 code. Ball comes down the wire and the post pops up but drops right back down and the ball rolls through while the smart missile countdown starts. Probably a bug that they'll address.

My bug has legs but it looks dumb. The Modfather has much better bugs but the Amber Knob could use a more finished look

This is Modfather’s shooter rod

I am glad I scored one of the originals now. Payed a premium but looks great

Here's what my original looks like. Never really looked closely, but it looks fine to me. Can't believe people obsess over shit like this...legs, proboscis, wtf?

IMG_1362 (resized).jpeg

Who is obsessed? I would have sent mine back to Stern and cried for days maybe weeks if I was obsessed. None of that happened in my experience
