What city do you live in? My son spent last Fall studying in Moscow.

Quoted from codered9394:

Im looking for set of nos spinner decals if anyone has a set. I agree with everyone here that the aftermarket set will not move the ball like the originals. Wish someone could make a set.

I recall Todd Tuckey having access to the correct ones that are like the originals.

#2985 4 years ago

Yes. He is also the owner of TNT Amusements in Southampton PA

Quoted from Spacemanratso09:

Picked up a Whirlwind today that came available locally
It’s a nice example and I am stoked but I am having one problem
First

ple games fan never came on
Next couple games fan was working
Turn off,come back,couple games fan not working
Any ideas where to start ?
Any insight would be appreciated the game is new to me as far as owning one

One of Todd Tuckey’s ( TNT Amusement) Whirlwind videos highlights this very issue. It was a cold solder joint in the assembly that is on the inside of the back box... where the fan wiring comes through.

Quoted from Spacemanratso09:

Thank you so much ! Look that up,reflowed the fuse block all good now thanks!

Terrific, glad it was the right solution! Todd knows his stuff.

#3484 4 years ago

You might shoot an email to Todd Tuckey. In one of his WW videos he emphasizes the need for the textured style discs rather than the decals. He may know of a source from which you can buy.

One of Todd Tuckey’s ( TNT Amusements) whirlwind videos, of which there are at least a couple, addresses this issue. In his example it was a cold solder joint, not a fuse.

What modifications if any, have you all done with the pop bumper caps and the associated lighting. I’ve seen clear and also the traditional with led disks.

#4088 3 years ago

They look great, way better than traditional. How do you think they would look with clear caps? So, colored LED rings with clear caps ?

I have been searching for a new translight and coming up empty. Does anyone have an extra one or know where I can find one? A guy on EBay is selling a NOS for $185 which is out of my price range.

#4121 3 years ago

Thanks, I’ll check it out. I’m also waiting to hear back from a Todd Tuckey source.

#4122 3 years ago

In case anyone else here is looking for one, Classic Arcades, Inc. has them ....sending one out to me now.

#4125 3 years ago

Joined the club this weekend. Many thanks to the team at TNT Amusements!

Quoted from Flynnyfalcon:

Looks mint! congrats.

Thanks, the TNT gang deserve the credit. This game is loads of fun!

#4130 3 years ago

I just reached “Mega Door” ( I think that is what it is called) ....such fun.

#4132 3 years ago

So that is first the million shot, then what...?

#4135 3 years ago

Where did you get your game cards?

Need a little help with the extra ball stand up target. It doesn’t reset when turning on the game, at the start of a new game or between balls. It only resets during coil test or ball search. Once it’s down after one of those two, it stays down. I am no tech, so hope it’s a simple fix! Thanks!

#4152 3 years ago

You da man!!! Thanks so much. I wiggled the connector and the pulsing noise began to sound so, recycled game and now it works. I sure appreciate it!

Ask Todd Tuckey at TNT Amusements. He just replaced mine with the good ones.
