Quoted from sohchx:

Three years to late for me CPR. At least I saved $500

I sold mine from the last run and put off the resto until I get the new one. Sometimes it pays to have a backlog....

#1628 6 years ago
Quoted from goingincirclez:

Hmm, I got the confirmation email in Feb 2016 but haven't heard a thing since.
I understand communication has never been CPR's strong suit. How long should I wait before getting nervous?

They give us 7 days before the slot goes to someone else, so at least a few more days...

Quoted from jahbarron:

Just got the email this morning. Pre-ordered on 2/25/16, as well.

Mine was the same day 2/25/16

It's here - some good some bad. Good - better quality on inserts and best clear I've seen from this shop. Bad - 3 handling marks run up most of the pf. I do extra clear, so for me in the long run this won't matter. Also 3 small spots in the light blue on top that got jacked when they silkscreened. Luckily not in an area that will be seen.

Quoted from TheOnlyest:

Post 1649 on the previous page, shows a PF that one guy has recieved, that line in the gradient all the way across the PF is highly visible in the photo. Very disappointing how CPR's quality of most of thier recently released products is very poor, yet still quite expensive. No way in hell i'd drop $850 for this PF, that line would drive me nuts, piss me off, and be very distracting everytime I played the game. That kind of $ would be much better spent on a restoration of my original PF. Luckily my PF is nice and not in need of a swap or restoration!!

Yes it is there and noticeable if you look at it - I don't feel it really sticks out unless you are looking for it.

I tried a quick polish with novus, it made it better, but didn't get rid of it. So I'm bringing it to my clearcoater to sand and clear.

#1682 6 years ago
Quoted from Pinphila:

The line across the lower playfield really bothers me. Has anyone heard from CPR about this? To me, this isnt a "gold" playfield. NOS playfields did not have a line.

First time I've seen this on a playfield from them. But I have to say the clear and inserts are a lot better than prior runs...

#1688 6 years ago

Those are the same on mine as well - first time I've seen that from a CPR field

Quoted from Kawydud:

Hopefully the back glasses are nicer this time around. I wasn't thrilled with the colors on the first one I got, the translite actually looked nicer installed.

I hate to say this - but it was pointed out to me a while ago. You won't be thrilled with the colors on the new pf. Compare them to the original run or the original in your game. Not sure what happened but when I compared them it I was like wtf?

#1741 6 years ago

check this out. new run on left. Guess someone threw out the mix numbers after the first run.

Quoted from Capinball:

Ugh!! That f'kin line across the lower portion!! Eats away, every time I see it. Wish I had just forfeited my spot, however, their picture gallery was not up until a week after they requested my money.

I can live with the line, but that light blue just irritates me.

Right now I'm swapping a power play for a guy who had a cpr repro - spending hours sanding out the excess clear in the 10 star inserts. I'm just not in a CPR mood today.

#1746 6 years ago
Quoted from Coyote:

Apparently they also used the wrong color 'Shoot Again' insert?

Ah, you noticed that - wondered if anyone would.

#1748 6 years ago

The one on the right is correct and from the first run they did.

#1774 6 years ago
Quoted from merccat:

Yeah Addams sounds amazeballs! Fortunately after that they don't have any other playfields I'm interested in in the pipe at the moment so can sit on the sidelines a while.

I got the TAF email too - sounds interesting, we shall see.
