Quoted from Rarehero:Here's something I haven't seen discussed much, but it absolutely affected the flipper feel and perception of the remakes:
Many of the MMr's were built with the wrong flipper plunger. They had leftovers from Vacation America that had the B/W part number but were in fact 1/8 in longer...this results in the flipper not going up as high.
Mine had this "slightly off feel" but I bumped up the strength and got used to it. Last year someone told me the plunger story, so I bought some new ones and changed them out. Sure enough, mine were 1/8 in. longer! Now it feels legit.
So - if anyone feels MMr is off, they might be right if it has the wrong plungers on it. Not sure this timing thing has anything to do with it tho.
Is this actually true? My buddy has an MMR and the flipper angle when raised seems lower than I'm used to. But I also thought that WPC95 flippers didn't raise as high as the coil stops were longer making it harder to cradle?
