Good stuff! I’m also watching that shooter rod with interest. Also curious to see what kind of blade art might eventually show up for this game.

Quoted from romulusx:

Has anyone installed Hookedonpinball Wonka backboard lighting?
Can you explain intall?

I've been trying unsuccesfuly to order it for a few weeks now. Pinside keeps rejecting it for unknown reasons and it is still not listed on his site. I really need some lighting in the back (mine is an SE) and I would prefer it to be interactive with the rest of the show. It seems Hooked's option is the only one like this so far.

I installed my Factory Tube mod last night. Looks good, though it was a bit of a pain to do (I just removed all of that extra clear plastic to the left of the factory. I kind of like how it looks without it). I'm not 100% sure how I feel about the "tubing" included, which I did have to trim, and I had to tweak it a bit to keep the ball from getting stuck on the "Danger" tube. Overall, it is a big improvement to that side of the playfield and does help with the relative lack of sculpts on this pin (as compared to, say, WOZ).

I also installed mirror blades from PinballDecals. It was a little aggravating to do on the right side, as the blades didn't want to fit at first, and the hinge pin was almost impossible to remove. The space is pretty tight on either side, but they DO work on Wonka, and make a big improvement to the overall look.
