Quoted from MK6PIN:Received, installed today...AWESOME MOD!!! This looks like it belonged from the start....witch looks genuinely creepy, and the smoke effect is outstanding!!! Great, great job....couldn't be happier...GET THIS MOD!!!....mark
Agreed. Very easy install as well. I was a little hesitant on just pulling up on the witch at first, as it felt like it was stuck. Once it starts moving though, it pulls out easy.
Stupid question, but with my monkey mod inbound, wouldn’t it be easier to just prop the door open a little further than stock using the wing guide? Then you could forgo the spacer?
Quoted from rviguet:. I love the real monkey so much better than the pitiful original plastic.[quoted image]
I always give the game a nudge as the monkey is flying down to grab the ball to make the wings really get going. It’s amazing how much better the monkey mod is.
Quoted from Pinzap:It appears that your post is just a very sublime way to get it out to people in Steve's thread that you are ALSO making WOZ mods. At least you didn't come right out and say "Hey guys, check out my mods they are much cheaper." But I'm sure that's the way many people (including myself) read it. Poor form to do this in another modders thread.
“The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten”
Steve makes awesome mods. I was one of the first to receive my witch way back when, and he even sent the well addition after the fact as he wanted everyone to have it. You just can’t find that kind of customer service anywhere.
Quoted from gouveia:[quoted image]
Oh no....please don’t tease gene wilder. We have a WONKA coming and if you start
making mods for that I’ll go broke. LOL

Whatever Steve decides to do, he is always fair and honest. I will stand by that comment whether i make it on the list for this mod or not. I just saw the list and assumed he opened it, as I am sure many of us thought the same that don't read every post in a thread.
Quoted from pinballinreno:Theyre practising for the main event.
Like the first 10 mins of buying a R&M...
It was brutal.

Quoted from 27dnast:He didn't say no!!! The list is ON!!!
gouveia when you're looking for someone to try and fit a sample .... uh-hum... hut into their machine. Let me know! )
If you do one of those, please god don’t make it look like playmobil designed it like the one I saw pics of floating around the forum.
Quoted from PinMonk:You didn't add yourself to the list, creating the next version with you on it. Saying "I'm in" isn't how these lists work.
Can't really complain about fair when you didn't even play the game right.
Technically you didn’t either. Who the hell is MEEEEEEE anyway? LOL
Quoted from beelzeboob:It looks really beautiful in person. Not 3D printed. And the amazing thing is that Steve didnt just pull this design out of his ass...this is the exact crystal ball mount the wicked witch has in the movie. Look it up! Nice work, Steve...I'm in! When are you starting a real list so rai can take me off it?
LOL
Quoted from Manimal:List? Did You say List?????????
1. Manimal
list? we don't need no stinkin' list!
Quoted from etnfrd67:The grey base are the stones that goes around it like in the movie so I think it matches well.
Agreed
Quoted from Rager170:I just dont like how that one part sticks down pretty far from the rest of it. Just seems out of place to me.
Not trying to be rude of course. Just asking questions and being honest..
Quoted from beelzeboob:Oh, great. It's official now.
1.
2.
The rest of you suckers are on your own. And don't take rai off the list or I'll kick your ass with my pencil-thin arms and legs.
Seriously.
Checkmate
Quoted from PinMonk:There's your problem. You're putting your dog down for one, but not yourself? That makes no sense. What's your dog doing with this mod?
Apparently paying for it
Quoted from gouveia:You spelled my name wrong.
And although technically correct...ew.
at least it's on his arm. Could have put it on his inner thigh. ROFL
Quoted from pinballinreno:Looks perfect.
I love the 1 on the display!
Is it working right?
Yup. And it is far easier to see now too!
Quoted from Ericpinballfan:What Glue Did you Use??
Local Lowe’s was out of the recommended JB plastic weld in clear (only had tan) so I went with gorilla instead since it dries clear.
04AD9CAE-33DC-4BB9-939F-39B6ED471A30 (resized).jpeg91E1305B-977E-460D-AD09-3E0CAE8D52A9 (resized).jpegAnd to polish the ball I used novus 3 then 2. I had an extra ball from a warranty issue caused in delivery (ball came off mount and was damaged) but I was able to polish it all out, and hid the chip in the new base.
Quoted from RTS:I quadruple checked my connector, but it looks fine and my CB display is dead. I am wondering if my screwdriver maybe f'd up the back of the display board when I was inserting the screws of the display bracket into the new base.
Any ideas what to check (other than the connector)?
did you skip a post? you have to be careful or you can mis align the connector pretty easy. also, make sure the sd card is still in.
also, make sure the connector isnt upside down
Quoted from Daditude:Random thought...but I love the avatar. We just watched it last night (I've seen it a bunch of times, however)
Go away I’m baitin’
Quoted from Yelobird:Hold on, now I am thinking I just might want to see his video now...
Everyone gawks at an accident on the road. I understand the allure.
Quoted from LukyDuck:Oh, I hope you don’t mind. But I copied your idea with the tress. I always thought they would look better with some green leaves and when I saw your photos, I had to find some myself.[quoted image][quoted image]
you really need to get rid of that witch in a fishtank mod....... lol
Quoted from beelzeboob:...but did you cut the crap out of your hand when trying to extract the crystal ball from the old base? I don't wanna say anything, but it MAY have happened to somebody I know.
(Cue the humiliating photo evidence post by gouveia ....)
I still think we need to see this train wreck.....
Quoted from gouveia:I have the evidence and it is startlingly graphic. Like the footage of Steve Irwin, I feel like I should get rid of it forever.
Probably for the best. Don’t want anyone stumbling across it by accident and asking questions.
Quoted from beelzeboob:Hit up Houdini. He's got a bunch of them he probably won't need.
Savage.
Quoted from rai:I have to say that (must be design tolerance differences) but the screw holes did not line up well for mine and I had to force it in and wasn't sure it would fit at all, and also the way my TV metal bend or whatever made it difficult to sit the ball that close to the actual TV might be a goof 1/4 inch. I am not sure the clarity or the way the image fits in my orb is that great as a result but the image is still better than before thanks to being lined up better with my eye line but the overall image is quite a bit blurry and maybe stretched too far to the edges. I am not complain because it's still much better than the stock set up, I am just pointing out that at least my pin (might be the angle the TV sits on the metal bend so that it's actually impossible to get the flat part very close th the TV.
Overall very impressive but just pointing out that there pins are all built to slightly different tolerances.
Thanks
Mine fell right into place. Did you follow the directions or wing it?
Quoted from beelzeboob:Well, I've seen the prototype, and I don't want to give anything away...but I think gouveia got his inspiration for the Laser Witch from Austin Powers.
[quoted image]
You’ll shoot your eye out kid.
Quoted from Fizz:It's like a list of lists!

But the quest...........
Quoted from 27dnast:MrMikeman's Official Unofficial List For the "Game Changer Witch Mod"
1. MrMikeman
I deem this list the unofficial official unofficial list. Boob didn't make it.
Quoted from 27dnast:Boob was removed from office after it was found he was secretly buying someone else’s *cough* WOZ mods.
Quoted from gouveia:Timmy O’Toole!!! Fantastic.
You just made my day, Jedi master.
A gif a day keeps the doctor away.
Quoted from Jenkins:Beyond all the chicken posts, I’m excited to see Gouveia’s pic of all the “Witch’s Subterranean Dungeon Walls” ( trademark pending)!!!
Isn't saying subterranean dungeon a bit like saying the underground basement?
Quoted from beelzeboob:I get the feeling that gouveia is being modest, the lighting effects are amazing on that thing, and people can't really appreciate just how cool it's going to look until he releases a video. But that's just a guess.
He always is. Nothing wrong with being modest and humble. Let your work speak for itself.
On that note, when are you starting the official list? Also, I still am waiting for my bubble gum and toothpick witch.
Quoted from beelzeboob:The official list gets officially started by the official Lord of All WOZ Mods. As for your bubble gum and toothpick witch, where's my payment, beeyotch?
ROFL, is this a honor system where you pay what you think its worth, or did you send out a bill and i missed it?
Quoted from MrMikeman:Me too! Never got the monkey 2.0 so I’m in on the 3.0!!!
1. Boob
2. 27dnast
3. rai
4. Fizz
5. MrMikeman
Is this the real list yet, if so I am in
Quoted from Manimal:None of us do
I really think the frequent customers should be given advance purchasing options....kind of like advance concert tickets for the fan club! Those that have all issued Gouveia mods have " Golden-Mod" status...................lol
Yes, but another requirement should be to sell your witch 1.0 to another pinsider who wants one and not be a hoarder.
Quoted from gouveia:Do not jones, Jenkins!
I’ll give everyone plenty of warning. We’re still cleaning up final electrical details, just to make sure it works in all the different WOZs.
And I’m officially in the garage learning how to paint these little ladies over and over. So VERY soon. Thanks for your patience.
Quoted from Kkoss24:We’re a bunch of junkies !
I tell my wife this addiction is better than drugs and hookers.
Quoted from gouveia:I've definitely got the itch to paint more. But it's not monkeys.
[quoted image]
That's a lot of pissed off witches.
Quoted from FalconDriver:Boob is trying to sleep.
I knew he went to bed early, but damn.
If boob really missed out, I'll send him my witch 1.0 if he doesn't have that. Doesn't seem right that he misses out on this one.
Quoted from gouveia:Wow. I don't know what to say. I told Tricia we'd get about thirty in half an hour and she just laughed at me.
Thank you so much. I am humbled. I will definitely make more for all of you that signed up. It'll take a little time, but I'll do it.
You guys are the best.
Thank you.
Steve
You rock Steve!
Quoted from beelzeboob:Okay. I love you again.
(PS - I have the complete Gouveia Collection, and now it looks like I'll be okay since he's making more. You're alright, buddy...I REALLY appreciate the gesture!)Thanks, Steve. Ever since Escaleragate, the Xanax has been knocking me out at all hours of the day.
Least I could do for razzing you. Don't want a fellow pinsider to miss out.
Quoted from 27dnast:List of WOZ Owners Faked by a Fake List
1)Wharhed
Poor guy. Never knew what hit him.
Quoted from beelzeboob:He waits for the dog to go to the bathroom, then cleans it off and sends it to me.
so it has happened at least once. LMAO
Quoted from Ericpinballfan:Relax Francis.
Do you want store bought Banquet Frozen Chicken?
Or, do you want Grandma's home cast iron skillet Fried Chicken with all the fixings?
I'll wait for the dinner bell.
I feel like this is a trick question
Quoted from JordanB:Just got my ECLE and need to read through this thread to figure out how to get the best witch mod. Confused about the HarryHoudini version, but I guess there’s a story there?
This one is cast from a hand sculpted masterpiece. The other is 3D printed. I won't go into any other details as it is not my place.
Quoted from mavantix:Awesome! I’m so excited to get mine and finally be done with tube witch!
Ive often wondered why they didn't reuse the mech in wonka For Augustus. Seems more fitting.
Quoted from beelzeboob:Tons, I'm sure. That's why I wanted to get the jump on it.
I guess there is a benefit to get the one the dog ate after all.
apparently Steve is hard at work on these, he usually posts at least once a week. thats good news for all of us.
Quoted from Kkoss24:No worries at all just miss you man .Hope all is well .This is the best thread on pinside I get depressed when it goes silent lmao.
Yup. Gotta keep the thread alive.
you'll be able to score a witch 1.0 soon as the 2.0's roll out. the crystal ball and monkey mod will be hard to come by.
Quoted from fnosm:They bounce off the posts at the foot of the ramp and to the right of the witch.
it can be brutal on some games.
i heard rumor the flying monkey will be facing the other way, so it will be a flying monkey butt that twerks instead of flapping wings
Quoted from d0n:What's a fair price for the 1.0 mod on the used market? Keep in mind, the market is about to be flooded with 250 of them.
Whatever people are willing to pay. I doubt there will be 250 of them though. Lot of people missed out that had 1.0.
Quoted from jedimastermatt:It’s pretty normal for a monkey to routinely lift two balls - unless they been to the vet.
ROFL
Quoted from MrMikeman:I'd say be patient and wait 1-2 months when more folks will have received their 2.0 witch. If buyers aren't jumping on the 200$ used witch then prices will be adjusted accordingly. Of course the opposite could happen and folks fighting over the few witches that will be available will actually raise the price higher.
It's a gamble!
Exactly. They will be worth whatever someone is willing to pay. Not a lot to go around, and a lot of people want them.
Quoted from d0n:I love these informative posts.
Also enjoyed the "it's worth whatever someone is willing to pay" posts.
I also enjoy the people who want something for cheap and don't like to hear that it may be worth more than they had hoped, but continue to convince others they are right. By all means, hold out till someone will sell theirs for what you are looking for.
Which proves they are worth only what people are willing to pay.........so there is that to consider
Quoted from d0n:It is what is is.
Another rolleyes statement. LOL
Well, you have several people who have posted they are willing to sell for 190-200 shipped or plus shipping. Not sure what else you want. If no one buys them, the price will go down. If they are snatched up quick that will be the going rate. Just because the mods are "old 1.0" and "used" doesn't diminish the value. Just ask anyone who owns a BBB.
Friendly advice: Why not just post up a want ad and state what you want to pay? Seems a lot easier then being offended that people don't agree with your point of view.
Quoted from gouveia:“The knob that Grogu kept playing with?”
Good Lord. Carry on, nerds.
It's better than boob talking about playing with his own knob. ROFL
Quoted from titanpenguin:It's better than boob talking about playing with his own knob. ROFL
guess i have to wait till 5am tomorrow when boob wakes up to get a response. ROFL
Quoted from beelzeboob:Douchebag says what? I'm sorry...I was playing with my knob and missed it.
This thread was better when we were discussing fried chicken.
must have insomnia tonight. LOL
Quoted from jedimastermatt:After Ben Solo’s final day at the Jedi temple, we may find that fried Grogu tastes like chicken.
Too soon?
Kinda like little orphan Annie?
Quoted from cleanandlevel:office space that witch
Second! Needs to be recorded too.
Quoted from beelzeboob:For me? The funniest post of the week.
Definitely up there in the top 3.
Quoted from beelzeboob:Not a hater. Just not something I would have done. I totally respect you modding your mod. Just busting your balls.
At least he didn't beadazzle it or put leds in her eyes.
Quoted from beelzeboob:I actually feel badly because I think he took it more seriously than I intended.
I'm sure you will get over it, as I am sure if he has been following this thread that he knows you like to poke fun. Now the question is, what to do about your high estrogen levels....way too emotional today.
Quoted from beelzeboob:That's just the tip of the iceberg.
Oh crap, here come the "just the tip" jokes.
Quoted from beelzeboob:You're not kidding. I had a girlfriend ask me once if that was just the tip. I told her nope...that's the whole damn thing.
Lmao
Quoted from tat2ist:By the way, I repainted my gene Simmons head as well. It’s no Mona Lisa.
[quoted image]
Gotta say, definitely looks more life like.
Quoted from gouveia:It catches on fire. No shit. I put one in years ago (I forget why) and it lit right up. haha.
So don't put it in the microwave.
Because science!
Quoted from gouveia:And I'm definitely not a scientist.
LOL. Performance art it is then
Quoted from beelzeboob:Correct. He's not going back and rerunning anything. If he did, it would devalue the mods people have already bought...and that would piss me right the hell off...
Unless he did a Monkey 2.0. Or Witch 3.0. Or even some munchkin huts. Then I guess I'd have to buy those, too.
Ah, shit...I'm addicted.
Hi, everybody. My name is Randy, and I'm a Gouveiaholic.
Are you trying to quit?
Quoted from Ericpinballfan:Welcome Randy to today's meeting.
You've made the right first step here.
1. Admit you have a Steve mod problem.
Is it really a problem though?
Quoted from beelzeboob:He can get to other 2.0 stuff after he does the munchkin huts.
Poor Steve...people will be hounding him for mods until his last breath. Must be nice to be loved!
Please don't make the munchkin huts look like they came out of a playmobil set.....
Quoted from beelzeboob:Yes...but the house is supposed to be spinning at the top of the tornado, which is smaller than the house in the game, so it's all a matter of perspective based on distance from the object.
Maybe.
You mean like, "the angle of the dangle is directly proportional to the heat of the beat?"
The end all lists for all lists.
1. Ericpinballfan
2. beelzeboob

Quoted from fnosm:Its never too early for another Gouveia list.
*-*-* NEW LIST *-*-*

Quoted from gatordad:I'm getting parched!! Help me here Steve!
Pour a bourbon. It helps with all anxiety.
Quoted from gouveia:So...about that break I need...
Don't listen to boob. Take your well earned break.
Quoted from beelzeboob:Yes. Yes.

A kick ass topper?
Quoted from gouveia:And no. It won't be a topper. Honestly, I don't know why they're suddenly so important, because when I'm playing a game I never look up there. Like EVER.
I like making things that go under the glass.
My bad, poor attempt at a joke. I saw the WOZ topper thread and thought it would be funny to bring over here in this one for a laugh.
Quoted from gouveia:Oh yes. That thread. No comment.
And no need to apologize for a poor attempt at a joke on this thread! I mean, look at all of beelzeboob's posts.
Touché
Quoted from beelzeboob:You're both dead to me.
ROFL. hope you like being haunted. I ain't leaving yet.
Quoted from gouveia:There’s going to be a Rush machine?!?
Nah, that's just some fly by night rumor from boob.
Quoted from beelzeboob:I did. That's why I upvoted you. Really no other reason to.
Not true. Kapow is doing BTTF, supposedly, and I don't think it's a retheme, either. Rush is a completely new game.
lol, I disabled voting. Ignorance is bliss.
Quoted from gouveia:Hey everyone!
It’s been a long time. I hope you're all doing well. I’ve been really busy finalizing my next mod and I can’t wait to share it with you.
But before I do that, I decided to use the rest of the flying monkey parts that I had available and ended up with twenty-one monkeys ready to fly out of my garage and into your games!
I know a lot of you don’t live on Pinside, so I’m giving everyone 15 days to spread the word, mark your calendars and set your alarms.
On Saturday, December 11th, I will open a list at 12pm PST (California time).
The list will stop at 21 because that’s all I have. Seriously. Please do not PM me to get on the list. One monkey per person. And also, do me a favor - please don’t buy one just to flip it. That’s not cool.
Price is $500 plus shipping.
Happy Holidays!
Steve[quoted image]
You're going to make a few people very happy! I've got mine, so I will stand aside and let others have at it!
Quoted from gouveia:Oh Hi Boob! Welcome back.
Taking a break from upvoting insults?
Quoted from RedLineMania:Bummer, not for WOZ. Wouldn't it be cool when the house is spinning a fan would switch on w/ it....
Or a kick ass topper.....
Quoted from MrMikeman:The BOM is affected by how much the licensing costs.
Most expensive licenses end up pretty bare. LZ, SW, Beatles.
I think Rush will be better than LZ but certainly not as good or packed as Godzilla.
Not sure how stern is losing any money on these games with their price increase, and not to mention only running pros and LE's.
Quoted from gouveia:Hey everyone on the list,
My day got away from me with other holiday yuletidey things. I will PM you all tomorrow with all of the info you need, and send them out on Monday.
Also, my wife Tricia packed them all in much bigger boxes this time around, because she didn't want them to get lost in the mail and wanted you to get them before Christmas.[quoted image]
It's a wall o' monkeys
Quoted from gouveia:I just took it out of the game to see the difference. I couldn't wait to put it back in.
I say that to my wife, too.
Quoted from wozmod3r:My monkey is 1 state away. He’s a traveling Monkey - Cally to Mi. Was going to be here today but this BS thing called weather delayed him until Monday. Can hardly wait! Tis Better to have one coming than not! I was lucky as well. Just happen to log on about 10 days before go-live ….and it was a long 10 dayz
Phantom monkey syndrome can be a PITA
Quoted from beelzeboob:He'll come back in a week to tell us he's got some great news: he just saved a ton of money on his car insurance by switching to Geico.
Or offer us an extended warranty on our cars.
Quoted from jedimastermatt:I wouldn’t rush to a conclusion. There are a lot of possibilities on what he could be working on. Even if it seems like time stand still, Steve will announce it when it’s ready.
I think it’s a mod for the upcoming Men Without Hats pin. Safety Dance multi ball will be the shit.
Sooo….it’s time to start a new list?
Quoted from jedimastermatt:You can make a list if you want to
You can leave your friends behind
'Cause your friends don't list
And if they don't list
Well, they're no friends of mine
and say we can list
we can list
everything's out of control
so here we go!
1.jedimastermatt
2.titanpenguin
Quoted from gouveia:I've still got a lot of work to do, so don't worry about lists yet. Just watch the thread, and I'll post more soon.
Awe man. I came here to get on the list.
Quoted from Kkoss24:I don’t know about the rest of you ,but I’ve been restless since the official announcement of this mod for our beloved IMDN .Last night I lay awake ,re reading the glorious posts while trying to channel my inner Pink Panther .While I was studying the pro and premium playfields side by side a glorious vision came to me .It all made sense .The clues had led me to one place on the premium/le playfield where the magic will happen .That place is ……………I’m not telling .I’m not spoiling all the fun .Strap it in the show is about to begin .
It’s pretty obvious. It’s a new topper!
