I bought aftermarket players for my machine. I dont feel the need to paint the cabinet or anything else other then the players. No more USA Canada for me, both sets will be sandblasted and repainted different teams. I know i am getting the red Wings, dont know the other team though, the wife made the order an they are wrapped under the tree. I do know that the other set in the box is not Toronto, due to white jerseys, they will be the first set painted.

Spencer, not my work, i found the logos and am letting someone else size and print them out in a high gloss durable sticker. I only used a few that are actually on the dasher boards, and i added some Dubbbs flavor. Other strip will be shown when installed

Thats around the market price, give or take a few hundy..... remember, these games have been in production since the 80's, still available new, and most people buy them for keeps.

Many have ask where i bought my jumbotron for above my chexx, so i did some looking, found these.

First item is a jumbotron scoreboard octogon

Second link below is the one like mine.

When mine was bought, it was used, and i had to snipe it. They now seem to be available for some teams, including the one i bought. These look great in the gameroom, but put a reflection on the dome, thus i put a piece of cardboard in, looks great.

Maybe Robin will give us a sub form for super chexx, i would bet quite a few pinside members have them. Kinda like gameroom bling

I chit you not, gets more plays then the pins at every party except the pinball guys, then it becomes a great coat hanger.

Quality is lacking though, really disappointed with my purchase. The stickers they use dont match the color of the players, thus sticking out. If you want quality, go with the ebay link, if your like me and just dont care, ice players look good for what they are worth and a hell of alot cheaper.

Say Taylor, how bout changing the title of this thread, super chexx owners

I have talked to this man, and he buys his parts directly from chexx. For a new set of players @ $15.95 each comes to around $95 plus their shipping policy comes into play ( $50 for shipping and a refund back for overcharge of shipping). I dont think he is making a killing on them, but compensation from making and waiting for the order all takes time. He also has to bead blast every player so the paint sticks to the pieces.

I honestly cant believe theres only a $5 mark up on these from the factory which for me made it a no brainer to grab a set no matter what the quality. When its all said and done, the only person who notices the lack of quality is the owner of the game, as the guest playing it only love the fact that their team is in the game and will never see past that.

We talked about the numbers, he basically makes a sticker and clears it onto the players. I dont think he is willing to sell the numbers as a service as it will kill his painting services, you can ask but thats what ive got from his conversation. He did offer to do the numbers on chexx supplied players, but due to cost, i declined.

As a hockey fan and a Red Wings fan, how could i choose only 6 players....... Old school, current, history ect ect ect. Numbers could be a bigger pain in the ass. Original six guys have tough choices compared to the expansion years.

I do plan on having multiple teams, and the only way i could afford them is to not customize them any more then what ICE does at the factory.
