Thanks for the nice comment!

Gottlieb really nailed it out of the park with this one. Can’t wait to see what they come out with next!

Uh oh I have some terrible news

Loxly knows how to hit her cues.

Awesome! I know it was in a sorry state, but what an amazing find. I wish I could find something like that for 200 bucks. Do you have an estimate on how much you've spent total?

Thank you! Let’s see… the new all-in-one board was nearly $500 itself. 5 new displays probably around $250 total, $100 for new plastics, $100-ish for new rubbers and LEDs, $100 for legs. Probably a final $100 for all the miscellaneous parts like connectors, pins, wires, coils, etc. All in I would estimate around $1200 total with almost half of that just being the all-in-one board, but that was definitely worth it and made the game pretty much bulletproof, no fiddling around with unreliable 40 year old boards.

By Pinside average price it's still a steal! Nicely done.

So…what’s your next pinball project gonna be? Pins somehow multiply. 😂 Cat/pinball story. I was waxing my Doctor Who playfield. My cat jumped on the playfield and I shooed him away. He left a nice 3” set of claw marks across the Masters face when he jumped out. Kind of upsetting.

Funny you mention them multiplying... I'm planning to make a video about it but I picked up a Lethal Weapon 3 somewhat recently! I couldn't resist an affordable price for a decent DMD game. It doesn't need a full restoration but it definitely could use some work: an LED conversion, the DMD has a dead line, and it needs to be cleaned. That cat story is horrifying! I'll definitely make sure they are secured before taking the glass off now haha
