  1. Outruns back in action!

    After having a broken B gear for the last year, I finally got around to ordering a replacement from Steve23 a couple of weeks ago and got it slapped on yesterday! I'm thrilled beyond words that the game is back in action. Next repair job is the Truckstop pin and then the gameroom will be back...
  2. Venture...discuss

    If you like the game, why? I've had the game for a few years. Love the cab...love the bezel...love the side art and the marquee...hate the gameplay. I know there is something I'm missing here...
  3. VA Beach -- 2 empty cabs for trade

    I'm moving and got to get rid of two project cabs. Not looking for much for both of them. Willing to take a few Neo Geo MVS carts, a couple of jamma boards, spare parts, whatever. I'm pretty flexible, so make an offer. One is a partially empty Xenophobe cab -- controls are gone, CPO is...
  4. Fishtails, High Speed, and a MVS 4 slot -- SE Va CL ad

    Fishtails, High Speed, and a MVS 4 slot -- SE Va CL ad http://norfolk.craigslist.org/vgm/2001430261.html Great guy to deal with. I got a FP pin from him and got to check out these also and they were beautiful.
  5. First tempered glass explosion :-(

    Pulled the glass out of the pin to do some work on it and it exploded in my hands minutes ago. Fortunately it was a piece I was planning on replacing. Like others have said, it is a strange feeling holding something solid one second and nothing the next. And dang does that glass keep popping...
  6. Slingshot on/off option - why?

    I noticed the other day that I have a slingshot on/off option. Pretty self explanatory. I turned them off and the game was VERY boring. What is the point of this option besides making the game insanely easy? 1 ball tournaments trying to eliminate any random variables is the only vague reason...
  7. Plastics price guidance

    I found someone parting out a pin and they have all the plastics I need. There are no reproductions available. All together about 6 plastics and a large ramp. Anyway, he wants me to make an offer and I don't want to come across as a lowballing jerk. edit... Thanks! Using the info below...
  8. Ever seen a STUN Runner T Shirt?

    Anybody ever see this mythical shirt? Have a picture? Win one? Know someone that won one? Etc? Etc? Really curious what it looked like. I will probably be disappointed when I see it, but that's life. Seeing the shirt contest displayed on the cab drives me nuts wanting to see it (which...
  9. LCDs in pinballs, why not?

    Just curious if anyone knows why under playfield LCDs have not been used? You see loads of pachinkos with LCDs, seems like a 12" or so LCD mounted under the playfield could be pretty bad ass if done right. So, the question is...why is nobody doing it then???
  10. Disappearing balls

    Have you ever had balls that just "disappeared" from the playfield while in play? Then searched like crazy only to find the ball in a really odd spot that the ball shouldn't have been able to get to? Just finished getting my Truck Stop to playable condition and have "lost" 3 balls in the last...
  11. Truck Stop plastics question

    http://cgi.ebay.com/Bally-Truck-Stop-Pinball-Machine-Playfield-plastics-/150458204151?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item230801fff7 Where would these plastics go on this playfield? http://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=2667 I've looked all over my playfield and stared at the playfield...
  12. Working Ms Pac PCB

    Working original Ms Pac PCB and cage, would like to get 85$ shipped in the US. Will be flexible within reason to get this sold.
  13. Xenophobe part out

    This machine is beyond saving....it breaks my heart to do this, but someone tried to save it besides me and gave up. Water damaged cab beyond saving. Anyway, LMK what parts you are interested in and we'll work out a price. 2 mobos, 1 working, 1 not and everything else is currently available...
  14. School me on coils

    Coil replacement question I need to order some new coils and the coils on the left side of the pin are different then the right side of the pin. So what I'm trying to figure out is what exactly the coil numbers printed on the coils actually mean. I'll post exact coil numbers in a little bit...
  15. Let's play "Guess that pin!!!"

    Local CL ad...guess the pin from the ad. No cheating and finding the ad / contacting the seller. Not interested in finding out to buy it, just having some fun.
  16. Outhole switch question

    The outhole microswitch has gone bad on my Truck Stop and I can't find a replacement. It has a long arm with a roller on the end. All I can find online are the shortie armed rollers for sega/stern with the roller. Maybe my search skills suck, so could someone point me in the right direction.
  17. 60-1 or 1069-1 with a 13" VGA monitor

    I am getting an open frame 13" VGA monitor (waiting on the mail) and am planning on building a countertop cab for it. The question is should I go with a vertical mount and do the 60/1 or a horizontal mount and 1069-1 with only 3 or 4 button games and less enabled. I'm leaning towards the 1069...
  18. 1" pinballs -- where can you buy them???

    Browsing RGP and it seems that Truck Stop shipped with 1" pinballs. Apparently the game plays a lot faster with the smaller balls. Want to try it out but can't find them. Someone point me in the right direction. 15/16" balls apparently don't work that well though.
  19. Xenophobe part out

    Probably parting out a Xenophobe -- main PCB tested and verified non working. Don't think this one is worth saving. Checking interest on the parts and trying to line up who wants what.
  20. Firepower LED flasher question

    Anybody successfully put them in? I just got the rest of my playfield LED kit from Terry (PBL -- already called him -- great guy) and, well the flashers don't flash -- they just stay on...put the incandescent flashers back in and they flash properly. This one has both me and Terry stumped. Any...
