OK, been looking for the best mods for Monster Bash, Attack from Mars and Cirqus Voltaire...

Any suggestions?
 
This is a really subtle mod - but I changed all the flasher domes on my CV to purple. They're yellow from the factory. Purple flashers just really work well with the art package, IMO. Also - I've got 2 cannon balls in the backbox...you can set the cannon to fire at a faster rate...and with 2 balls in there, it's pretty much constantly firing, making that feature a bit cooler.

CV: alternating colored bulbs (purple and green--not LEDs) for the clear marvel inserts, maybe blue for the center. A few more colored bulbs for GI (I used blue 555's under the slings, and red bulbs under the left and top orbit plastics). Purple flippers with yellow rubbers. Maybe substitute a metal bell for the plastic circle in the backbox. The idea of 2 cannonballs is interesting. And there are many neon tubes with different colors (incl. multicolored ones) from Bay Area Amusements.

Love the flasher dome idea!
 
I am looking more for mods that are already done and ready to install in the games. I love the LED idea for the martians, just would like to find a place that I can just buy and replace.

Cosmetic stuff (lights, starposts, etc) are basic and can be done relitively easy.

I am looking for the "cool" mods like the AFM topper that was posted earlier. I want it!!! (without having to make it) ;)

Hang the stuff I sent you next to the CV, LOL

:D

Wish I had a CV :(

Check the link Raikus posted. Might be worth an email, see if the guy will do them.


As for the red-eyed Martians, Gary is still doing the mod, but sparingly. If you send him your existing Martians, he'll convert them for $25 a piece (shipping not included) — both Attack from Mars and Revenge from Mars varieties. Gary can be reached by email.
 
IS the shaker motor really worth it? From my understandment, there is no "code" for it to recognize. Hell, the subwoofer makes the whole dmn game vibrate anyways! :D
 
It is perfectly integrated with the code for afm , the kit includes the board for it. Best shaker to date IMO. Ask around, check old rgp opinions.
