Just unboxed this two weeks ago. Plays great except the ball is getting stuck at the upper playfield, right at the top where it should roll down to the flipper. Usually happens when doing a right flipper skill shot or sometimes from the jesus kicker. Needs a really good shake to get it to drop which usually ends in a tilt.

Is this a common issue? I tried searching pinside but it's such a mess over there sifting through all the posts. Any information appreciated, man.
 
Not had that problem with mine either. I just unboxed mine about 3 weeks ago also. Let us know what you find. Like LittleLarry said, check your incline and be sure it's level side to side.
 
That may be it. I did not have a level when we set it up. I have put legs on a hundred games and usually just do it by feel. The old wms games had a bubble in the shooter lane but tbl does not have one.

Thanks for the replies. Love the game so far.
 
It was only at 5.5. Have it closer to 7 now, no ball sticks on the few games we played. The vuk did get stuck closed after & was popping non stop. Power cycle cleared it, hopefully it was just from moving it around.

Now I just have to get better at the bowling mini game.
