I spent about 2 hours playing yesterday and found it very enjoyable. I did however not like the right ramp because its very very very hard to get up there, even with the right power the ball might hit the top of the ramp and bounce back down. The magnet in the middle needs to be adjusted if possible because its slightly raised and affects the roll of the ball on occasion. Still trying to learn the rules but I got most of it down now. It looks great as well. Im actually holding with Sterns tech support to ask about the ramp to see what they say.
 
If you visit:

Watch the video
Below the video is 4 pictures. If you click on the second pic in from the left it'll show you the playfield.

I simply wish Stern would stop "rebranding" prior machine ideas. I haven;t played IM but there's a strong familiarity to prior games such as Austin Powers. Can;t wait to play it though.
 
I played IM over the weekend and was not impressed at all. The digital display was horrible and the middle of the playfield could have used anything at all, what a waste of space. For being a new game you think they would have made it more enjoyable. In my mind the only thing they did right was the backglass.
 
The first thing you might want to do is fun an update. Apparently an update was just released in the last day or two that makes all the difference in the world.
 
update on the right ramp, the tech said they changed design after shipping and the left flipper will use a more powerful coil so you can actually make it up the ramp. They are sending me a couple and ill install when i get them and see if it fixes the problem. Ive had nothing but fun playing this machine. I just wanna know how to get the extra ball i got on my first game and havent been able to duplicate since. I guess ill go see if stern has more info on the site.
 
HEres some pictures, some good some bad.

Compared to these prices.

This is for local people with a 2 year parts and labor warranty.

He aint making much at all. I know what cost is as well as others im sure. Looks like they charge for shipping as well. Pretty much all internet companies will be within $100 dollars of eachothers pricing. There is only so low you can go, certain vendors wont allow you to go under a certain price.

Local or not Wow!! And I thought the $5,300 price tag was high on the one I played! He'll definitely be sitting on those for awhile especially that Lord of the Rings...More power to him if he gets that!
