The Stern Star Wars hype thread. THAT'S NO MOON!

:(
Is that unboxed yet? Has your scrotum felt the cool steel of the lock bar yet?

Oh my. I thought he liked to put his butt-ox on the games, not the scroat, but I could be mistaken.

:D

I am sure more pics of what's in the box will be forthcoming.

I think Dave was setting it up tonight.
 
Hahahahaha! Loving the comments!

Well, the plan was to lug the whole box upstairs, unbox it at the top, shimmy it into the game room, and then play.

It didn't quite work out that way. The people who were going to help me take it upstairs bailed (legit reasons, so no animosity), so at about 9:00, I said "f@$& it!" and just unboxed it downstairs so that I could play it.

It'll go upstairs tomorrow or Sunday.

This game is a blast!

I'm so happy right now.
 
That cab is beautiful....may make up for lack of box pics... ;)

Was there different art to choose? I really like what you have though! Just thought I saw others and don't really know the ins and outs of the different models. :(

And of course, how is it playing?!? :)
Cool pic up. Love the back glass!

Thanks! It plays great. Very fast! By far the fastest game I've ever owned. The right scoop needs a little adjusting. Sometimes it likes to fire the ball straight down the middle. Could be a leveling issue. I'll dial it in once it's in its final resting place upstairs.

I'm going to install a shaker motor later today, along with a couple of mods.

Yeah, there are three different models (Pro, Premium, and LE), and each has its own art package. The Premium has my favorite translite of the three by a long shot. I also really dig the AT-AT side art, which is the side that'll be visible once it's in the game room (the other side: meh).

I'm all about villains, so the Premium was the obvious choice for me (plus it has the same features as the LE, but with a better price tag). The Pro has a blended theme with heroes and villains, and the LE has a Millennium Falcon theme (but comes with Pro and Premium translites as well). I saw some pictures on Pinside of an LE with a Premium translite, and it looked badass. That's definitely the coolest looking version I've seen, but I'm not plopping down an extra $1800 or so for one.
 
Nice!!! How are you liking it?

A lot! Damn, is it fast though. I really liked the Pro artwork but I wanted the options of the Premium. When I ordered the machine, I asked if they could get me a Premium with a Pro artwork package. Of course they said no, so I just bought a Pro translite. That will be good enough for me. One other thing that annoys me is when the ball ejects from the Mystery, it's an automatic drain. It shoots it directly out and down the middle.

Good choice -- I really cant imagine this game without the wire ramps and hyperspace loop. I put the Pro translite in ours as well.

I think the AT-AT side art is badass! The other side... yeah, not so much. Overall, I'd be inclined to agree about the Pro having better cabinet art (but the Premium has better art on the head).

I dig both translites, but prefer the Premium. I'm a big villain guy, so I love that the Premium's entire art package is centered on the Empire.

I picked up a Pro translite as well, but only as decor in my game room. I'm definitely sticking with the Premium on the game.

Fair enough ;)

Yeah, me too. Sweet.
 
Oh, shit! I never posted the mods I added to mine. Shame on me. I've only added a few, but here they are (shaker motor installed as well):
