I've had the call. My Prem arrives tomorrow! So effing excited for my first NIB.
Hadfields knocked me out of bed this morning at 7.30! They'd tried calling yesterday but only had my landline number which no longer exists. Already set up and had a few games, love it. Wrong legs on atm, will be getting steelwork powder coated shortly.
I'm sure it will be this week. I've spoken to them this morning and they're definitely coming down South to do a Kent, Essex & Surrey run.
Seeing that Grohl was popping up everywhere at Glastonbury I wouldn’t be surprised he’s delivering and setting up each and every new Foos pin this week , maybe with a little impromptu gig in everyone’s driveway 
He never stops !

Martins delivering mine along with Reading, Pangbourne, Frimley, Fleet (me) and one nr Guildford.
Well I was going to go with this 2 tone iridescent finish but now the machines here I'm not so sure. There is some blue in the artwork, and purple but a lot of red!
Mine is being delivered on Thursday this week. 
New code! Just as well, I experienced the very first bug mentioned in the fix list list night.

Glad they fixed that bug, had to keep going into diagnostics during the game to lower the forks. Can also turn match sequence back on.
Bomb mod change looks good too. The more I play this game the more I’m enjoying it. Can’t wait for wizard mode

Had the forks issue on location, was very annoying as it seemed the only fix was to play out the game and start a new one
Very minor niggle, does anyone else think there's a sound effect missing when using the action button to spot shots? Compared to Deadpool with its very nice BOOM when you use it FF button is very lackluster, you'd hardly know you'd pressed it if you didn't look at the screen to see what it gave you ( like I said, very minor niggle).

Love it. No idea on the rules yet, just really happy smashing balls around - fnarr. New ones on the way. Stern balls look like bearings off a 10 year old train.
Need to go back in and setup wifi and will have a go at updating code.

Funny you should say that, I'm recording my pinball comparison video at the moment and the Stern balls are the worst by a county mile.
Stern's parsimony is getting ridiculous. So on a new Stern you need to replace the balls, coil stops, speakers and add cooling fans to the flipper coils. There's probably more I've missed.

What are everyone’s replacement balls of choice and where are you getting them? I used to go to Pinball Bazaar for Ninjas, so that’s a no-go now.
Still waiting for a Hadfields call. Anticipation all part of the fun though.

Hi mate, just spoken to Hadfields and they're now saying Monday. Obviously I can't say when they're doing yours but there is a run down South scheduled for Monday.
As for balls . . . . . .
The deterioration of a Stern pinball is shocking and causes damage to the playfield. Pinsound multiball and Silverjet are the best having tested a few.
Are Pinsound balls suitable for games with magnets?
