Better than the horrible insider connected insert!, now to get it made correct size!
I’ve all but finished a full JAWS set of protectors and was wondering if any owners have had airballs around the fishing reel.
Someone stateside has made a airball protector that sits between the targets but I thought integrating it into my reel plastic may be a better solution.
@Chaggers my next door neighbour said he has actually experienced a few airball in that area so could be an option.
Any owners feedback appreciated
Black line is original and blue my 1.5mm oversize one with extended protection at the targets.
The right one is how I intend to make as proto for @Chaggers to test for me. It will also make the protector a lot stronger at the targets.
I can see these being damaged down the line pun intended.

I’ve watched a lot of streams of jaws col and I can confirm have seen a lot of balls hit the metal rail right in front of the reel and fly up, oftern landing on surrounding plastic and rolling back down to the pf.
This seems like a great idea col.
Did you get chance to compare my set to the pro?
Up to now there doesn’t seem any difference to pro TBH although I’ve a couple left to do tomorrow.
BTW the person that drew and cut your set needs either a set of new specs or maybe needs to take a little more time and have some pride in his work. I’ll say no more
I’ve done mine from the original Pro set loaned from @malcolmplaster but I’ll compare to yours when finished.
Hopefully my set will be fitted some point tomorrow night to check for fit and to see if any issues crop up.

Oh dear
that’s not good is it. Looks like I’ll defo be needing a set from you col 
Always get your plastics and protectors from Col, none of the US suppliers take the time and care that Col does.Oh dear
There was even one guy a few years ago stateside cutting protectors by hand, they where that bad they would of looked smoother made from broken glass
Great to get a few games in on Jaws Pro at Tilt today. Cheers Kirk @Tilt_Birmingham for the games, the pointers, and the absolute thrashing

Managed a few game on the Jaws premium at Funland yesterday.
It's okay, some quite tight shots and a bit hard to follow sometimes because the inserts are so far back on the playfield.
Not great flow for me, could just be me. A lot of movies scenes - but I could skip those. Not a fan of Drefuss's call outs.
I think you need a fair bit of time to master the shots to get a good flow going. Could be good if the code keeps progressing.
The playfield didn't feel that empty because you're always looking so far back. Definitely not as empty as the Venom pro I played afterwards.
Not. As good as Foo Fighters for me.
Also played Bond 60th there - which was good but 25k it ain't.

I’ve got one in NE and can put you up if it helps.
One of my users recently asked me to make some custom cards for him. Until he asked me for them, I didn't know this pinball existed. This was a couple of months ago.

Posting this here as the Jaws pins have been arriving in the UK.
I've got a few more Gary Mods left that I'm planning to sell before moving onto other stuff so anyone interested on this forum can get one for 55£ (down from 75£) + shipping.
Can do with or without custom text on the tube.
Happy JAWS days to the new owners!

Ok here is something cool i think we will all like ..
Mirroed stern jaws backglasses...
I believe these will be the same as the RFM ones i was showing earlier. £300 plus shipping. Not cheap but quality items, and in the context of the game costs not bad.

Finally got to play Jaws at Funland at the weekend.
Apart from the place being closed when I turned up for a kids party and then not re-opening when it was supposed to as the party was extended (note - don't go at the weekend), I finally got in and had a few games on Jaws. Thought it was excellent. Obviously still don't know the code/rules yet but the shots we great, layout great and just felt 'right'. Imagine all those on here that have one are extremely pleased. Another Elwin classic.
As a side note, loaded some credits into Bond 60th only to plunge the ball to find it broken with rubbers broken and the balls getting permanently stuck on the playfield. Bloke next to e commented that it's always broken. Some of the other machines weren't playing well either so doubt if I'll make the trip again.

Can you do the pro (movie poster) version without the jaws on the sides?
Agreed, don't mess with a classic.
To be clear i haven't created these, i am just sharing the info to see if there's a purchase opportunity for us in the uk. They are made in europe
and yes i dont like the jaws at the sides either!! lol

If you can maybe feed that back in Jim, I would certainly be up for a pro (movie poster) version if it was a copy of the Stern translite logo and all,
