Awesome.. good luck, hope you find this amazing machine.
Wow good luck with all this maintenance stuff. Be sure to let us know how the UV kit is on TNA, will look superb I think.
well i’m back on the titans but only because of the UV
Ive somehow gained @Colywobbles sticky right flipper button too since it’s been sat in the summerhouse - Might need more acclimatising so will see how we are tomorrow but for now feast your eyes on this

Much appreciated - i have also replaced the pop bumper body and skirt for a black one. Just need to refit the led back into the pop. have bought a clear top but i think unless stumblor invents something the opaque one is where its atWow.. that looks superb mate
I love pimping this as much as playing it
Oh never noticed the bumper body and skirt.
This game only now needs the final icing on the cake with the Pop Bumper, @stumblor please sort it out, no excuse you have the game

Oh nice, the LED in the Pop now matching the playfield LED sequence ?
I have that same pink fluorescent in stock but IMO it doesn’t suit TNA as the stock ones are BOSS imo.
I did fit them to my BM66 CW edition which suited the look though.

When the guy who makes the plastics for pinball shares your game and is as keen to make you a custom upgrade
Add in a little UV and we get ….
Thanks so much @Colywobbles ,

Interested to know peoples opinions on the original versus the 2022 CE, is it worth the extra ? Condition being equal is a used original worth the same as a CE ?
I Have CE and not even sure if differences apart from them adding Flo Protectors and powder coated armour and speaker panel.
I guess an original gonna have a ton more plays as they been out a few years now and I’ve played a few that were sited.
Whereas the CEs are probably in the hands of collectors like myself so low play and cared for.
So it basicly comes down to price and @Jmac had 4 after his at £8k so there’s a guide to what you gonna pay for one.
Originals like CEs don’t come up very often so the problem is more actually getting either.
I value mine around 8.5 but it’s not for sale and think it would be hard to pry an original from anyone under 7k but try a wanted ad to see what gets offered.

Personally I think the CE would be worth more, with having the extra's over the original. I would not have thought an original would be worth the same as the CE.
I have a CE, I purchased a new one as I could not find an original for sale.
Had I found an original and went on to see a CE for sale, I would even upgrade to the CE. Why, because I love the game and want the best OEM pimped model available.
Both will be difficult to find, so grab either one if you can.

Thanks both

Original didn't even have the shaker as standard iirc. CE had pretty much every upgrade from the factory.

Update on the ruddy flippers. Decided to swap back to stock though installed Stern shaft clamps as can’t use the keyed ones and i’ve left in the metal bushes. I’ve still got the power setting on 20 - stock setting still too strong.
Given the fact that i’ve had a complete flipper assembly out of Spooky and it made no difference and then playing @Jmacs before he sold it in the league meet we had the same issue arise the problem was solved by fitting small washers under the front bracket allowing the plunger to slide in and out of the coil sleeve with no resistance ( which was happening from 1 side due to it not being as true as it needed to be )
Packing off the coil from the underside works for a bit but ultimately it’s the spacing of the bracelet that is the cure.
Eventually it started to happen on my left flipper and for several weeks now and a flip load of games we are golden
I think the Precision don’t gel well with titans on TNA , though i have the precision and titans on GZ for a long time now and absolutely no wear or issues at all
I think it’s just dynamics of TNA that wear out flipper rubbers quickly no matter what you use
I’d say the bush and shaft clamp as worthy upgrades. When you take off the stock pawl parts you can clearly see its like having a halfords bike compared to a Kona
