Bally Creature From The Black Lagoon Pinball Machine 8

[@Jesselovespinball]

I like what you said about having to adjust and fix the machines. When I first started playing pinball almost 30 years ago , I just really liked to play . As I got older and acquired more skills. Pinball became an obsession. Half of the allure for me is getting the machine dialed in just the way I want it . But honestly they usually always need something. Doesn’t matter how many times we fix them. They will always need something. And that is what makes pinball , pinball. Some people just aren’t meant to have their own machines . Let’s be honest , there are a lot of guys who think they know how to fix them , but just make a mess . I think many of us have dealt with that in the past .

It can be maddening dealing with a person that has a desire to own a game but no clue what’s involved in it and where the fault lies.

I'm a big fan of the vapor metallic bulbs from Mitchell Lighting. I use them in all my games now. They really shine in the Lawlor games with all the indicator lamps - Addams Family, Twilight Zone, FunHouse, but also here with Creature, Star Trek Next Generation and Monster Bash. Glad you tried them out.

Man whomever made that repro creature sign just didn't give one f' for doing the job right or good or even passable. I would be on the phone with whomever sold that POS and would be sending it back. There's no excuse for trash like that being sold. On a positive note those bulbs looks slick!

[@highendpins]

Thanks. That reproduction plastic set was pretty good overall but that sign was a complete oversight on their part.

Are you using LED OCD? or its special led bulbs give you this smooth flashing effect?

[@highendpins]

LED ocd for the feature lamps buoy can’t run one for the GI because of the chase lamp board. They don’t work together.

[@PinballRussia]

@@highendpins So whats are you using for this smooth flashing effect?
