Hi everyone, thanks for all the enthusiasm. I love seeing pictures of everyone's games rooms, so it's always good to be able to share a new in box machine experience or any new machine in general.

I'm now looking forward to seeing photos from the guys that are getting Avengers.

Cheers!
Adam.

Nice! Didn't notice Peter's LEDs before....I also didn't realise before I bought the machine, but Daft Punk are on a plastic in the game. Bit of a Daft Punk fan, so that was cool to me.

Also, people complained AC/DC Pro was fast and a drain monster....might be just me being crap, but the ball seems to fly around Tron and currently my game times are VERY short. Might be dropping into Ulladulla Funland in the Christmas hols, so will put some credits up on Tron there and see how it compares.

Yep, says it all, Cursed. "TRON BABY!" haha.

Might have to get some Cliffys and some ramp protectors". That ball drop will get a lot of action and the way the ball flies around, those ramps will need protecting.

Yep its a fast game alright. Mine has 3 out of 4 ramp protectors on it already? Pete just said his came with 1, What is on yours Adam? I have bought a set from Cliffy and it looks like ill only be using the 1.

Cursed Looks like one happy man,  ^^^

HAHA i am, Tron is my favorite machine so to get one NIB (my first) was awesome.

I may as well share with the group. Apologies to all that have seen these.

Sorry for having my ugly mug in most of these......the missus took all the photos and hardly any are without me in it! Also sorry for the bad lighting, was dark by the time we got to it. Sorry for the crappy photos, used an iPhone and finally sorry for the ridiculous smile on my face in most of these, I could not stop smiling. Still can't even now. :lol

Opening it up.......



Legs on..........



Backbox up.........



You may have noticed that the side rails are chrome as is the lockdown bar. Not the LE side rails though as i dont like the big discs around the flipper buttons. I also got the LE apron fitted, i think it looks great!



Also got a set of playfield support brackets, don't like the pegs......



Putting the balls in.......Bling balls from Greg. Not the Stern ones!



Going into position.......



First press of the start button........(sorry for the face!)



Great looking game!
