I played the colordmd in a creature and though it was well done and looked great, it still left me wanting a green dmd in the creature - just left me feeling the movie was from the era of black and white movies and that it wasn't quite suited with all the varied colours - or maybe that was just my odd perception of the colordmd in this particular pin.

I wish they would do a machine I have, obviously I am not buying popular enough machines. lol.. They will probably announce fish tales the day after I drop it off to my brother...

I have two of their screens now with just with Sigma firmware, one is on judge dredd and the other on tron..

Judge Dredd set to yellow and scanlines looks awesome, as the graphics are animated (cartoon like) and so comes up looking great..

The ColorDMD Sigma display on Tron is a disappointment, though the Tron DMD animation looks crappy IMO anyway.. They didn't draw new graphics like Star Trek and most other machines, instead they simply took movie clips and made them look shitty.. IMO it is the only real problem with an otherwise great title, so nothing can really be done to fix it by anyone but Stern who obviously wouldn't..

Want to put one on my already far over engineered BSD, and maybe on Dr Who if I decide it will become a keeper/collection pin for me (pick it up tomorrow, have decals ready to go and thankfully the playfield had full mylar on it which once removed revealed a spotless playfield)..

Well got to see my first colour DMD's yesterday at a meet in Melbourne and I was blown away they looked awesome :) MM was fantastic and the MB animation on TOM was incredible I'm sold on these :-) thanks Mike for the great day and the laughs although I'm not sure if he's on AP.

I just placed an order for two of them, will go into a STTNG and a Creature, can't wait until they arrive.

Just spent a few minutes trying to find the edit button!

Got my package today and have installed one into my STTNG, should have been an easy job but my J-116 had 4 pins not three, anyone seen this before?  Did the blank pin just not get cut off when they were being produced?  I have never had the board out of this machine but it all looks to be original.  Anyway after checking and then checking again that there should only be 3 pins I cut the other one off and plugged it all in. (cutting it off wasn't easy while it was still in the machine)

It looks great, will be good when someone else is playing it so I can pay more attention to the dots.  My only regret is being out of the loop for a couple of years and missed our dollar being stronger against the USD.

 My color dmd on my tron is amazing and I will definitely be getting another one. I wish they could do some colour roms for later sterns but I don't think they will release the rights for their dots to get the colour treatment. Bummer
