Title: Mustang 2014 - Mods
Post by: swinks on February 01, 2014, 09:05:30 AM
If the model in the game is a diecast and just sits there on show you could swap it out with a choice of around 70 different types

here is a accessory that you could possible rewire to run off a mode to turn on cue. Mount it where the current Mustang is and locate the mustang on top and have a LE / Premium feature.

this is the wrong scale 1:18 instead of 1:24 but it was cool

I like nice mods and ones that have that should of been there feeling. Here is what a few US guys have done so far. These look good but I wouldn't go the whole lot as it is a little bit of badge overload but at least there seems to be alot of choice out there.

the cool thing about this pin is that owners can purchase a bolt in model that best expresses their favourite mustang and between the 2 brand options there is close to 100 options and each year they tend to bring out a few different ones, pretty sure when these start being resold each one will have a different car in it.

played it again today Peter (about 5 games). it grows on you bigtime and half the things on the playfield arnt really up and running yet. It has a bit of an old school feel imo. when the ramp is disabled it plays like a cool 70's pin with no ramps just kick outs, drops and captive ball. just a nice feeling game imo and has had a few unwarranted bad wraps. would like a go at an le but like some of the latest Stern titles the pro seems a good buy.

Lukes also has mirrors shaker and a sub and the 360 ring at the end of the right ramp and the pops sound nice and beefy with engine revs. I think he just sold it so I went in for a quick game.

cheers mate. yeah I actually like it. it has 3 positions. fully down the balls goes to the right ramp completing to the 360 bowl. 2nd position to the left ramp and 3rd then lifts to clear for the orbit shot. Its not always active which I like as it gives some urgency to hit the ramps when going and also when its up the playfield feels quite open and t has a bit of a retro feel about it as the playfield plays ramp free.

just different from having your stock r/l ramps. also like the racing font on the pf too. I would change the car tho. its too big and blocks view of the pops (4pops) a little. I like captive balls so the donut ring for me is cool.

Cool thanks John although I'm a Holden man I like mustangs and a car theme would suit my game room great and a good mix with my music pins :-) I gotta find one to play.

Yeah that would compliment well. I love my car games pin and console. This is definitely something I might consider in near future as I'd like a car pin and this is a nice one but of course yeah you have to play. You might think its crap After a game lol

Gotta have a sub n shaker in this one tho. Just noticed Michael from amd put a 300w in my st, no wonder it explodes. I would change it out if I got a mustang

Nice coloured armor

add mirror blades, and she will look real nice.

I think the machine in person will be a eye grabber

what about chrome legs n armour or a mix of candy apple with chrome bolts/highlights.

will be so much easier to pik in person

Hooked and I have teamed up in a sense with his new mod. He saw potential into the gear shift plate (which is my design) which I shared it with him as he has an artist that can cast the gear shift plates followed by chroming and colouring in the lettering to make them pop. In addition he is making the shooter rod with authentic hurst gear knobs. I have done a design for a smaller knob with the gear shift pattern engraved in it as he is possibly looking at getting those made as well in the future. He is a member here so send him a message if you are interested as the combo set will be reasonable priced. Or head to his website.

here is another option for a custom plunger knob for the Mustang pin, and you could paint in the Ford Blue into the lettering and simply wipe off the excess
