While testing the machine, the motor for R2-D2 decided to die. I have a proto DE Star Wars, so I thought I'd use that to isolate the problem, and it too is broken (it works, just the mounting tab is completely broken off).

Usually, it is always "good news" posted on threads, but this time, at the point of 99% complete and tested - Well at least it crapped itself with me and not the new owner. So I've ordered a new motor, and also a new motor for the Death Star - The new owner has been more than patient, so I think it is the right thing to do !

Also throwing in a set of NINJA Balls.. As if the game needs any more bling !








There are three toys that I've mounted to the playfield - none are in the way of playfield lights etc. I think they look AWESOME.

When booting the game, the Pinsound board starts the Star Wars entrance theme, and the power of the sub woofer makes Darth Vader's ship move with the bass. I love it !








Nearly there ..  :D :D :D :D :D :D
