Iron Man - various pinball mods.

[Cow Corner]

It was only a small order, $5 or so.
No biggie now I know what is going on, I hope the guy gets better soon.

[swinks]

Iron Man 3 is coming out so maybe some more mods, it might encourage a machine update ......

Good for the Iron Man owners out there, keeps the IM in the lime light

not sure about the colour reversal.

[Cow Corner]

I hope they don't do another run of IM, I would like the #'s to stay the way they are.
I like it but I prefer the Mrk VI suit better.

[swinks]

I like the older suits also, just be cool if they did a software update for some game variation but agree no more re-runs - keep it to 1150 units world wide.

The only thing I would like added to the software is a extra ball that is earnt and not random and maybe make do or die multiball acheivable to us mortals.
Other than that I think is just fine the way it is.
Yep leave it at 1150.....

Daz, why not let others enjoy such a good title with more production ?
It wont make any difference whatsoever to resale value if they make another 200 or 300 etc. If anything, it might make the resale value go up because it will send a message that the Ironman pinny is highly wanted, so much so, they did a rerun cause it was so popular. With that comes extra code which again, makes all Ironman pinnys a better machine.
I dont understand why people think a machine in Pro version shouldnt be remade again. Everyone deserves to be able to buy a brand new one if its possible.

Because I am greedy and don't want the #'s to blow out and there was never a LE of IM and tha makes it more desirable. IM is already gaining major kudos as a top game that was discarded by many as too bare bones and cheap and nasty looking upon it's release, mainly in the us market. These same people now want one and are finding it very hard to obtain one due to the low numbers produced.
It will make some difference to the resale value, no doubt about it and I don't think it would be for the better.
If they re-run IM they should re-run SM too, that's only fair.
 
I don't know if they have enough Maccas toys left over anyway to do another run.

BUT you arent selling yours Daz. Not when u will have a Xmen, next to a Ironman, next to a Spidey sooner or later, and a Avengers probably as well. Thats a kick ass comic collection right there.

Indeed it is and will be and your right I will not be selling any of them in the near future unless something drastic happens, all the more reason to have low #'s if at all possible on at least one of them. I will drop off the tree one day and they will be sold eventually by my boys who will inherit them unless they decide to keep them. I am not buiyng them for investment i just really dig super-heros an so do my boys and now lots of pin collectors who missed out and could have bought one but bagged it big time are on the train, stufff em......You snooze you loose!
Like I said I am greedy... .

I personally dont mind Ironman. The cabinet looks good, and the playfield is very fast.
When it was released I wasnt even thinking about new Sterns cause I was buying in numbers. I would like to see a Tron style re-run, but unless thay have playfields n hardware left over, it wont happen. BUT didnt they cut Ironman short to start AC/DC ? Might be a re-run ?

[swinks]

yeah agree with the do or die mode, also after achieving all the suits and reverts back to the beginning it would be cool if like a development suit could be gained adding a few more challenges. Even a status update when holding the flipper

Fastest stern out there easily, add the stronger lotr flipper coils and it is out of control fast...really crazy too fast, have to adjust the pitch to make it sane again.
I doubt Im was cut to make Acdc, Im was made in 2010 during the sub prime crisis in the states when their economy imploded on itself ages before acdc went into production.
It's just a bunch of people on pinside whinging that they can't buy one NIB and there aren't too many for sale 2nd hand to boot.
If they re-run it re-run spidey too!

The only drama with that is there are only 6 mark inserts in the pf but there could be a way around it, maybe simmilar to bogey mode but have them in order or random not just hit any one you like.

[swinks]

since they are talking about a wish for a re-run, here is a recent updated list - re-organised and a few new ones
