This is really starting to look interesting.
Here is an old clip showing the way the playfield can be disassembled for cleaning/maintenance:

Here are some pictures from a showing of the latest P3 prototype at the creator Gerry Stellenberg's house ahead of the Texas Pinball Festival in a couple of weeks:
Here is another view of the upper playfield module:
And here is the flipper area showing the player's score and other information:
Here's a list of features posted by Gerry:
Re-engineering a pinball machine is no small task, and as you can imagine, there's no shortage of details to address. I think it's safe to say that no other manufacturer has attempted anything close (by a wide margin) to the engineering effort we've tackled, just as no other manufacturer can offer many of the innovative features we've designed into the P3. We're almost there. The efforts are paying off. The machine is starting to deliver on the promises we've been making. But... there's still work to do, and we're doing it.
Let's talk about some fun stuff!
- 8-ball physical ball lock
- Rapid fire ball launching out of multiple VUKs
- Interactive lower p/f artwork
- The smoothest RGB fading in the industry
- Dynamic shot labeling
- Transparent flippers with dynamic coloring
- Scores / status / animations in the playfield (where you're looking while playing)
- 10-second cabinet artwork swaps?
- 60-second physical playfield swaps
- How about a 14+ ball multiball that's actually playable (no-joke, it's coming)
- Open source code
- Open platform mechanicals
- Network connectivity
- Best-in-breed servicability
... and the list goes on.
