Toyota is a very experienced company worth billions and they have the best staff n engineers n processes in the world BUT they have recalls because Humans make mistakes and it's only after the mistakes are fed back to the company by the public things get fixed etc etc. Always been the way.
It's the same with our beloved pinball industry. They learn by mistakes.
Once upon a time, in any industry, things were beautifully handcrafted and nothing was mass produced.
Alas, times have changed for both the good n bad.
I have a friend who lives in the USA and he went last week to the Stern factory and apparently all playfields are being closely checked n quality issues have already been addressed. He says he was told that no one who has received a brand new Kiss has had an issue with dimpling or clearcoat issues.
I haven't seen any photos of a Kiss with a clearcoat issue posted anywhere at all so far.
Has anyone on here got any photos or proof of a Kiss machine with dimples or clearcoat issues of a USA or Aussie delivered public game that wasn't a test mule or early prototype ?
