Hello Ben
Sorry to disappoint you guys, but Joe is in Melbourne for a week.
This Monday has been cancelled but play resumes the following Monday as normal.
Hope to see you then . . .

Tron Arrives
« Reply #38 on: June 08, 2011, 09:07:27 PM »
Last night the boys got a chance to see and play Stern's new Tron at Joe's.
By the time we got there, Joe had already blinged it out with plenty of blue LEDs and a few coloured ones in selected spots.
First impression is a VERY fast flowing game. Pops are located quite low on the p/f and are fed via the left loop (like FH) and a mini loop on the right. The spinning rubber disc which is revealed when the motorised standup bank retracts randomises the ball and sometimes flings it out faster than a bishop in a brothel raid. There's also a third flipper for the right ramp and that tight mini-loop; this adds much to the game.
Artwork is pretty stunning and the music and sounds are awesome (must catch the movie soon)
Overall, the boys were very favourably impressed with the whole package.

Thanks to Joe for letting us have a bash on this cool new machine.

Pics: (1) Some of the boys drooling

If done from factory LEDs wouldn't have cost that much more to start with, either, you would think. Plus they should last a lot longer than a globe.

Hello Creaper

Joe's Pinball Faith is at 5 Goongarrie Street, Bayswater.
Best to give him a courtesy call on 0408 855 722 and confirm it's on.

Cheers
