Well, that didn't take long. I got the OK to buy pin #2 after my wife got her new job offer, and I moved my HUO TSPP down to the basement yesterday with some very generous help from Mike and Wayne who took a break from their church of the Silverball renovations to help me move the game. I actually picked it up a week and a half ago before I went on vacation, so it waited with the head off in my living room for a week. Still can't really make much of a dent in the game, but it's going to be fun trying. I added a couple of leg protectors and some of the clear flipper button protectors for the side, but otherwise everything is stock on it. Any other additions that people would recommend?
Is it an atom? No, it's multiball! Complete MAACA-Wacko!

Congrats Chris, you now have the pinball machine with the deepest software ever developed. No matter how good you get, there's always more to challenge you. A real keeper!
I'm not too sure about the I & S protector for home use. My game doesn't have even the slightest sign of wear there. I guess it depends on the machine. At least if wear ever starts, the Cliffys cover it right over.
A coworker gave me a bunch of Simpsons figurines from Wendy's. I put a Velcro adhesive strip across the top of the backbox and then hot glued the figurines across the top onto the fuzzy strip. It looks great, cost nothing, and it isnt too tall for the ceiling. The only other thing I could do is install lighting for the custom topper.
Also installed green super high power LEDs from Cointaker in the cooling towers. Looks like that's how it should have been from the factory.
You're going to have to ditch the millenium falcon if you expect to fit in a third machine.
You mean the Star Destroyer?

I have a spare TSPP PF because the previous owner of my machine called in to stern when there I&S hole artwork chipped the first few weeks in. Better safe then sorry since at this stage of the game Stern won't be giving you a spare PF. I now have the protector in mine.

To be fair, I did have a falcon down there as well before I moved the comics cabinets upstairs. That and the death star have since moved up there with them. The star destroyer will definitely have to move for a third pin, but it's definitely tough to find space for some of the lego. That star destroyer is about 1m long, and actually pretty fragile. Looks damn cool though.
