Hi, Whilst play testing Rocky & Bullwinkle tonight i've noticed that a number of the stand up targets are really really hard to register. So much so that in some respects the game feels almost unplayable. The main culprits are the three hat trick targets and the B-O-M-B targets. I've tried...

Hi everyone, Long time, no see. :) I moved house a little over a year ago and since then Pinball has been pushed down the list of priorities. It's meant that poor old Rocky & Bullwinkle has been languishing in the garage with no love. It's all back together and playable. I've just spent an...

So, it looks like we now know where the Bally Williams license went when Pinball Arcade lost it. https://www.gameinformer.com/2018/09/04/licensed-williams-bally-tables-coming-to-pinball-fx3 Tables coming in the future to Pinball FX3. It's going to take them some time to get the sheer number...

Hi there, I've not been around a whole lot lately as work and things at home have been manic. We are just about to take the leap and move to a new house which means I need to put a fair bit of stuff into storage. Rather than having Rocky & Bullwinkle sat in a cold storage unit I thought i'd...

I won a laptop from Absolute Radio a week or two ago but i've come to the realisation that it just isn't going to get used. The laptop is an HP Pavilion 14-BK063SA which has an RRP of £600 but they're currently selling them off at a reduced price of £500. It's this one...

It looks like one of the connectors on the ribbon cable between my coin mech and credit board is faulty. I say 'looks like' but it's pretty obvious; the plastic looks to be broken and the wire is missing. No idea how it's happened but it's a probable reason why the credit board isn't...

Hi, So, Rocky is almost back together apart from a few minor issues that still need to be addressed. One of those is that the SVUK from Aesops Hole is a bit variable in the strength with which it kicks the ball out. Some times it flies out and others it's more of a dribble. I've never...

I'm nearing the end of the amazing Rocky & Bullwinkle rebuild and one of the things i've noticed is that the counter on the interior of the door on my machine had been disconnected. It's not a major issue as i've no intention of siting the machine but my OCD means that i'd really really like to...

I dunno how but during the rebuild of R&B I managed to miss a few LEDs when doing the replacement. The cost of buying them online was going to be stupid and the shipping was going to be more than the cost of the LED's. So, I just wondered if anyone is selling LEDs at NLP and if so if i'd be...

Hi, I'm just finishing up the last jobs on Rocky & Bullwinkle and one of those is to get the coin mech and credit board back in place; it's going to be set to freeplay but my OCD insists that this stuff works just in case I ever decide to site it, but more importantly because it was working...

Howdy!! I've just got to the point where i'm refitting the coin mech into Rocky & Bullwinkle and whilst doing so it's made me curious about the way it's mounted and whether it's right; and if so why it's mounted that way. Referring back to photos I can see the mech has four mounting points...

So, the ramp on my R&B needs some TLC so whilst waiting to get that packaged up and sent off I figured i'd get the coin door and everything back in place. Turns out that two of the plastic stand-offs used to mount it are broken. Are these parts still available anywhere? Any suggestions from...

Get your minds out of the gutter...... ;-) The ramp flap on my WABAC ramp seems to have developed a nasty kink. It's actually slightly raised in the middle and whilst you can press it down it just causes somewhere else to lift. It's a brand new ramp that I got from The Pin Witch in Germany a...

I've got a brand new UPair G10 4K Drone which has been opened and taken out of the box but not yet flown or used. I plan to simply power it up and make sure it works (minus props) and then i'll be selling it on because to be honest I doubt i'll get much use from it and I could really do with...

Well, Rocky & Bullwinkle is almost back in one piece, save for a few bit of finessing. I've managed to fix a few issues for myself but there is a final issue which is really giving me some grief. I have two Stand Up Targets which are registering as being always on when I go into the test menu...

It looks like whilst stripping down Rocky & Bullwinkle I managed to damage one of the screws that holds the diverter to it's shaft. I've determined the screw to be the issue because there are two holes that need securing and if I use one screw it tightens up in both, whereas if I try the other...

Is anyone on here able to measure the various hex posts on their Rocky and Bullwinkle for me please? I know some are hard to access so for those a rough measurement would be just fine. I've come to do my rebuild and i'm struggling to work out which hex posts go where. The ones I know about are...

Sad to hear today about the passing of June Foray who did the voices of many cartoon characters including Rocky Squirrel and Natasha. Felt it was appropriate to mention her passing here seeing as she voiced characters with a link to a Pin. Still, 99 is a bloody good age in anyones book...

Hi, Ok, this might seem a daft question, but just so i'm 100% clear. ;-) When referring to documentation on rubber sizes what does the size denote? Is it the interior size of the rubber or the exterior size? Reading the Data East schematics for rubber placement is a trial at the best of...

So, a couple of questions on the part highlighted below. 1. Do they have a proper name? 2. What are they actually meant to do? I have a feeling that during the repaint and clearing of my playfield at least one of the holes where these are fitted might have been covered up. Just wondering...
