It really does make you realise how puny and cheap the pro/premium sub is!!!

My hearings not the best but it its filled out the sound stage allot more and can definitely feel the difference through the machine. Didnt play with the EQ at all yet.

My own lit speakers coming along.
Waiting on a couple of better controllers from ali express to try now for the more fancy effects.
(current led strips are cheap low count ones as placeholders)

Once these are finished it will be on to DIY fire ones next.

Think rigging for new GZ is done. Ready to pose and start some prints.

Will be asking for some opinions once i have a print ready as i think the current one might need some improvement

This is the base model BTW,

Godzilla The SoshingekiGoji 3D Printing Figurine | Assembly

Your favourite characters and models for 3D printing on Gambody. Download the high-poly STL files of Godzilla The SoshingekiGoji and 3D print them!

Was going to model my own before finding this and TBH i thought it was perfect so no point going to all the effort of doing one from scratch.

Just needs re-posing and scaling to fit the machine properly.

Personally i think Its better then anything else ive seen anyone use, but a matter of taste maybey.

Quick update on my saucer design. Been bogged down with Indy mods over the past month, but doing lots of material tests to get the saucer how I want it. This video is with the machine off, but I’m trying to get the whole ‘roof’ of the saucer to let light through. Hopefully will have final design early this week. This should also be compatible with stumblors lollipops for those that want to do the install on those).

Looking really nice mate. Tunes good also ;-)

Looking forward to my pro! Slightly worried there might be TOO much going on! But I'll probably get use to it as I learn what's going on

Oh man let me tell you when you get a good game and everything’s going off you need a lie down when it’s over it’s simply brilliant it towers above anything in my collection and I’ve got some great pins in my opinion but this is just on another level

Firstly, I do agree Godzilla is outstanding - but this sounds like you just had sex

Anyone know what activates the goats- noticed one a couple of times in the flying saucer on the video!?

 

[Deleted member 2463]

Its either because you did a perfect L/R Scoop
or because you did started it really quickly.

I think.

I was assuming that might have been the case but haven't been paying enough attention!

Goats is completely random when they appear - although you can increase the frequency with which they appear in the settings - the same as you could with JP2

 

[Deleted member 2463]

ah useful to know, I've only seen them when it looks like I've done well!

 

[Deleted member 2463]

GOAT!

Enjoy folks the power up are really cool!

 

[Wayne J]

Just had a MEGA game, shame the final wizards aren't coded, as seeing as I defeated all monsters, that surely must be one.

Loving the power ups for a bit of strategy.

The shot I finally drained on was a destruction jackpot for 37mil x 8 - with double playfield running, but screwed it up and SDTM.

Some of the side highscores!

It’s not a criticism of modes. Modes are great.

I’ve noticed an attitude on here with some people, and I’ve seen the same with some serious board gamers, where depth is seen as the quality mark of a game. So, there are lots of board games that have easy rules and are very social and group dependent, which are seen as ‘gateways’ into ‘more serious’ games with 50-page rulesets that are played largely with limited human interaction and in silence. The whole attitude is ‘as you become a connoisseur of games, you inevitably move on a path from simple and social to more complex and ‘serious’’. I find this silly - I’d far rather play an eight-player party game with four rules than six hours of economic modelling that takes an hour to explain - and I owned 800 board games at one point.

I’ve seen hints of the same with the modern Sterns where they‘re seen as ‘more suitable for a home environment’ because of the complex programming and rulesets. For me, I also see lastability in a game where you need to pull off a series of difficult shots - not just where there’s just different stuff appearing on an LCD - especially in a competitive and social environment like a tournament, where spectating fun shots is part of the joy.

Most of the modern Sterns don’t have better toys than something like Twilight Zone so their superiority is largely in the area of rules complexity, where they’re obviously way better than 90s mode-based games. It’s not there’s something wrong with that. It’s just that the advancements in the last 23 years have been mostly in computer power, screens, lighting and code handling - so, there’s no reason to suppose something that was never trying to compete on those criteria would be worse.

Hope that makes sense.

Out of interest, what are your top 5 fave board games?

Gloomhaven, Blue Moon Legends, Mage Knight, Yomi and a toss-up between Cthulhu Wars and Blackstone Fortress.

I admit this list doesn’t really support the point I was trying to make…
