This is the same deal for all manufacturers you see all the bad ones littered on Pinside yet never a mention of the 99% of good ones.
If I did end up with a stinker I’d take that all day over planking and blurred art but fingers crossed Phil gets late batch and they sorted as I’m in no rush either.

That could just be a badly installed post perhaps.
Not sure it qualifies as pooling....... my IMDN on the other hand.......

 

[Sako-TRG]

Expo Micro presentation showed the new process used for Spectrum play-fields and has been used for last year or so.
Apparently some GnR playfields are dated 2019.... perhaps they haven’t had the Spectrum treatment - who knows ??
Only a rumour circulating.

 

[Colywobbles]

Someone did say they were waiting on more playfields arriving for production so hopefully they those new super ones.

That is VERY disappointing!

 

[Colywobbles]

ok who want a CE NIB

About time a scoop was designed to clamp down around that area to protect the edge.
Posts, who knows Maybe put in too tight or just a crap clearcoat.

@Neil McRae where are these pics from?

That's a metal washer at the base of that post, I thought plastic was what was supposed to be used. But the clear should be strong enough to handle it you would think.

Neil has secretly had one flown over and both he and the Stern Army are sabotaging the competition

In all seriousness I do hope they get on top of these problems and can only guess these are from the 1st run they had ready for the release. So new factory, new staff building a new pin could all contribute. As for Mirco I suprised after that presentation but those maybe the earlier playfields they had for over a year sitting around for the initial build.

It could be a lot worse after some of the pics ive just been sent via PM taken during unboxing Sterns but I dont want to turn this thread into a **** throwing fest lets all be positive and hope these problems well and truely ironed out.

Col - feeling hopefull

Trying to spread the load then but if it’s in to tight?

 

[Dave Bishop]

Is that line in the top picture- Mylar edge?

 

[M4carp]

And if its too loose
They need an uncleared area for posts to that happening.

Orrrr just a clear formulation that is as strong as it was 40 years ago?

 

[Dave Bishop]

The scoop edge- looks battered... not installed flush with the hole?
Possible Ball hitting that and chipping away at the edge of clear?

Wonder what the ball looks like... if it has burrs in it that would also chew up the clear..?

Can’t use the chemicals anymore

 

[Dave Bishop]

We’ll see what Mirco has to say..

 

[stumblor]

I might be being stupid, but how are the car companies managing it?

 

[Sako-TRG]

Found the pin in question......
Geolocated to Stern factory, Steve Ritchies office !!
Someone's been at the playfield with a set of Chinese calipers

That's truly the stuff of nightmares.

 

[Dave Bishop]

Are these pictures from the same playfield @Neil McRae..
Are they from the same game as the other post picture?

Don’t have steel balls bashing about on the surface, still not as good as it used to be though.
I did a bit of car spraying back in the 80’s/90’s, paint back then was pretty bad for you
