Sold The Shadow £1800

[Monkeyboypaul]

Putting my Shadow up for sale to pay for some expensive car repairs.

£1800 for a really nice shadow. Sale only, no trades as i also need to relieve some space at home.

Pics to follow... but Martin is swinging by tomorrow / Tuesday and could pick-up then. Machine is currently in Birmingham about to be moved back up to me in Yorkshire (or over to you in Wherever-shire).

Ex-Pinball Heaven refurb.
Cabinet lovely.
Playfield has lovely bright colours.
No wear at the sanctum, mylar covered.
Flipper Fidelity speakers.
Aurich's alternative translite.
Leds throughout.
Good DMD.
Brass rails look to have been 're-brassed'.
Spare set of plastics a few other bits.
I tweaked the left ramp / right diverter switch so you don't get stuck balls in there (that's pin-balls, not your balls).
Anti-glare backglass.


Bad points:
There is a weird speckling on the red scarf playfield art near the Khan hole - apparently some other games have this too! I'll get a photo tomorrow.


It currently has an LED OCD board fitted, but i'll be taking that out.

is this the one that was Will's, then mine, then DFD's?

if so then it's the nicest one i ever saw. i recognise the issue you mention with the left ramp right side, but the LEDs sound new. lovely game, very nice indeed.

Stop it Dan, please.

You're making me want to sell the car instead.

I got it from Dave/Pudsey, but i'm almost sure it's the same one. I paid £1650, then added well over £300 in bits.

Unfortunately the game is in Birmingham and i'm in Yorkshire right now. Will be there tomorrow evening.

Here are the only photos i can find:

the day i bought it.

Note the sanctum mark is just ball marks over the mylar (if memory serves me correctly).
Speakers have since been replaced with Flipper Fidelity.

Batteries away from CPU board.

mod to prevent stuck balls in this ball trap area.

The switch is usually fixed to the metal, but i've added a piece of clear plastic to move the switch further along. It's an unused plastic protector that i dremelled to fit this purpose.

The ball was flying round that L/ramp R/Diverter so fast it gets backspin, touches the switch contact about 10cm along then loses all pace and slowly drifts back into the dip of the rail. Even with a longer switch contact then the factory installed one it still didn't always make it. So i've moved the point where the ball touches the switch metal along about 3-4cm using this plastic piece, which is enough to stop it from rolling back again - it still slows down quite often, but hardly ever backwards.
