TZ Third Magnet...

[DrPinball]

So I took the plunge and bought a new playfield for my TZ with the third magnet cutout - I now need something to fill that hole!

Has anyone ever done this mod and has some advice on where to get the components - I've seen a kit available in the States from Pinbits but is there anything in the UK? Has anyone seen the magnet, carrier and magnet core needed available in the UK.

Cheers

David.

Only seen them on Pinbits, sorry.

I tip my hat to the playfield swap you are about to embark upon.

It's how the game was originally design before the companies cost cutters got their hands on it.

When multiball starts, the game fires off balls to lock on all three magnets. Once all three are in place then multiball starts. The drop from the left lock giving a good chance of an immediate Jackpot.

It is a cool feature and I like it but it's also easy to see why it got the cost cutters axe.
