I had a lot of extra stuff that I understood could not be sent with the game. But I haven't heard anything since. Anyone got their spares yet?

I was going to post the exact same question.
Your timing is impecable.
Parts anyone?

Reliable source said that some of the parts are shipping. There was one part that was being remade by a different vendor and that delayed shipping in some cases. I don't have details I can share though.

According to Kim many parts will ship soon. For those that ordered a spare ramp they are being remade by James at Pinball Inc. so expect to wait a bit longer. I spoke with James and the good news is that he will be making them in the typical Pinball Inc fashion, thicker and therefore more durable.

Can anyone tell me if the extra parts ordering is closed already?
I didn't see a deadline posted anywhere.

I THOUGHT that addidtional parts ordering hadn't started yet. TOG put out the message to see what people wanted so they could figure out thier inventoy and decide what needed to be ordered. As of now, I think IPB/PMI are still working on filling the original parts orders because they ran out of some of the same parts to build machines.

There is a thread for spare parts interest, "Spare Parts Wanted?".
Just add a post to that with what you are interested in.

I'll generate actual orders and comfirm w/ everyone interested when we get to that hurdle... Cool Wink

I was fortunate enough to score the spare parts of the former owner of BBB #40, Chris. I picked up a pf, full set of plastics, decals and tube dancer. I have to say that the quality of the pf is wonderful. I'd even go so far as saying that it is nicer than the pf in my game. Anyone else receive their spare pf? What do you think? captkirk BBB #78

When I ordered my machine I ordered and extensive list of extra parts (and paid for them) and I don't know what the status of any of them is. Does anyone have an update or someone I can talk to? I paid for these parts years ago now.

Yup, same here: still waiting for either a ramp, or a refund... Sad

James at Pinball Inc sent me an email yesterday with a short update on their ramp progress, "Working on them, we ran into a problem with the tool."

So it appears that the program is still moving ahead. I'm not worried, James' work is always top notch, worth the wait.

I live relatively close to James and I have a cracked ramp on my BBB so I'm sure we'll be doing the fitting here when the time comes. I'll let y'all know of the progress when I get involved.
