Excellent Kev!
But I don't believe you when you say the collection is complete.

Looking great, Kevlar.
I like that cause that's my name. Don't remember going over to your house and setting a high score though.

2 more moved into my conservatory when I had my back turned! . They belong to a friend, I've shopped them both out for him. As you can see I've popped just a handful of LEDs into the F-14 to show the owner how much difference it would make. He does want to sell the F-14 so it may end up staying . The Atlantis is really good fun but he won't part with it. It does look like the title of this thread will need changing again soon though

I haven't done anything with the GI yet. To be honest I don't know how anyone played this machine in the dark with the GI as it is. I love playing in the dark but this machine is just too dark, especially at the start of multiball, it's very difficult to see the first ball that gets ejected. If I buy it off my friend the first thing I'll do is fit a brightcap to shed a bit of light on the upper playfield area. I haven't noticed any ghosting or strobing on the few inserts I've installed LEDs in although they are of the non ghosting variety. A question for you Shane, can you install a modified non ghosting ing rom to system 11 boards? I've done that to defeat the ghosting on my Getaway and Shadow but not sure if the same can be done to system 11 machines.

Maybe the previous owner played it in a brightly lit area, and the general illumination was disabled to avoid wasting energy.

Re non-ghosting: 99% sure there's nothing to fix it on System 11 machines other than using either a non-ghosting LED (they have a bridge rectifier built into them or something) or LED-OCD. I think the best bet for Sys 11 boxes in general is to put cheapo LEDs in all inserts, see which ones ghost and replace them with non-ghosting.
My problem is that I'm pretty sensitive to strobing as well, so I'm going to be testing some LEDs from Comet to see if they help. I know of another fix that involves soldering capacitors across two of the insert terminals, but doing that across SEVENTY inserts is hell. Strobing with GI is another problem again, but I suspect that's easier to fix.

Time to change the title again.. ( now 7, F14 and Atlantis returned to owner )
Cabinet and backglass are in very nice condition, playfield however is very dirty and mylar bubbled on almost all inserts as you can see. I will bite the bullet and have a go at removing the mylar in a few weeks time, for now its getting a good clean and re rubber.
