Tron Legacy replaced Data East Star Wars at Pizza West. Tron is 75 cents/play and has a ColorDMD.
Stranger Things Premium replaced Lord of the Rings at Knub’s Pub. Lord of the Rings moved to Pizza West and replaced Munsters Premium. ST is $1/play 3 for $2, LOTR is 75 cents/play 3 for $2.
Mustang Pro in Knub’s Pub has the newly released ColorDMD code. Coloring was done by local pinhead Jeff Collins. It was a lot of work as the Pro and Premium/LE games are different and required a lot of time and effort on the separate games to find the changes and color them. Thanks, Jeff!
