+1. Looks like a great time. I've got to take some time to visit one of these shows. I've never been to one. Probably a good thing, my wallet couldn't stand the strain.

Good Eye.. I didn't see a rep, I was going to ask but couldnt find anyone in the Know.

Thanks for posting the pics!

Thx for posting your pictures JJ,I had to leave about 5 PM to go sit in a gawd dam traffic jam
Sorry I missed you guys.Will be hitting you up soon at GEX.

Awesome looking show!

yes. more show pics. thanks

A couple photos I took while at the show-nothing that great,just a couple backglasses and me with a few somewhat high profile pinball guys-see if you can identify them
JJ had the Stern camp on film-I got the JJP camp on my camera.

It was a great time, good people there and decent selection of games to play.Hopefully next year will be even better

GS looks stoned.

thanks for the pics GX, saved me a trip!

I spy a ZZZ Space Shuttle in image #11.....awesome game circa 1980
& very hard to find (I am very fortunate to have one sourced out of Italy, the home of Zaccaria)

Theres a great recent review (of this very machine?) on ipdb

cheers

Good friend of mine John won 2 awards for it, Best 80s game and most unique game, was a great find he had on that not too long back.

Agreed BVM. No shortage of Zacs here in Australia,either. Major pinball importers here in Australia who focus on bringing in full containers of used B/W and Stern titles from Europe for resale, classify Zaccaria titles overall as container filler (since the pinball container sellers in Europe specify that importers must take a package selection of A, B, C and in this case Z grade titles in the deal).

man that fathom was immaculate!! i played it for half an hour straight i think. it probably won (basil) best of show? another great year! great pics !

Yeah, Basil's excellent 'Fathom' did win Best of Show. Pauley's 'Space Shuttle' was pretty neat too. Lots of great EM's on hand as well.

looks like a good turn out
-thanks for the photos

Wow! Fancy-schmancy compared to Allentown!
