Right now, I really want to get a early SS widebody. So, I've been really itching for a Stern Freefall
and a Embryon - both not too easy to find! Unless, I find a PRISTINE Data East Batman....

Any pin that pops up closeby,I just missed a really nice JP for 700
Dang... That would have been a heck of a find Mike.
As for me... There are too many to count. I already have WOZ (technically shouldn't this be WOO) on the way, but beyond that it is all about the combination of theme and price. Here are a few I'm interested in...

Who knew it would be Sean Connery of all people?!?
HaHaHa!!!!!
According to the boss I'm not "allowed" to buy another game for about 8 months but the one game I've been lusting after is IJ.
And after Tatman's pinside party my wife wants a WH2O, and I added AFM to the top of my wishlist.
So I'm guessing if a decent priced WH2O (not likely) comes up for sale, that will be my next addition

There was a WH20 in the Chicago area a few days ago on CL. They wanted $2500 for it (a bit steep IMO, but that's what haggling is for). Not sure if it is still around, but figured I'd give you a heads up.
have woz coming, then in no specific order: sm
tommy
afm
Flintstones
Dirty Harry

Thanks for the head up! I have seen that one.
If it's the one in Niles, it has been for sale for a long time. I think gweempose looked at that one a while back and said the game is in rough shape and the operator didn't want to deal.

ANYTHING from that Niles guy, pass! You should see that BOP that's been sale forever!

Good info guys! I'm not too far from your neck of the woods, so it's nice to know about sellers to avoid in the area.
Starting to track down a Transporter the Rescue .... going to be a difficult hunt.
Have got a few contacts off Mr. pinball classifieds so far but both in the UK. First guy said he worked for UPS and could ship for cheap, so I asked for up close pics. He kept sending me non detailed pics of the machine and pushing to " move the transaction forward". Finally I asked him to take a pic of himself standing next to the game with one hand up with 3 fingers up ... he said he could'nt provide that picture. He told me "You just have to trust me"... I replyed that I was going to have to move on and look else where. He replyed back the next day asking much $$$ I could put together "so we can move this transaction forward". GOTTA KEEP HUNTING!!!

Well since you seem really determined to want to jump stratospherically up the Pinside karma ladder on location posts alone, I guess I can help you out. Provided that you actually verified every single location by phone- and not by posting for postings sake. The "Round Table Pizza" in Fullerton does have a FT now... So I guess you are on the up and up.
So here is your reward Hyperion...
There is/was a Transporter in decent/good condition on the floor at...

Talk it out!
With limited space and having had most of the Bally, Williams and DE games that I wanted to own I'm into exploring Stern Games. Elvis, T3, POTC, BM, SM, Sopranos, TSPP. Top of the list is 24 (once they get older and cheaper) because I want to customize it. The Letters in front of the targets spell "Chloe and Mole", which I want to change to my name "Eddie Mole".
I would also like to get my hands on the old Sterns Big Game as I always regret selling mine. I just love the game play.
While I will probably set money aside for Nucore for my RFM, I am officially done for the year....But NEXT YEAR, I am probably gonna try and grab a Elvira and the Party Monsters, or another cool Steve Ritchie pin like f14 tomcat or High Speed/The Getaway...While I wouldn't mind a SW Episode 1 to sit next to my RFM, I think I can get a whole lot more "pinball" for the money, so unless I can get a smoking deal on one, I will have to pass...
