Slaymetender's Story

I've had a soft spot for Pinball ever since playing "Space Shuttle." After playing close to $50 in that game, I decided to buy my own, but the run was sold out, so Williams convinced me to buy "Comet". I loved "Comet" and thought they put my name on the playfield since I was about the first person on the preorder list and well, I was a dumb 12 yr old;) It wasn't until much later that I found out there was another person at Williams with the same first name! Anyway, I eventually sold my "Comet" and bought a "Space Harrier" which is still near mint, HOU arcade game. I've always regretted getting rid of "Comet".

Now that I'm an adult, and can have a game room, I decided to get back into pinball. I'm looking for the elusive HOU "Comet" to replace my childhood game, but in the meantime, I do very complex art projects. Including a MAME machine, that hopefully will set the standard for an art arcade machine. Once that is done, I'm going to start on a custom widebody "Hellraiser" themed pinball machine. I will create everything from scratch, including the cabinet. I'm using a TZ for reference (reference and in why is it so fun yet difficult, and the physical dimensions), and well, because the "Hellraiser" will want company when finished. They'll be right next to each other in my game room.
