Hmm....I'm wondering why after four hours nobody is talking about this. ??

John

you do talk about it

Thread title is a bit confusing... they are auctioning off translight #1 which includes an option to purchase game #1 when it becomes available, they are not auctioning game #1.

Anyway, still a cool item.

Dumb. I thought you could win the game. Very misleading.

When was the official kingpin remake announcement? Was it awhile ago? I can’t remember if I read rumors or a real announcement.
There are so many new games, rumors and speculation, I can’t keep track of everything.

TPF where they brought a prototype. No announcement as to when or how much yet though as they still needed to work out a lot of details for parts availability, manufacturing, etc.

In the meantime they were selling signed translights to those interested in having a spot in line for when they are ready (or simply having a signed translight).

I took the click bait.

So when does this start?

Misleading title guys. Still cool but I would encourage OP to change the title to reflect prize more accurately

Thank you all for your support of the Project Pinball Charity!

Sorry about that. We did not mean for our post to be confusing or misleading. It's difficult to word the topic of post with a limited number of characters are available. We were excited and trying to give the full scope of what we are doing with our new auction because we felt this Limited Kingpin Translite was a very special item, indeed.

We did changed the title and descriptions as recommend by many of you here to be more direct and to better clarify our intent. If anybody has any questions about this item or the auction, please do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected]

We very much appreciate all of your help! We love the support that we have here on Pinside and will do our best to grow to help more and more kids and their families with your help.

Best wishes,

The auction started yesterday, May 28, 2018 at 8:00 am est. The auction will end on June 9, 2018 at 7:00 pm est.

Wow! This is an amazing opportunity. Bump for more bidders and a good cause!

Plus theres lots of other great items to bid on!

I saw that the GOT topper is pickup only, are the other items available for shipping at bidders cost?

Circus Maximus will cover the cost to have this translite shipped to the winning bidder if it needs to be shipped. So bid away!

We will even cover it if it's international, so don't worry about the shipping cost for the translite when you are bidding on it.

The auction software blows. Too much info to bid. I’ll give my cc info if I win

Wow. Bidding is already heating up on this one. 4 bids. Already at $230.

Wonder if it will hit $500+?

Congrats and a big recognition to Circus Maximus for being able to help support Project_Pinball with this auction.

The translite went for $1773.00!!!

Awesome!!! Money for a great charity, love it!

Just for clarification, that $1773 total was the total for all four of the items in the auction plus online donations.

The #1 translite itself went for $1230 I believe.

We are extremely happy with the final bid on the translite as the money raised at SFGE for Project Pinball is going directly to putting a pinball machine in the other Ronald McDonald house in Atlanta.

With two Ronald McDonald houses here, and only one having a pinball machine, apparently kids have been requesting the one with the Pinball Machine specifically. Gotta love that these things get played a lot where Project Pinball puts them.

Probably the coolest sentence most, if not all of us will read all day.
