The more the merrier. 
At this rate Wade will have his work cut out for him for a while reproducing this title alone, but I'm sure he is completely happy with that.

Guys just be patient. I'm friends with Wade and seen him make playfields first hand. All I can say is they are nothing but prefection. With that being said it takes time to make them perfect. Im glad to see this thread going. He diffently needs commitments on any playfield he does. Keep the commitments coming... Cant wait for this one.

Just picked up an Atlantis with a nice playfield, but I'll commit to buying one. Please add me to the list!
I don't have an Atlantis, but signed up earlier in this thread cause I'd build one from scratch somehow. Love this game. If anyone has an Atlantis to sell in the southeast states, pm me.

Quoted from Chippewa-Pin:Not sure why the pics didn't show up. They did in the 'Preview post'.
I guess I am not the only Rookie
Never played Atlantis. I'll have to try playing it along with others at the PHOF.

Scary to think I run a manage a group of web developers! 
Let's try the pictures thing again. For some reason, I've always had trouble loading pics...
Really nice guy from Yonkers, NY. He put a CL ad out there and someone copied it into the "Some nice pins just came up on CL" post in Pinside. I was up visiting my daughter in NYC, so I thought I'd stop by and see the Atlantis since he's only 45 minutes away and I've been looking to get one. His dad had a stroke and was moving him into his house so he was selling all his 'toys' to make an apartment area for him. He did say if there was a reasonably priced El Dorado for sale that he'd like one. He used to be on RGP all the time, but never Pinside. Maybe he will now.
He had this sitting on top of the pin and said to take it with me.
Already on it! Going to go look at one in a few weeks. It may need some cabinet love from the infamous Boilerman! Playfield and backglass look great.
The best part of the Atlantis is that my wife quickly became addicted to it. She normally just plays her favorites (Theatre of Magic & Bride of Pinbot), but something about Atlantis made her keep pressing the button for just one more game. ACD, Atlantis and C37 are all that way for me.
Wow where do you guys find these treasures?! Snagging a gorgeous Atlantis and even knowing where a C37 is even located, much less one for sale. Must be the fact that I'm stuck here in the Pacific Northwest, haha. I'd kill to own either of those titles. Congrats!

I think we're pretty fortunate here in the northeast for pin availability. We have the For Sale threads blocked if you're west of the Mississippi river or south of the Mason-Dixon line.

what you can not buy them in pair out there?
Quoted from Chippewa-Pin:ACD, Atlantis and C37 are all that way for me.
I have all three of those. Great games!!

My first Atlantis came from the Seattle area about 15 years ago. The guy that brought it actually pulled two of them from there and brought them to the mid-west at that time. That's why you can't find an Atlantis there.
You guys with ABD, C37 and Atlantis...
I won't say it as I might get a thread eject for jealous ranting and raving. John in Cocoa, if you want to sell any one of those, just PM me.

If you ever make it down the see the Space Center area, contact me and stop by for an EM playing session!

I happen to have all 3! I had 2 shipped in and bought the other from Tim Meighan.

Ditto here if you're in the Pittsburgh area!

Well if anyone ever comes across, or wants to sell any of those titles (Atlantis, C37) or for that matter a Jacks Open/Lucky Hand, let me know. I know I'm going to have to pay alot for them, but I'm willing to. It's a hobby, and I'm collecting, so not worried about cost as much as getting the titles I want.
I guess you seen this one?

Oh man! I want one of those!

I also have both Jacks Open and Lucky Hand! We are down sizing so some of my collection is going to have to go. 
I will know more in the next couple of months and let you know if you are interested. And yes......they won't be cheap!
Quoted from DK:What was the game?
Jacks Open. If you have one, I have a Neptune I will trade for it.
That reminds me, I should have your Neptune with me at the Asylum event in two weeks.
It will be a while - this is the latest I have from him.
I will be printing Gold Strike very soon and I'll resume Knock Out right away.
Thank you,
Wade
Quoted from boilerman:did anyone here get that ebay FL Atlantis?
it looked bad but had potential. I got this one out of a house fire and came out great. they were going to trash it.
if the FL one was local to me I would of snagged it.
Wow! Looks great. Need a backglass for it?

I did. Playfield and backglass on the auction look like an upgrade from my other one. I am going to part the game at the guys house and leave the cab. Is that a bad idea? Who would want to restore a termite-infested cab?

Good stuff! See you there!

Don't part the game. Find a donor cabinet and repaint it and save another Atlantis. Or at least keep all the parts together for someone else to put it in a donor cabinet.
People are going to much greater lengths to salvage games these days. Atlantis ranks up there with El Dorado or Kings and Queens in terms of interest and game play.

Some time in the next 1-2 years would be great!
Quoted from MikeO:Also, do you know that the cabinet is termite infested? It may be salvageable as is.
I will know tomorrow when I pick it up...
