Quoted from kdunbar:Play it, if you like it make an offer. If it doesn't sell I hope everyone enjoys playing it
My pinball experience is limited to playing at The Game Preserve once a week for the past two months, once at Joystix downtown, and once at Einstein's Pub in Katy, so I really wouldn't know lol. Blackout and Junkyard (since I saw it next to your Blackout in pic) are my two favorite games at The Game Preserve, but that blackout seems like it has a weak right flipper, so I was actually looking forward to playing on the Blackout listed on the Games List on the TPF website lol.
Quoted from bflagg:My F-14 is back on the market. Space Odyssey is ready and for sale as well.
Prices? I think I like both games.
Quoted from creyes82:I will be bringing my 1989 Bally Atlantis Pinball machine to TPF this year, didn't make it last year due to family medical issues, but it will be there this year! This made it to the HAAG show and was in the tournament area in 2016.
This is a machine you are never likely to come across in similar condition as it has a restored and clearcoated playfield. I did this purely to try my hand at airbrush and clearcoating. This is not a perfect job, but a good first try for me that I am glad to say I tried to say I can do it and eventually move on to the next one and do a better job at it.
Considering selling it, or trading it for the right game, $2700 OBO.
The goods:
Playfield was completely covered in mylar upon pickup.
Mylar was removed, and majority of the playfield was frisket stenciled and airbrushed.
ALL INSERTS were re-vectored and re-applied.
Playfield was clearcoated and wet-sanded about 6x over between various coats of paint.
A good 80+ hours into the playfield.
NVRAM installed
Cabinet was recolored, no beauty queen but better than it was when picked up.
New CPR plastics.
New Flipper coil assemblies
LEDs
New charcoal legs
solid cabinet
FAST FAST FAST gameplay
Not so goods:
Cabinet head has decal issues
bottom back of cabinet has peeling black paint
New T-molding needed
some inserts are cold. Needs resolder or replacement sockets
Left flipper sticks, going to try to get this back to great before TPF.
center ball save not working, coil assembly missing 1-2 pieces
some side rail issues
Few photos attached, video below. Plenty more photos available of the finished product and the process.

What's the car for? Show reflectivity of playfield?
Quoted from Jumping-Box:Looking for a BK2.. Just a few days away, and it's still not listed in the game lineup. sniff...
I just wanna play one at least lmao
Quoted from PinballManiac40:Mine was at the Houston Arcade Expo back in November 2016. Not sure if it will make it this year or not.
If I understand it correctly, it's not a popular pin, but if you're a player who falls into it's niche, the draw is very strong.
Quoted from NicoVolta:Third time's the charm! Let's get round three going for 2017.
Use this thread to discuss your sale/wanted titles in anticipation of TPF to better coordinate trades and delivery to and from the show. If you'll be driving to the festival, this is a good way to gauge potential interest and arrange a one-way trip for your game (or bring a new one home!).
For sale:
Pro-Football
Top Score
Wanted:
Sheba
Are you able to edit OP? I've seen a lot of cool stuff on thread, but by the time I go from page 1 to page 3, I've already forgotten page 1 lol. A just plain list with what's for sale and price would be super cool imo
Quoted from NicoVolta:Alas, no time to collate the list... too busy prepping for TPF. If you post a comprehensive reply here I'll cut-n-paste it to the entry post.
"Lots of cool shit. More cool shot if you flash the cash."
Quoted from 1iblind:I went back out around the same time to see if some parts I was still interested in were still available and everyone had left already. They couldn't wait to get back to playing Pinball!
Yeah I figured as much lol. Couldn't quite get myself out of bed lol.
Was looking forward to seeing the Blackout for sale.
