    If I still have it by then, my Metallica Pro (wood head) is definitely on the block. Tiny bit of shooter lane wear, couldn't ever seem to get the lane cliffy installed properly. HUO aside from being used in the Texas Pinball Festival tournament for two years. Willing to hold until the show for a buyer that pays in full. Can pick up from my place or the show, I don't care. I live about 17 miles from Embassy Suites. Price probably hovering around 4800-ish.

    Purple Titan Silicone rubber
    Full LEDs for GI, Inserts, and Flashers
    LED OCD
    3d Printed custom graveyard arch that says "End Of Line" and lights up.
    Sparky 2-EL wire helmet in orange and blue
    Snake Mouth decal
    Snake Fangs
    Modfather shooter rod (Green/Orange/Purple)
    Shaker Motor
    Gel inserts for FUEL gauge lights for better color
    White acrylic crosses over pop bumpers
    Plastic Protectors
    Cliffy on the scoop
    Lit speakers
    PinPAC2MAC coin door headphone kit.

    Quoted from OpSteel:

    Looking to sell or (prefer) trade my No Fear. Original work done by Frax to bring it back to life. It will be shopped out and hopefully have a few broken cosmetics repaired by the show. I can post current images if anyone is interested.

    And it was a total BITCH to get working...it took me like 4 months to fix that thing too! I was so relieved when I finally got to play a game on it properly.

    Quoted from Hardsuit:

    I'll be taking offers on Polynesia (full rebuild by NicoVolta and myself, with playfield clearcoat by Keith Holbrook), and will have a pre-order deal for my portable rotisserie for anyone who wants to pick one up at TPF from my booth.

    Ya'll are crazy for putting that much work into that and then selling it. =Þ I did like 1/50th of that for Crescendo and I'm not letting it go.

    #38 6 years ago
    Quoted from OpSteel:

    And it has worked perfect since I got it. You did good!

    Really glad to hear that! ^_^

    Quoted from 85vett:

    Is that the Magic from SCS? First time playing that game and it was pretty fun to play.
    If the tax man is nice to me this year I'll probably pick it up from you if it hasn't sold yet.

    I used to own a Magic...when it's dialed in it's a really fun game. The one at Versus needs some love, but at least it's easy fixes. I wish I'd never sold mine and just paid someone to redo the cabinet.

    Quoted from Tmezel:

    MEZELmods will be bringing a fully modded GOTG Pro for sale with a good price. It will be several hundreds dollars below retail and I don't want to take it back home.

    P.....PM sent. (like an hour ago, but yeah.)

    Quoted from Cserold:

    intersection of hillcrest and beltline

    Heh, that's under 3 miles from me. :p

    #128 6 years ago
    Quoted from Quiddity:

    I drive through that intersection getting to Westwood EVERY FREAKING DAY.

    Yep lol.

    Quoted from Xerico:

    silverballnut is the owner of the tournament TWD Premium. He expressed an interest to sell.
    Marcus

    Great guy to trade/buy with too.

    #200 6 years ago

    Candy cabs are rare AF here, Hilton. I've seen like maybe 2 or 3 for sale here locally in the last 5 years that I had a shot at buying.

    Project Future Spa... backglass is decent but not great, cabinet is janky, and it doesn't boot. No acid damage AFAIK, just needs connectors repinned and new headers. Typical Bally BS. It was booting and playing just fine when I bought the thing months ago, got it home, played it for about an hour, then it started resetting right after booting. Displays all work, playfield is meh (was gonna get a hardtop), and the cabinet makes it a bad candidate for restoration IMO, but a great candidate for someone that wants to learn repair to get started with a cheap project, and end up with a playable game for dirt cheap with some brain equity invested. Literally, it's worth more in parts than my price: 250 bucks. I actually paid 300 for it! I'm LOSING MONEY! LOL.

    Might be able to arrange delivery to show on Sunday, *possibly* friday, or just come load it up at my place near 635/75 in Dallas (Richardson area).

    #243 6 years ago
    Quoted from Atari_Daze:

    Damn Frax, you ever get down to Houston?

    Yes....

    If you want to pay for delivery I'd consider driving it down there to get rid of it, if you're interested in Future Spa... Wife and I like road trips.

    Quoted from oohlou:

    You guys sure love your projects. I'm surprised how many people are interested in a disassembled Meteor and random parts from BSD. I'll respond to PMs and put some more pictures here:
    Meteor https://imgur.com/a/mlvJX
    BSD parts https://imgur.com/a/KOeFM

    Are you kidding? Buying a half-assembled STTNG was one of the best deals I ever got. LOL. If I had the space, I'd be all over that Meteor. It's like you already did half the work I'd do anyways.

    #273 6 years ago
    Quoted from NicoVolta:

    Meteor is awesome. Best of the early Sterns right with Seawitch and Stars.

    I dunno about Stars, but I'd say Meteor is not nearly as good as Seawitch! It could just be that I'm biased because I've played the Mayor's Seawitch, and haven't played a cleared Meteor.

    *edit*

    Oh, and Future Spa is spoken for.

    #283 6 years ago

    They're using Stargate in the tournament area? (No, I Actually didn't look at the list! LOL!) That seems....unwise lol. Every other mode in that game is a multiball....long game times! Better bring it with a Texas Tilt! >

    #285 6 years ago
    Quoted from Pin_-_K:

    Tilt will be set tight, everything's set to EXTRA-HARD with outlane post removed!!

    Quoted from 85vett:

    Ouch. Note to self to make it one of the 4 games I pass on. I have zero clue on the rules as well.

    SHOOT THE PYRAMID!

    No. Really. Shoot the bloody pyramid. Otherwise...flashing inserts...which...is....um......most of the shots. The only hard mode is the one that makes you do the shot through the pop bumpers. Seriously, that game is like 90% multiballs. If you keep one on a flipper and don't flip it away...uh.....just move on to the next mode. Look up the rules...they're not complicated, at all...I just don't remember all the specifics, and it's been like 4 years. Riskiest shot for sure is that friggin steep left side ramp that makes Star Trek Stern's side ramp look like a flat sidewalk by comparison. Hopefully the flippers stay strong enough for people to make it consistently, but Kim knows his shizz.

    Quoted from woody76:

    Looking for nice flip flop and DE Time Machine.

    There was a project DE Time Machine listed in Tyler for 200 the other day (east texas CL)...maybe you can convince someone to try and fetch it for you. Definitely not "nice" condition though!

    Quoted from Slim2013:

    I have a Supersonic backglass , its NOS
    Scott

    Holy...bloody...hell. That's f'ing beautiful. I don't even want to know the price, but...jesus. Supersonic was one of the first few games I owned, backglass was trashed, playfield was trashed....but it's the Concorde! I'd stick that backglass up on a wall if it was mine. Love it.
