Well, my mom went and bought herself an Addams. After looking at the local pin shop and talking to a few pinsiders and other resources, she decided she wanted the decked out LED and modded collector's quality one she found from the guy I got my JP from. So she's super happy, and now I get to play Addams without having to put out the money. Win win. Thanks again to everyone that gave me advice and resources on trying to find her one and offered one for her.

She's expecting it within the next 2 weeks or so, and her birthday is in just about a month, so I was going to get her a few things for it. I already have a DMD glare cover to give her since I got 2 the other day when they were on sale. It already has LEDs and the following mods: broze knight, bronze phone, bronze vault, bronze train, polar bear, Uncle Fester with lightbulb, white rubbers, colored post sleeves, pincab protectors, and custom apron cards.

What else would anyone recommend that I get? I was going to get her the Novus cleaning set for regular maintenance, but know there are still a ton of mods for this machine and can't find where to get them. I know some are on eBay but assumed that you all might know a better/cheaper place to get them. I'm thinking the Cousin Itt and the decals for the Thing box to make it look more like leather would be a good start, but am very much open to suggestions.

LOL, thanks. I had to get her to buy her own when she started spending every weekend at my house playing JP. She and I used to hang out at the local arcade and play pins, until they closed down over 15 years ago. Then she'd convince her co-workers to go to lunch at a deli that had a few pins, and would play the whole time they ate. They just paid off their house and have cash to spend, so she went all out and got the most modded and "pretty" one she could find. I've been promised that it will go to me in their will, but she's not even 60 yet so I figure that will be awhile.

Is the Uncle "Lester" different than the one in the electric chair holding a lighted bulb in his mouth? Hers has that one already. That was a big selling feature for her for some reason.

Thanks so much! Those look great. I'll PM you later to get that file for the box decal. I'm at work and this site barely works from here. Now I've got to find little tombstones...
