but all in all was a good Friday

You know it's kind of amazing how LEDs have really change the state of pinball,
I mean when you go to these shows some tables really stand out and 'POP'
Roller Disco was one of those games that just beckoned you.
I got a chance to talk with the owner of said machine, he added a new BG
and PF plastics and LEDs my photo doesn't do this pin justice (too much flash?)
but even a hardcore #47 lamp guy that I am - I do think I'm now sold on LEDs
- well tonight I am

Killer pics, I can't wait for the NW Pinball and Gameroom show in Seattle. I'll bring my camera too and document some of the cooler machines.

Magic IS magic! (love that pin!)
If I ever restored an old 70's van I would love to do a Paragon motif on the side!!
Thanks for the pics HDC!

Now I will be searching for a 'Roller Disco' to WTF!? people as they walk in the front door!

Thanks for the pics! I had almost completely forgotten about Speakeasy. I played it a lot as a kid. I bet the last time I saw one was at least 25 years ago.

Speak Easy didn't look like a great game but everyone was playing it cool roll under targets,
Magic for a '78 pin played rather good - nice game flow

Spent most of the day playing a Bally Strikes & Spares. I didn't think I would be into a game without drop targets but it was fun. The art is awesome! For the most part the late 70's SS machines are killer.

that horse racing pin from the 50s caught my eye but didn't get a chance to play it
I guess it was packed with people today?

I saw a few one arm bandits (slots) but mostly just pins + a few parts vendors
and an outside swap meet area.
Tournament area had a vid monitor set up above so other players could see/steal you top secret moves....

How cool is it to see both the 1975 EM version and the 1984 SS version right next to each other like that? Plus, they both appear to be in stellar condition.

the SS version was in better playing condition then the EM but was swell to see them side by side.
Was also a Bally X's & O's (84) right next to a Wms.OXO (73) however the Wms. EM outshine the Bally pin in photo #6 same idea as in tic tac toe.

Some of those machines have small signs and what looks like post-it notes on them.

What do they say?
