I have to laugh....I have read this thread several times now and it was only when I pointed out to my wife how pathetic, prudish or plain ignorant some people can be over such a trivial thing that she reminded me that, in fact, I have a DE Playboy in the shed waiting for me to finish it off!! Hahaha - I had totally forgotten about it.

I have already bought a Pinled display board and new Rottendog MPU and got it working but then pushed it to the end of the line of projects.....

To protect your small children from the FACTS of life is a very short term and foolish approach in my opinion. Better that they are shown and taught about ALL aspects of life (the good AND the bad) while you still have the chance to do so. When they get older they will learn themselves and you will have ZERO influence - that is the dangerous time as peer pressure kicks in and the downward spiral begins....you will have NO CHANCE of correcting your parenting mistakes then!!!

Like it or not, FACT is prostitutes exist, drugs exist, gangsters exist, nudie magazines/porn exists, titties exist - hiding this from children is both madness and very very short sighted and dumb!

Maybe certain religions have something to do with some parents reluctance to discuss the FACTS of life with children? If so these religions should be BANNED!!!

exactly. the less your kids have knowledge of, the less prepared they will be for reality. And the better chance of them being the victims.

+1000...If you pretend that X doesn't exist...does not make it go away, it just "forces" them to learn from "peers" which is scarier to me than teaching them myself and giving them choices of how they choose to deal with the good the bad and the ugly of the real world!!

I'm confused as to when not purposefully exposing your small children to things like pornography somehow became trying to pretend it doesn't exist. Maybe I missed a memo. But hey, more job security for me.

The Playboy machines are taboo at my house... because I think they suck! Actually, I kind of like the Stern one, but I think I like it on quarter-a-play play, not "around all the time" play.

If the gameplay was good enough for me to haul one in, I don't think the name would stop one from coming in. And let's face it, those machines (and even Miss World) are not "nudie" enough to be porn. If this was Zingy Bingy, I'd feel differently about it.

#56 11 years ago

I think Bally's PB had great game play for a single level layout. Stern's is pretty good because of all the toys on the PF. JMHO.

My issue with contemporary Playboy is that it promotes false, cliched ideals of beauty. The women in the magazine are often sport bleached, burnt out hair, absurd looking breast implants, and faces packed with Botox and collagen. I know two women that have modeled for playboy, one was even a playmate. The reality is not as glamorous as you may think. I would not want any future daughter of mine to think this is something I admire; or that she should aspire to this, so the machine won't be in my house.

That is exactly why someone would subscribe to Playboy.

Those are the men who probably have never squeezed a fake breast (it feels like a grapefruit in a sock), or kissed a trout mouthed mate.

Men who like the natural human form read Perfect 10 . No grotesque surgery allowed.

I honestly have no idea if it would be an issue or not.......I have no interest in the pins.

exactly,

i have a bally playboy fully restored and my girlfriend gave me some suggestion when i did the resto, she also said it would be cool if i could find a 1978 (or before) magazine featuring the 2 playmates.

LOL. Grapefruit in a sock. And that is the truth. While they look great (sometimes) from a distance...they are horrible to feel, and even worse to bury your face into. Which defeats the whole purpose.

tennis balls would be a treat. More like between a pair of knees. Like your trying to go in for the slit-lick and she scissors your head half way in.

Had a Stern Playboy, girlfriend thought it was a little tacky but that was as far as it went, she seemed no happier or sadder than usual when I eventually sold it to make space for a new game. I really liked the game personally, I wish I had the space to have it again but it's difficult to justify alongside Sopranos which has a fairly similar layout and feel.

Can't stand people prudish enough to find Playboy offensive, they probably let their kids watch Expendables 2 though because hey, violence is just fine as long as little Billy doesn't see some exposed thigh.

#66 11 years ago

Not sure where you guys are feeling your fake titties at. My wife was always a solid C cup. After two children and swelling to a DD cup both times, they were a little lower than before. She wanted them "fixed". We researched a competent plastic surgeon who lifted them with saline implants. This was 6-7 years ago. I am happy to report that they still look and feel VERY natural, and she is completely happy with them.

The old saying goes "you get what you pay for" and in the case of breast implants this is extremely accurate.

#67 11 years ago

By today's standards the Playboy pins are pretty tame. So owning one doesn't make much of a statement. Scared Stiff is more risqué and plays better anyway.

+1 same experience. Can't buy a $1500 set. It's got to be the top rated doc charging $6000 and getting rave reviews. That's how you get a great set of fake boobies.

I wondered if my wife would say anything about the Old Coney Island pin I bought a couple of years ago. Great game with a busty babe on the backglass. But, no problems at all, matter of fact its one of her favorite games. John

I have never had a objection from the wife as to the pins I keep. That being said she did not care for Hardbody because she thought it was cheesey. It sat right next to the '78 playboy for three years until I sold it just because I needed the space for better pins. I have two girls under 12 and no one, friends or parents, have ever made a bad comment about my pins. I like early SS pins, with that being said, almost ALL of my pins have girls on them somewhere. I just bought a Bally Strikes and Spares so the theme continues.

#71 11 years ago

lol, tits grits and banana splits. I think the biggest problem is playboy just being a tacky pin theme in general. I want original theme tits, like titty showers in future spa.

#72 11 years ago

I just don't dig my 4 year old having it shoved in her face.

Gimme a few years to build her positive self-image first, then when she is competent enough to understand, we can have a Playboy machine.

#73 11 years ago

Yes, out of respect for my wife.

Maybe on an older broad they deflate them a little upon installation, but in a 20 year old's tight skin, they sure feel like grapefruits to me.

Bring your wife to the next Expo, I'll be glad to change my opinion.

Also be careful, women with implants are 6 times as likely to commit suicide.

Silicone implants are now back as the $5k jobs, and claim to be much more natural feeling than the saline.

I think the difference is when your shoving a c or d cup into a woman that's built for an a or b cup as opposed to taking a woman that already has a c or d cup and just making them a perfect c/d cup. If its a small woman trying to have tits that's to big for her frame its going to look and feel ridiculous.

#76 11 years ago

Yeah sure, I'll tell her you're the guy that called her an older broad and introduce you, I'm sure she'll let ya feel em then! LOL

Once she sees my big, calloused hands and harry caveman-like fingers, she will not be able to resist.

I always prefer the big hard tits on a skeleton look.

C cups on an A frame. Nothing attractive about that.

"firming" feels a lot more realistic than full blown tit jobs do. There is a big difference. Lifting with already naturals, feels very natural.

If you care to post pics so we can judge that would also be acceptable.
