    So some say that nothing is ever really bolted down, eventually you'll get bored of them and want to move on. I think it's harder for us with small collections (1 to 5 pins). Larger collections make it easier to not get bored.

    Metallica is my only keeper, we'll never sell it unless to upgrade to a Premium/LE. My wife won't let me sell it and after 1.5 years it still hasn't gotten old. Still hunting for a pin #2 that will also become a keeper.

    Name the pins that will never leave your collection.

    Quoted from Jerryuop:

    My grail pin that will never leave my house is STTNG. I love mode based games, the shots feel amazing, and the theme integration is second to none.
    To me, the magic found in the 90s Bally/Williams games has not been replicated by modern pinball.

    I had such a nice STTNG, but sold it. Regret is somewhat, but it's the curse of only having the money/space for no more than 2 or 3 pins. The only way we could try something new was to sell it. It is a great pin.

    Quoted from lordloss:

    This is a good reference thread, you can go through and see how many people ended up selling their games that were supposedly bolted to the ground.

    Yea, I was thinking about that. That would be interesting to look at. People sometimes really love a pin and talk it up as the greatest game then it leaves their collection. I always wonder why they eventually sold it. I wish I still had every pin I've purchased and sold, I only really sold to try something else.

    Quoted from ZEN:

    Tron and Robo-War.

    I really want a Tron. Hope they do a vault someday, that has the potential to become a keeper for me.
