Quoted from KingPinGames:All standards and limited editions are now sold out. It might be possible to find one from a distributor, but I think all of the "local" (kingpin, hemisphere, gap, flip n out, st louis pinball, able electronics, etc) are sold out on Wonka. I do have collectors editions available.
Hobbits have been sold out for about a year now too.
I'm planning on a used Hobbit, but open to a new Wonka LE if I can't find a good used option nearby.

Will be listing a very nice Caribbean Cruise and Night Moves if anyone is interested in the two best cocktail games ever made. Will have it up in the market in this weekend.
Quoted from yancy:Night Moves has some of the best music ever, too.
You are correct my friend. When the multiball kicks in there is nothing better. Really great music.
My cocktail pins are up in the market. Ideally looking for a trade but will sell outright as well.
Have my Hobbit LE up for trade/sale. Really looking for an Elvira HOH but open to some others.

Picked up the project Flash Gordon listed above and I would like to find a new/used cabinet to rebuild the game in. Doesn't need to be a Flash Gordon, just same style cabinet. Can pay cash or trade a project game (williams suspense, williams dealers choice). Ideally within driving distance or if you are willing to drop off at a local Fastenal and I can handle setting up the shipment.
Thanks!
Nick
Quoted from FatPanda:Funny that you say that. In the one pic that's posted the cabinet looks good and was thinking, I should pick it up just for the cabinet
Helluva deal on a FG though. Congrats!
It's rough. All the bones are there though so figured it was still worth the 5 mile trip to the other side of town. It will definitely be the most comprehensive rehab job I've ever done when all is said and done. But, it was cheap....
Quoted from Cheeks:Parts - Wanted
Wanted: Flash Gordon Cabinet
New!
Wanted! “I just picked up a flash gordon that is in very rough shape. I'd like to find a donor cabinet that I can drop the game into. Doesn't need artwork, or to be the same game persay, ...”
Wanted
Edit ad
End ad listingHit up Yelobird. I sold him a perfect Fathom cabinet that he used to replace the existing cabinet on his Fathom. I'm not sure what the condition of his original was, or if he still has it, but it's worth checking. He just finished the swap a week or two ago, and if he still has the old cabinet, it may be better than what you're starting with.
Without knowing anything at all, I can guarantee it's better than what I'm starting with (unless he didn't have a cabinet to begin with...), nope that would still be better. Yelobird
Quoted from Tallon:Isn’t the fathom head narrower the FG?
That I don't know. I'm not positive what list of games would be compatible with FG. I do have a fathom at home though so can verify once I get FG unloaded.
Quoted from bluespin:I thought FG head swung out like 84 EBD but I may be wrong
It’s just like all my other Bally cabinets in regards to how the back box opens. ( Paragon, Fathom ect) just not sure about depth and dimensions. I’m pretty sure they are the same though.. it is hinged and folds down though.

Quoted from dudah:It's been quiet here lately, does that mean we're all finally content with our collections?!
That's exactly what it means!!
Anybody want a Dealers Choice or Williams Suspense? I have both in my basement that I'd let go for relatively cheap. Will post ad if there is interest in either.
Quoted from psd4me:Interested in Suspense
I’ll post some details tomorrow
Quoted from psd4me:Did you decide to not sell Suspense?
Quoted from Ballderdash:The suspense is terrible. I hope it will last!
It is 100% for sale I just got sidetracked this weekend. I'll get something posted this week...
If only to keep the Suspense alive a little longer...

Looking to trade or sell my Ultraman CE. Would not mind a Houdini but open to others.
Would potentially combine with Seawitch or Frontier or trade all 3 towards a Totan or something else on the want list.

Quoted from thekiyote:Has anyone here worked with Great American Pinball? What is their communication style like?
Nothing major, I just put an order for a second run of FF Prem NIB when I noticed they had an ad here on Pinside about how they still had some slots available for the first production run. I'm almost certain that's just a copy-paste error, but when I sent over an email, and a follow up a few weeks later, I heard nothing back.
It's not a super big deal, but a "oh, no, those are all gone now, sorry about that" would have been nice... I just want to make sure to not get worried about things.
I’ve worked with Mike at GAP. Always comes through but communication isn’t the best. Follow up with him and give him a call.

Quoted from tonyf1965:Fastenal ships. They can put on pallet and wrap. Site to site shipping. Drop off at store pick at at another store.
Quoted from Joz:Looking for advice on shipping.
Who do you guys use for shipping machines? I need to ship a couple of recliners cross country and figured the good shippers for pinball might work for these recliners also.
Thanks
Bryan
I manage a Fastenal and we ship product all across the US at a very competitive rate. The only caveat being you have to palletize and pick up and or drop off at your local Fastenal store. Excellent service that we as a company need to do better at promoting. Definitely worth quoting to compare cost.

Quoted from badbilly27:Happy Thanksgiving Day Chicago Thread! Hope you made great memories with your loved ones or pinball games played today.
I had 30 people in the house today and I think I’m the only one to play a single game. Godfather startled my Grandmother a few times as she walked by and it recited lines from the film at her….dropped her plate of cheeseball on the floor…
I absolutely love how JJP games do that. Even after years of ownership it will still catch me by surprise. Today it surprised someone new.
Happy Thanksgiving!
