In other pinball news involving machines I DO own, I'm bringing a Gottlieb Big Shot and Volley to RMPS. The Big Shot will probably be for sale there.
Quoted from jar155:I'm coming in for Pinball Showdown and I'm looking for a good candidate for a re-theme. Does anybody have any games (prefer it to be classic SS or newer) that are fit for a re-theme? Obviously condition isn't much of a factor. I can pick up during the weekend of the show. Now is the time to get rid of that blown out game you know you're never going to actually restore...
I have a Mata Hari and a night rider I'm gonna be selling soon. Both are decently clean though

If he takes the mata hari for a retheme I could use the back glass as mine is roached (and my mpu is being a jerk too ha)

If you have any cabaret / mini arcade games or candy cabs let me know

I don't think I'd have the heart to kill a Mata Hari that wasn't completely blown out. Love that game and the art is spectacular.
Quoted from Mr68:I need a repair recommendation.
Disregard, I got it covered. Thanks
I have a Jokerz in Pueblo that needs some board/wiring work. I can only find Strauss Amusements. Any other recommendations or experience with their support.
I have the awful hum, the adjust error that is common and that a new battery holder and batteries didn't fix, a couple wacky wiring 'solutions' that a previous owner must have tried, and one GI plug that needs replaced (cut, but not burnt)
Any recommendations or suggestions is appreciated. I had hoped to fix myself, but its been sitting around for years, and I'd rather try my hand at fixing a single problem from a working machine. I'm over my head as a noob to tackle all that's wrong here on my first try out.

if you suspect that it is just in the boards, then you can ship them out to Rob Anthony (lockwhenlit.com).

Mike is a great guy and can usually figure out any problem, including boards/hacks etc.

I second this! Rob is by far the best board tech and most reasonable prices I have found!

Thanks that's an option too, as is outright replacement. I'd really like someone to come by, I'm learning and could get a lot out watching someone work through the problems I have, so worth the investment.

I can come by and look at it. Let me know when works best for you
There is a 2017 RMPS thread below. We also have pre-sale hoodies until 5/15 for sale. I have attached the mock up to the other thread.

Quoted from Its_me_aj:I can come by and look at it. Let me know when works best for you
Thanks AJ and everyone. On my way. With a few careful questions from Mike at Strauss I was able to clear the adjust (after some needed re-soldering) still a few things to poke at, we'll see what AJ and I can tackle and hopefully have a working machine!
Looking for a zizzle for a friend. They want to use it in a classroom to help challenged children develop eye hand cordination and what not. Offered up an EM but they need something with a smaller foot print. If you have one for sale or know someone that does let me know, thanks!
That's my crazy Super-Flite on CL right now. I hope it goes to a Pinsider! Feel free to ask me ?'s.
Well, that sold fast!
Just a heads up JJ started some threads for the meet and greet and laynards for the Showdown

I posted some games on Craigslist. PM me or my number is in the ad if you have any questions or want to take a look.
Radical! is in nice overall shape. The game has LED score displays so they are nice and bright. The flippers are strong and the game plays really well. $2,800
Twister plays really well with strong flippers and a recent rubber change. Both magnets work, the score display is bright and the game plays very well. $2,600
Star Trek The Next Generation has LEDs throughout and some other minor mods like light up speakers. Both the flippers were redone, and both cannons got brand new upgraded wiring kits so they should be good for a very long time. Overall this game is in very nice shape. $4,500
I have a Getaaway I would like to shop out, I was wondering where is a good place in Colorado to have that done.
I would be willing to bring my Ghostbusters LE out to Denver for Showdown if someone wanted to buy. I'm not motivated to sell, but would if there's genuine interest. Love the game, but am about to shake up my collection. Others available soon, most likely.

I know a guy who is looking for a BOP if that is one you're looking to shakeup, he might be interested depending on condition/price of course

GB sold.
My BoP is pretty nice. Doesn't have a new playfield, but those are available now. That would make it perfect. Cabinet is extremely nice. That's one of the few machines I would need to run by the wife though...might be hard to get that one from me. I'll think about it.

Congrats on the sale!
yeah just hit me up if so and I'll get you his info, if not no sweat.
I’m trying to compose this message as calmly and accurately as I can.
Many years ago, I was strongly warned to never allow Tom Grobe to ever take your boards with him. After years of working with Tom, socializing and developing a friendship, I let my guard down and trusted him with one of my boards.
That was months ago for a promised one week job. Since then, I have endured his lies, ignored phone contact and intentional inconvenience.
Last night, after a bullshit story of two flat tires and him missing our scheduled appointment, I drove to Tom’s house and confronted him for my board. He fished it out of a pile of boards and I can only hope it’s not someone else’s.
The board is still not repaired as he said it was and I’m baffled as to why he even scheduled our appointment.
Wasting my time waiting on incompetent people is not my forte.
I will be shipping my boards to Rob Anthony from now on unless some of you have a suggestion. I also could use a reliable tech recommendation or two. PM’s welcomed.

For what it's worth, I'm here in Loveland, have a fully equipped tech lab, and years ago built and sold a business repairing electric forklift control PC boards. Also I have designed and built many electronic circuits and products over the years.
While I have not concentrated specifically on pinball boards, I have repaired several in the past. As far as I am involved, a PC board is a PC board, really doesn't matter too much what it was designed for, and bad components can usually be found and replaced quickly if you know what to look for.
Unless there is physical damage on the circuit board, there is usually a common problem with them, and generally the high heat or large components are suspect.
Anyway, if you have a board that needs to be looked at, feel free to reach out to me and I'll take a look. I do know my way around them and would enjoy helping fellow pinheads here in NOCO.

That's too bad. Sorry to hear that.
I've never had board work done by Rob, but I did buy a game from him and saw his "lab". Really nice guy to deal with, and I'm sure you're in good hands now.
I've had my Flash and Elektra boards done by https://pinside.com/pinball/community/pinsiders/barakandl
Andrew is a pro, has great turnaround and even posted on my Pinside shop out posts.
Hey guys
I've been cleaning out, organizing and found a bunch of stuff from my old Wrong Crowd Production business. Its free to whoever wants it so please let me know. You can stop over to my house by appointment, I could meet some of you at the show or whatever we can work out. But please, I'm very reluctant to ship anything and its first come first serve.
Sorry no pictures as Pinside won't allow it in this thread.
I have 3 sets of "Poop Bumpers". These are vinyl toilet decals. Novelties obviously. Two flippers decals on the seat and a pop bumper decal on the lid. And it says, Poopbumper 1000
I have a few Glare Guards, *widebody only*. Please, only ask for what you need so I can get these out to as many people that need them.
Lastly, I have backboard mirrors that I named, Pinfinity Mirrors back in the day if you remember them. I have them for following games.
Stern Spiderman
Twlight Zone
Addams Family
Guns n Roses
Mirrors are plastic, an easy install and a reversible mod. And they really give the back of the game a very cool depth perspective.
I will have other items for free and also some items for sale in the future including some games.

Hi Kim
I used Rob on a WPC 95 A/V board back when they were unobtainium and I wanted someone more talented than myself. So he is a good choice. Is he coming to the show this year ?
Dan Gutchess keeps both 1UPs in tip top shape so you might see if he gets that far North.
Quoted from KJL:I used Rob on a WPC 95 A/V board back when they were unobtainium and I wanted someone more talented than myself. So he is a good choice. Is he coming to the show this year ?
Thanks.
Unfortunately, Rob will not be at the show this year. He told me he will be passing through town in a few weeks.
I am looking for a couple of original arcade games if anyone is interested in parting with them or has leads to a possible source.
I can pick them up at the Showdown or arrange something else.
Crazy Climber
Boot Hill
Sea Wolf, Sea Wolf 2
PMs are welcome.
Thanks
Quoted from Wickerman2:I have a NGG and a Whirlwind I may be selling. I am just up I-25 from RMPS. Looking for Hobbit with the factory fixes done. My Big Shot will be at RMPS for sale.
I will have 3 hobbits at the show. 2 are new standards with invisiglass and shaker motors, the other is my personal black arrow. all have the factory upgrades and fixes.
find me at my booth for show discounts (as long as you leave the game on the show floor the entire weekend)
pm me for more details.

For those of you who have contacted me, your items will be at Comet Pinball's booth for pick up. I will also leave several wide body Glare Guards for random pick up there.
