Just joined the club on Wednesday evening by buying myself a cactus jacks. It plays well, but needs a good clean and some paint touch ups on the cab. My kids love the theme, cacti and music, and I find it quite fun too. It currently sits in the garage as I clean it up.

Quoted from MT45:

Congrats on the CJ! Love mine and if you have any questions as you clean it up or minor repairs, shoot me a PM. Might have to go from memory because my Cactus is folded in storage. Love that game and I did some extensive repairs to mine. Enjoy it

Thanks! I quite enjoyed seeing your posts in this thread and watching your cj transformation. I will definitely keep you in mind if I run across something I can’t figure out, I appreciate your offer.

Here’s my collection of system 3’s. I quite enjoy them. They’re great pins for family and friends who just want a straight forward, fun game.

Quoted from locksmith:

Is a real nice Gladiator condition 9 all around worth $1,200.I have a chance to get it.Thanks

I think that's a very fair price. Its not super deep, but its a fun game, especially for that price. If you like the theme, give it a try! You should have no problem getting your money back imo when you're ready to move on to something else.

Quoted from setzkor:

I went ahead and tried it with the washer removed...works perfectly to stop the ball now. Unfortunately, I see why the washer was put in...occasionally the ball would roll back past the wireform back into the outhole spot... Naturally I broke the wireform trying to adjust it
I guess I need to come up with more parts to order to justify shipping

When I got my super Mario pin, it was always launching two balls into the shooter lane too. Though mine was easy to correct as I just had to adjust the wire form and that fixed my problem. If you still need pics of anything, let me know and I’ll take some for you.

Quoted from KSUWildcatFan:

Made a deal on a cactus Jack's--which was originally supposed to be my first SS game but just never came to fruition--and will be driving 8.5 hours to go get it very soon.
Seems a lot of people are pretty down on it but I'm not sure why. Because it's obnoxious? Left ramp scores too much and renders other shots pointless? Any input? Tbh I've never even played one but I've got a soft spot for it and I'm excited as hell to bring it home. I think my kids are gonna go bonkers.

Congrats on buying one. Don't worry about what others think, its a great family pin. It has an easy to achieve two ball multiball, and the dancing/chatting cacti are really entertaining. Overall its a great family game. I would've held on to mine longer, but I have a small collection, so after a while it was time to trade it towards something else. But we definitely had fun with it while it was here.
