#5 8 years ago

Yea thats a pretty good start.

#6 8 years ago

Nice!!

#8 8 years ago

What is the story? Collector? OP?

#9 8 years ago

Wow holy cow what a great start!!

#10 8 years ago

Very nice! For recent Sterns, that's a pretty diverse lineup.

If you don't mind me asking, why'd you get out of the hobby previously?

Sweet new games!!

#12 8 years ago

Just getting started myself and those are three of the first five I hope to snag. I'll need some more time to save up the 20k though... :\

Too many impulsive, spendy weekends.

#14 8 years ago

Lol. DefaultGen said it best.
I sold my collection prior to moving south. Feels great to have Tron LE back on premesis. Selling my NIB the first time around was one of my biggest pinball follies ever.

Not an OP. Just a pinball fanatic.

Apologies I meant on where you bought them from. Chances of buying all three nib on the same day seems a bit low.

#17 8 years ago

Trent at Tilt is where I got them, in Ostrander, OH. Luv me some Trent

#18 8 years ago

Congrats! Love Tron!

#19 8 years ago

Wow, that is one glorious start to a collection. Awesome!

Obviously, you have a large wallet. Anyone with that much cash could fill a room with twice as many pins as in this pic.

Maybe those are the 3 he wanted...

#22 8 years ago

OK, so what is the big deal. I am aware of these pins, are they difficult to find? Some special deal? What is the backstory? I must be missing something.

#24 8 years ago

damn nice haul! come back in the hobby with a bang!

He bought two LE titles (Tron & XM) and one Premium (Star Trek).

Together, those titles cost roughly $20K (TronLE $9K, XM $5K, ST $6K)

Regardless of the price tag, that's one serious weekend of collecting.

Congrats to the OP for a great haul!

Was just talking to a pinhead about him yesterday. He has graciously handed us our ass in tournaments. Helluva nice guy though.

#28 8 years ago

Nice, how much did your homeowners insurance just go up?????

He bought some sweet pins and is happy, I think that's what you're missing.

Congrats OP!

Can't you just be happy for a fellow pinball enthusiast?.... Dude got three sweet pins.

I apologize to the OP for my earlier rude post. I had been drinking and Pinsiding, that's not a good thing to do. Not an excuse, that's just what happened.

Enjoy your fine pins, nice choices.

#33 8 years ago

Welcome back. Enjoy the games!

My next purchase is probably going to be a Tron, although I don't know if I can handle spending the premium they command. I've been looking at the light mod for the Tron Pro as a substitute.

Either way, damn fine haul you got there!

#35 8 years ago

That's what I call jumping back in with both feet. Nice to have ya back in the fold.
