    I was thinking about my collection in my head and realized that I had 2 Firepowers and 2 Black Knights go through my collection.. Since I just picked up a beautiful HUO BK2000- now I am looking for... yet..another Black Knight..

    .. does anyone else go through this ? Or I am just insane.
    Thanks

    3 TAFs and 2 TZs

    No I'd say you're pretty sane if what you are doing is upgrading to a better machine with each purchase.
    So far I have only done it once, with SS.

    never...yet, trying to get another TZ.

    Yep. Black Hole, 12 times in 30 years. Each one got a little better than the first. The most I had was 4 of them at one time. Not insane ... just a collector.

    Two GnRs...only title I've owned twice. BSD will join that list once I can find one.

    I've only done it once, with Judge Dredd. First one was a partial trade towards CV. Didn't want to get rid of it, but that was the only way to make CV happen at the time. Replaced it a couple years down the road with one with a much nicer cabinet and a proto/sample/early machine with the cool sniper plastic (among other things) to boot. So it worked out VERY well in the end.

    Then again I haven't sold very many machines as I tend to get too attached to them. The ones I've pondered selling that are actually worth a little money would all be ones I'd end up having to replace someday, so why bother..

    two TZ's and two BSD's

    #10 11 years ago

    Two TZ's. I see a pattern here.

    Two TZ's, two TFTC's. The TZ was a condition upgrade at a steal of a price. The first TFTC had to go for a trade on a game I really wanted, but I later found another nicer one.

    If you've only done it once, you can't vote in this poll, since "once" isn't an option.

    I can't vote in the poll either, since I've only done it once as well (Tron LE).
