Very cool congrats! When it came to pulling the trigger on my first NIB that I was saving a while for, I cancelled my GB Premium and got the Hobbit Black Arrow after my daughter couldn’t stop talking about how cool it was after playing a few games on it.
Got to love those kiddos!!!

Sorry proud dad, had to share!

Thank you for sharing.

Even on a long day, it makes a person smile. A child having fun makes it all worthwhile.

Yes I am. This game is pretty cool. I can't believe how smooth it plays. My daughters already complaining we need more so she doesn't have to wait her turn! I think she's hooked. We've been going to the pinball gallery every couple weekends. They have roughly 40-50 pins on Freeplay and you pay an admission to get in. It's an hour away, and she started crying tonight because " we can't go to the far away pinball place tomorrow!" Hate seeing her cry but love seeing her hooked on it!

Love it... I am more or less in the market for a JP because my 8 and 10 yr old kids would absolutely die to have T-Rex eat a pinball. It's almost weird how much money I am willing to part with just to get a smile- by that measure- looks like you spent the perfect amount on the Hobbit! Congrats! Noe be careful.... this can rapidly spin out of control... my Little Pony Pinball anyone?
