    Nice, awesome game! I'd love to find one close by... Taxi Taxi!!

    #4 12 years ago

    Congrates on the new pins. Taxi is a fun pin.

    #5 12 years ago

    What does Gorby say? "You give to me ride!" or something like that, LOL... makes me laugh. Love that game.

    #6 12 years ago

    Nice! For me the most distintive sounds of any game. I can remember them as if I played it yesterday.

    Wow, Cyclone was one of my first loves too. Great set up!

    #7 12 years ago

    Ahh nice man, i would love either of those. congrats

    #8 12 years ago

    I dig your collection. We would get along!

    #9 12 years ago

    Taxi such a classic looks like it's in great shape as well. Congrats hope you enjoy it!

    #10 12 years ago

    Played taxi for the first time this weekend...I want one down the road! Fun game, that collection is growing pretty fast Blackbeard.

    #11 12 years ago

    Congrats, does it have Blonde hair?

    #12 12 years ago

    Nice machine, these are hard to find in good condition

    #13 12 years ago

    No, it's lola with reddish hair.

    After playing both cyclone and taxi, taxi is a little better. It's just so fun getting just about everyone picked up and then trying to ring the jackpot.

    I bought taxi and firepower for $1400 total. I grabbed taxi and the backbox of firepower last weekend and i'll pick up the cab of firepower saturday. The pf is pretty much mint on firepower.

    Still can't figure it out. "dobie dobie ride"? "who can do me ride"? Just can't seems to figure it out.

    Gorbie sounds like my wife's ex-boss to a tee!

    "You give to me RIDE!" It's Russian of course...

    Cool Cowman. Post pics when you get her.

    I hope you saw Robertmee's posting about those LED diagnostic lights..

    #20 12 years ago

    Awesome! Taxi is an all time great! I love that Pinbot makes an appearance!

    #21 12 years ago

    Very nice, very nice indeed!

    #22 12 years ago

    Nice, Taxi is a fun pin. Did you get the sound situation solved?

    #23 12 years ago

    so how do you like playing the machine?

    #24 12 years ago

    Taxi is really fun. I love.

    Just noticed that only the 5v LEDs is lit. The other two aren't. Seems to play fine though.

    The sound issue seems to be a connector thing... Cracked joint I'm betting.

    #25 12 years ago

    That's awesome, comrade taxi!

    #26 12 years ago

    Just curious...Where you from Blackbeard???

    #27 12 years ago

    Zero to six in record time. Nice pickups.

    Unfortunately that is top secret. I like to discuss possible pin pickups on here. I need to be stealth.

    Thanks bud.

    I look back to August 2011 when I bought #1 gorgar. Now 6 deep.

    I've never played dmd pins either. This weekend at the Ohio show should really hook me.

    It's a Lola Taxi.

    #32 12 years ago

    Congrats on the new machine.
    Much love for Taxi.

    except for those who remember your first few posts before you removed it.. luckily I'm not honing in on your turf.

    So that's roughly 1 a month... by this time next year you should be at 18! Get those gameroom addition plans ready!

    The pf on this taxi is about a 7. It needs work around the pop bumpers.. I just don't know if I will put the time into it.....
