I don't want to be that guy to call you all out, but is this how you setup your games generally speaking?

curious why u think it's one of a kind?

It’s an Regular cabinet with LE playfield and boards set with a mirrored back glass. My tech and I spent days swapping and making sure everything is working properly. LOTR and LOTR LE were two different systems. Please let me know if you ever seen one like this… I’m waiting.

I didn’t buy this machine to play. Bought it to make a unique game out of it and the one I’m keeping. If you are interested in buying it I’ll through in the tilt Bob.
I'm Bringing a Very Nice Caribbean Cruise to Cal Extreme For Sale.
Pm Me if you have any questions.
Thanks
Eric

I haven't....I have an LE so was just curious, and to be honest I didnt realize they were on two different systems

I'm also not aware of any difference in the code. Even the shaker code is in the regular edition. Shaker is easily added.
Try this Easter egg on your LE. (This code is on the regular edition. )

You will hear Balrog roar. Then when you bash Balrog, it will display the face of Gary Stern.
I have this ‘armor’ that came off of my batman66 premium . In new condition. I replaced it before I ever played a game on the machine. Side rails and hinges.
$30 picked up in Sac
Obo
Needs to be gone soon.

I'm letting go of 1 of 2 virtual pinball systems that I have.
Once 1 leaves, the other listing will be taken down.
The Widebody Cab is listed at 7k, I might be open to partial trades
The Pinball / Arcade cab is listed at 3.2k and open to offers
If anyone is building one and wants to check these out, even if not interested in buying, I can give some insights, tips, pros and cons, etc.. I have built alot of these and honestly hope to sell the Arcade version as it would be easier to rebuild later than the Widebody cabinet. If the Widebody does leave, I'll add the full feedback to the arcade later.
I have to sell my Halloween CE spot due to some major house bills. Anyone interested in taking my spot?
Asking $1100 or best offer at this point. I put down $2000 with Joe of Pinball Star last July 2021. I can transfer it to you, and you can still choose butter or no butter for the cabinet. It can be shipped in two weeks. If you're interested, please send me a PM. Thanks.
For any of you folks ready for an adventure…here’s a warehouse buy roadtrip opportunity for you just 125 miles north of the Oregon border off I-5.

Quoted from DavidCPA:Hi all. Need a arcade game moved from Portland to the Bay Area. Does anyone have Fat J's Pinball Wagon's phone number?
I'm limited to California and Reno/Tahoe currently. I operate a small van and longer trips are cost prohibitive. I end up being 2 to 3 times the sti/beltman rate. It's a bummer because I love the drive, I just can't do it for 600 bucks.
San Diego to Yreka and over to Reno/Tahoe. Pretty much anywhere I can get in 7 hours or less allows me to be competitive with the major shippers. I still cost more more than Sly Foxx though but my service is more personalized and I try to have a quick turnaround. I'm more of a taxi than a trucker. One item at a time. I'm just in it for the experience, my $ margin is very thin

I liked that I saw you in the morning and had my machine by late afternoon.I could have paid a little more and waited a week.
I do have one client that I have driven to Phoenix, Salt Lake and Bend Oregon for. I see him every time I look in the mirror and he doesn't pay me shit but he's helped me get some incredible pins. TBL in Bend, Centaur in Arizona and Godzilla in Utah. I'm my own best customer for sure. The way I see it the Pin Man has to be ready to get in his van at anytime to score a sweet deal.
More pictures to come….
I’ve begun to tear down and clean up the Machine Bride of Pinbot that I purchased recently.
I’ve decided to sell it as a project to someone who can pick it up and to get her playing again, maybe even to make a showpiece out of her. I won’t be parting her out.
It’s a project and includes all of the game specific parts. It’s going to need a new / replacement playfield and someone who is willing to spend a ton of time restoring or customizing.
There’s water damage and rust to deal with. The cabinet head is pretty beat. It’ll need a plastics set and sound board. The ramps are intact and definitely salvageable however the ramp flaps and other metal hardware will need some deep cleaning and replacement.
The sound board is missing and the mpu has battery acid damage.
I’d consider loading it up and driving ~100 miles for the right situation. I do want to play this one once restored
If you are interested let me know.

I’ve decided to dive into fixing this one.
Quoted from zahner:Is Naptha banned in Ca? If so, what’s a good substitute for cleaning and prepping?
Not banned. I got a 1 gal can of it at Lowes. The kid in the paint dept had never heard of it.
Glad to hear that it’s available. Ace told me it is “restricted” but didn’t seem to know what it was. The guy at lowes I think just gave up and said they didn’t have it. Sounds like I need to go there rather than phoning and rummage around or find someone my age who actually knows what they have.
Thanks!

Like Cheddar said, Amazon will ship it.

Woodcraft of Sacramento on Folsom Blvd
has Naptha
I'm moving a few dozen machines this weekend and can do multiple trips but need a cheap lift gate rental in San Francisco — anyone have a recommendation? Thanks in advance!
1 week later
Quoted from Da-Shaker:Let me know if your driving down from Oregon. There’s a couple pins I’d pay to have driven down here.
I’m not making the drive, they’re for a machine in EG at a relative’s house. Those black ones might be a possibility. 
Quoted from EEE:I’m not making the drive, they’re for a machine in EG at a relative’s house. Those black ones might be a possibility.
just to be clear, it’s 4 legs total for 1 machine. One leg is slightly longer than the others.
