    Quoted from TomGWI:

    Really. I remember Seeing Charlie at his booth at Expo and a bunch of us playing Dominos.

    Wasn't a spooky specific booth, he was sharing space with someone else who had a booth.

    Quoted from mikepin:

    great news look like we will have ALIEN and BIG Labowski as well YEA

    Those were there last year(s).

    Quoted from cfh:

    But you need to walk a mile in his shoes too. We need to understand the complications He has.

    This is crap. Plenty of other people run shows without berating everyone. Like Dan at MGC or Ed at TPF. They're god damn delightful.

    Quoted from Dmod:

    Colorized games we're expecting to see in the player hall (subject to change): MM, MB, CFTBL, CSI (Sigma), SM, TFTC, STTNG, FG, DH, TRON, WPT, more...

    It's the "more" that's the sexy part.

    A big thank you to Scott Weir for bringing his Godzilla to the show so we could demo the color on it!

    Some extra Godzilla shots for the hype train:

    Quoted from KingPinGames:

    With a triple reveal like this (especially Star Trek), i am left wondering why the ColorDMD guys are not going to have any panels for sale at the show.

    Randy's a one man show at Expo, so setting up some way to take money/do sales, and secure a bunch of expensive inventory in the booth isn't really a good time.

    #240 6 years ago
    Quoted from ScottyC:

    But you would think that there would potentially be some other vendors with ColorDMDs available at shows. I've been to 3 shows (RMPS x2, and TPF) and have never seen 1 ColorDMD available. A coupon code for free shipping if purchased during the show is about it.

    Free shipping makes it just the same as if you bought it at the show, doesn't it? But you don't have to haul it around, or possibly carry it back on a plane. Seems like a win/win.

    #243 6 years ago
    Quoted from KingPinGames:

    I completely understand. Setting up for shows is time consuming, expensive and actually sitting at the shows can be (sometimes) boring. Just an observation, nothing more.
    Is this more of your work Eric?

    Godzilla is mine. WCS is another guy.

    Quoted from brody:

    I have never been to the EXPO. Can I just show up with a credit card if I wanted to buy a game or do I need cash?

    Maybe some of the distributors at the show would take a card, but most things would be games people brought and they'd prefer cash.

    Quoted from MrArt2u:

    I need a pro tip. I’m renting a car to get to/from airport a few times and to/from the Pinball life party. Tell me about these toll roads I see on my google maps. Do they all take cash? Some rental cars have a crazy fee to cover daily tolls. (Something like $20 a day) Do you suggest that?
    Thanks. Can’t wait to meet a bunch of you!

    What you'd really want is a rental car that includes an Ipass and they just bill you for what you use -- do they not do that in Chicago? Other places I've rented cars with toll roads (like Florida) do.

    #255 6 years ago
    Quoted from MrBally:

    Most Toll Plazas accept cash

    NOTE: The exit by pinball life DOES NOT - it's ipass only.

    #263 6 years ago
    Quoted from MXV:

    They'll ticket you the toll plus 50 dollars each "offense" of driving through the toll without having an Ipass.

    Don't they have a '7 days to pay online' thing you can do if you end up having to run one? It's full cash price (if that applies) but not the +$50

    #278 6 years ago
    Quoted from shlockdoc:

    Can you post a preview of WCS please.

    I didn’t work on that one, so I don’t have the files to make screenshots. That’d be up to Randy or Brandon. Or check it out at expo!

    Quoted from BackFlipper:

    Any clues to future games?

    They never do that on the tour. It's just a tour of what the factory is building now.

    #412 6 years ago
    Quoted from djreddog:

    Which show is?

    TPF, ReplayFX, Banning, VFW in Ann Arbor

    #564 6 years ago
    Quoted from Eric_S:

    I guess I missed something. Why won't Pinball Inc. be back next year?

    Posted on FB that they're going to replace Expo with TPF in their show schedule.
