Quoted from gdonovan:Jungle King is worse than Big Ben, there I said it.
What about Jubilee?

Quoted from NicoVolta:On that note, any other EM’s you often see clogging up the marketplaces?
Wouldn’t it be great if they were “clogged” with Centigrade 37, Royal Flush, Canada Dry, Stern Pinball EM, Cleopatra EM ... ?

Quoted from Agent_Hero:I think that's a fun game. That's not far from the North Pole though.
C’mon, it’s just the other side of the Mackinac Bridge, a nice full-day round trip from Indy if you want it enough!
Just make sure to stop at Gobblers at the Waters exit on I-75 on the way back for a reasonably priced delicious roast turkey dinner!

Quoted from vdojaq:I see 2 Sinbad's , and another yellow cabinet and an old F150.
It looks like the third cabinet is just showing the underside. I guess that’s the bonus surprise pin.
Quoted from Bonk:3 pins and a truck

This is right near me, but when I looked it said posting deleted.
Quoted from frisbez:Snow Derby is an awesome game. I'd buy that for sure if it were near me even with the custom artwork.
Or with closer-to-original re-done artwork? (I do really like yours, NicoVolta )
Quoted from NicoVolta:Gottlieb apparently had a lot of white base coat lying around in the earlier days...
I used an off/antiquish white, trying to stay close to original, but I used a more purplish color instead of what you’ve described as the tequila sunrise shade Gottlieb used.
Quoted from jrpinball:Much too common. A yawner to play. Yes, same playfield layout as "Gold Strike" and "El Dorado", but that's where the similarity ends. "Canada Dry" is the same game (unfortunately) but has nice artwork.
I know I’ve been in the minority on this before, but I’ve played both the wedgeheads and still prefer Target Alpha. I like the new challenge of getting all the targets down every single ball. It’s been my favorite Gottlieb in my collection ever since I made a 24-hour round trip to Delaware to get it. I don’t find it to be a yawner or stinker at all.
Quoted from stashyboy:Too much money for that title, especially in a large bundle buy!
I guess someone would need a vision for what to do with all of them like the seller once had, but a buyer like that’s probably gonna be hard to find.

From my perspective, the only way that could be a better post is if it was near me! Good job!

Quoted from jrpinball:Yeah, I was offered this game, and was told it was a fuse.
I gave her the straight scoop (likely needs boards, and a new backglass), and since this wouldn't be a keeper for me, offered her $100. I figured I wouldn't hear back from her!
I didn’t know you would even make an offer on a solid state. Maybe all of us EM guys should start getting them because, really, how hard can it be to change a fuse?
