Quoted from Sea_Wolf:

he next 2 on my wish list would be Bally Wizard and Gottlieb Target Alpha but they don’t come cheap if they are in decent shape. Williams Grand Prix and Gottlieb Far Out would be my next 2. Anybody own any of these 4?

I have many of the 2" Flipper machines set up, Subway, Diamond Jack, Hearts and Spades, and others which I really do like,
but do have some 3" Flippers which I can also get very much into. Wedge Heads 100%, but there was a time when I wasn't into
the Gottlieb multi-players (had Ballys and Grand Prix set up). After trading a really nice Surf Champ, I kept hearing how nice of
a player Surfer/Surf Champ was. Still having a Surfer stashed in a far corner, after digging and shopping it out, it's been the machine
I play more than any other given one. Also (for 3" flipper), the Joker Poker, and for single I'd say Lucky Hand, and of course a
2" Flipper will always be on my play list. Also Old Chicago, Bow and Arrow, and now and then I'll play the Sound Stage..
I never had a Target Alpha, The Wizard's appealing, but for me not a special player (same with Captain) but it's still set up.
The Grand Prix will always be in a line up. Years back I shopped out a Far Out, and me myself wouldn't have one in a line up.
I have quite a few more stored (along with 2" Flipper machines), but until I finish the upstairs addition, that's where they'll have
to stay. The way EMs are nudgable, but yet need to know the machines limitations, increases its fun factor..

Quoted from DCRand:

Currently giving Hokus Pokus a lot of play.

I wish I kept a few machines, with H.P. being one of them. Those Spinners!
Just before the ball drained, I ripped through the center spinner, and when it
switched to the 2nd player, it was yet adding up his points!

Quoted from Noobee:

Surfer is a great game.

The Surfer I have is pretty nice, but I traded a Surf Champ that had a 9.8 for a
cabinet, and the rest was much better..
Should have went by the rule. Don't let it go before you played one..
