Karma post whoring there Josh.

Good luck with the sales.

Josh,

I'll trade you a HUO Nugent I just picked up for something.

You know me Roger! Always trying to get that extra point!!

Hey Bill, I've never played a Nugent. From the pics, I don't think I want it, looks too much like an EM, however the theme kicks a$$!!.. Thanks anyways!

Josh,

If you ever want to unload that Slugfest let me know.

I may be looking for a Decent Demolition Man in the near future. I have no more pins to trade (mine are all keepers now) but I will be restoring a few arcade cabs this summer that will be for sale or I could use as a partial trade. Titles up for restoration: Restored Punchout! ($1000), Restored Frogger ($800), Custom Horizontal Multi ($800), Frogger-themed Vertical Multi ($1000), Dedicated Pigout! ($700). Also, if anyone is looking for a fully restored TRON arcade machine, I'd do an even up swap on that one, as the values would be pretty equal (+/- $2000 or so). Just throwing that out there.

In other MN Pin news, my annual Galaxy Blue Soiree is coming up on Saturday May 25th, starting around 3pm in Avon, MN (about 75 miles NW of Minneapolis on I-94). I will have 4 pins at the (home-based) event, and about 20-25 vids. BYOB or liquor is appreciated, but we do have a fully stocked wet bar for those that forget. There is also a liquor store in Avon, right off the freeway exit, 1.5 miles from my front door. There will be food, 80's music, yard games and plenty of pinheads and vid guys to talk shop with.

I may be open to selling my TZ soon. I would rather trade for a LOTR, IM, SM, BDK, TOM, or SS but would be open to others or an outright sale. PM if interested.

Mortimer's Monthly Tournament coming up this Sunday. As usual, starts just after 6:00. Random draw, double elimination and D&G puts up 100% of the prize money to double whatever is there from the $5 buy in. Prizes for 1st-4th and random draws for your $5 buy in back, so anyone can win.

Also, Tops Tournaments are running...

TF Tops - prize pool was $77

AC/DC premium - prize pool was $64

I have a slugfest I may be looking to unload sooner than later.

I just need to get it out of the basement to make room for the System 11 wall

chris

Hummmmmmm. That Nugent might look good in line with my other music pins.

chris

Make it happen, you guys are practically neighbors!

MOAR MUSIC PINS!!

I'll have my Pennant Fever fixed up here in the next month or so, if you would be interested in that title.. Predecessor to the Slugger. (also cheaper! )

I have one for sale if Josh doesn't want to sell his. I have a card dispenser with mine, and it is a proto game also.

Rumor is that they're supposed to have a Metallica Pro soon (1 to 2 weeks) and possibly an upgrade to one of the limited editions later!?

Don't hold me to that... just something I overheard.

They have an LE coming for sure. Possibly a Pro too. John from D&G is going to let me know today.

Your brother will let you sell that?? I may be interested in the card dispenser if you'd let that go.

Talked to John. They are getting an LE and a Pro. He hopes to have both at a Metallica launch party there towards the end of May.

Make sure that you've got the wiring and connectors needed to hook it up.

I have NO idea how these work, but it would stink if something was missing from the board or something.

I'm sure Bill can figure it out for you.

It's weird, I sent him the listing for this PF that he got. The card dispenser is a total one off proto type of thing, but it looks to be factory. There is no mention of it on the ipdb either...

But yes, if I bought it, I'd want install help included (I'd pay for the install in beer!)

It is my friend. It came with a manual on how to hook it up to the PF game. I have yet to put it on the game. Sounds like a good weekend project.

I wanna see how this works, I've very interested!

ES, WW, and Swords of fury?? WOW!

Didn't these all pop up on the MKE CRAIGLIST. Did you land them or was this from another buyer. Nice stuff.

Hopefully your SOF ends up looking like the one at MGC. That machine was sick.

Chris

so which are for sale??? I think I may have 'dibs' on a certain title that you already own...

Wha? I thought yours was a definite keeper? What happened?

Hey Russ....Keep me on the list of buyers for your excess (pin run-off) sys 11's as well.

It was apparently less of a keeper than TAF, CFTBL, CONGO, FT, RFM, and Tx.

In other words > I should not have sold it, but I am out of room. It was my least favorite (even though I really liked it) and it was working 100% which meant it was an easy sale. Actually a nice pinsider contacted me and wanted to look at it. He liked it and made me a fair offer.

The positive is that I get to try out something new >> picking it up on Friday and will divulge the title then.

I'd be interested in ES as well if others don't want it. It just seems natural that ES and WW belong together.

Man, those CPR WW playfields look awesome, I can't wait for mine. If only CPR could get TAF away from IPB.

Well Congrats on the System 11 Trifecta. ES is on the list for me. I love those machines.

chris

It just makes sense.

I love my Pinbot . . . it still holds it's own against later games. I can't wait to get my WW back together. It's been a long restore project, only to cap it off with a new CPR playfield and plastics.

Got the train! Now I need the machine!

Come on Metallica

For me personally, nothing tends to be a keeper. I say its a keeper, then something else comes up or I run out of space/time/money. Any pin I can let go of is a pin I can get again!

Goldeneye for sale. There's one you don't see often. Wish I could play one that was running good. Usually they run like ass. But I only used to see them at Super Auctions.

Yeah, I noticed another few for sale recently. I'm outta space/money or I'd hold on to it. This game plays pretty well, but Its the only one I've ever played. Everything seems to work properly, ball save, satellite, ramps.

Mostly true. Hey, I just wanna point out that I have brought over 20 games in and out of MN in the past year alone! Some from as far away as Colorado. I'm like the Cross-Continental Pinball Highwayman!

Also indecisive, with the attention span of a squirrel on meth.

Tim was nice enough to show me how to break down a machine yesterday by bringing his ES out of storage. I was drooling pretty bad on it.

I contributed to the Jonogo flow and bought the Spy Hunter (I forgot I still need to pick up that glass...maybe tonight). Tried to contribute more to it with the Jokerz too.

Keepin it in the Midwest family! Sorry the Jokerz! didnt work out John!

Stop over anytime for the glass, or I can run it over to you, Let me know.

Can a Goldeneye play well? I kid, I kid! (I think?)

I always enjoyed seeing that the center magnet ball save would often put a wear spot right on Bond's junk. Beyond that, nothing else from this game sticks out to me.

Yup. I believe you have dibs when Tim wants to sell and then I'm second in line.

chris

From what I remember ES is good but admittedly it has been a while since i have played a nice one.

It's def a good system 11. I think Atlantis will give it a run for its money but that's because Neo's was so amazing at MGC.

Chris

I like ES for the nostalgia. The one Tim has is beat up pretty bad but the labor of love he puts into a machine is AMAZING and he's one of the few people out there not trying to gouge people when he moves a machine out of his collection.

Yea I got VERY lucky on the timing for getting in line on ES. Ultimately it's Tim's decision though, and if he decided to sell to you I wouldn't be mad, not even a little, because both of you guys are so nice.
