Yes, a IMDN code update!
Anyone have a project/ blown out system 3 GTB game.
I am mainly wanting the cabinet and associated parts.
Thinking of actually trying to build a Hoops from scratch. I know.... kind of a dumb game to build from scratch. Lol.

Dang, yeah might be a fun project but I’m pretty sure you are going to end up spending quite a bit if you build one from scratch.
Quoted from trilogybeer:Dang, yeah might be a fun project but I’m pretty sure you are going to end up spending quite a bit if you build one from scratch.
Yeah, I am guessing it could get expensive.
I have kind of always wanted to put a game together from a variety of parts.
Lots of people have done the classic Bally’s. Guessing nobody would even consider a damn Hoops. Hahaha.
If I can find a donor cabinet then I will make a go of it.
I figure there must be lots of crappy GTB from that era that became parts games???
Hi all,
Merry Christmas!
We have a trip up to Wisco next week. This time I am not posting looking for a game (well who ever turns down a deal? ) I am planning on getting over to District 82 for Friday the 1st. If anyone is gonna go, its always cool to meet some folks and chat. I can wear a Chiefs hat to make it easy to identify. Probably a safe bet I would be the only one right?

Are the playfields the same size on those "street level" games? I though they were a bit shorter? Hoops is a steet level Premier/Gottlieb
Quoted from EJS:Everyone knows by now I’m impossible to shop for hah. I did see a couple threads of people sharing their pinball related gifts.
Merry Christmas everyone!
Well there's always my Leg Lights and Pincup lights and I'm in town too so easy pickup.

Hoops is short. I assume most sys 3 cabs are similar though?

Go homebrew man! Pick a kickass theme and get a playfield layout designed. I think you could make a good flipping game.

Quoted from isJ:Anyone local have a sheet of glass? Maybe I should just call John?
New or just any old piece?
Led Zeppelin Pro up and running at the Blue Moon in Madison. Shaker, and external sub wired for good measure. It's.fun.
Quoted from isJ:Anyone local have a sheet of glass? Maybe I should just call John?
Last I saw he has a few used left from the giveaway. Couple new ones might be left at $50.
I was lucky enough to watch the unboxing and get some time in on the Led Zeppelin pro at the Blue Moon Bar in Madison. The artwork is a way better in person and it plays fast and fun. I would have played more but 8" of snow forecasted?!?! Make it out if you can, they have a fantastic lineup and take every precaution possible.

A 2fer in Madison.
Also up an rocking at Pooleys on east side.
I agree. Fun to play. Great back hands. Cool combos.
Quoted from Brettv:Anyone burn roms in the twin cities area need cpu and display roms for lotr
I have a burner, but I don't have any blank roms, so I would need the originals to erase and reburn.

What burner do you have
Party Animal project for sale: https://pinside.com/pinball/market/classifieds/ad/107850
good price on the party animal. Playfield is in fairly good shape compared to the ones people try to send me.
Anyone in the cities here have any spare stern hard black post sleeves they could sell me? Could also use titan tapered post sleeves. I’m trying to master Iron Maiden over my holiday break here but the superband posts launch the ball everywhere!!
Quoted from Vitty:Anyone in the cities here have any spare stern hard black post sleeves
I have hard black rubber ones though not Stern specific. They help ?
LTG : )

I'll dig around, I think I have the ones I took off of Maiden and I'll be in Minnetrista at the end of my workday tomorrow.
Quoted from CaptainNeo:good price on the party animal. Playfield is in fairly good shape compared to the ones people try to send me.
Sold/pickedup/donated = thanks!
Quoted from Vitty:Thanks for the offer gentlemen. Looks like 9 would do the trick.
I found 8 so far but you can have them if you'd like, I'll bring them with me tomorrow.
Quoted from Jason_Jehosaphat:(Barfly-style slurred speech)
To all my friends...
(Full drink hoisted)
Happy New Year!
Happy new year. Plenty of fireworks going off here. I’m just downstairs playing pinball and rebuilding flippers.
