So, I'm looking to make my first pinball machine purchase and I've decided I want it to be Funhouse. Ideally in pretty decent condition, since it's my first machine, as I'd like to learn the repairs as I go rather than doing a project to get it going.
Some Context:
I'm an avid retro video game player and collector. I have a passion for gaming, and while I always found pinball enjoyable, I never took the time to fully understand the rules and strategies until recently. Over the past 1-2 years, I became more interested, and started playing more pinball at gaming conventions I attend. I eventually got the desire to purchase a machine, but was waiting for something to trigger the purchase. Well, I attended a convention recently that had a Funhouse machine in good shape (and on Freeplay), and I got HOOKED. I loved the rule set, Rudy talking junk, the lights, double plungers, everything. I knew then that Funhouse was going to be my first machine purchase for the hobby. Now I start my journey to find the specific machine that's the right fit.
After some research, it seems that Funhouse is in the medium/med.-high range of repair complexity. I have a friend with an EM machine (Jungle Queen), so between the two of us I feel confident we can take it in stride. But that is also why I want to start with a machine in good working condition. Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm also willing to travel a bit for the pick up. Excited to start my foray into the hobby.
