Yeah...I have room for one. In retrospect, I wish I would have hung onto TSPP or BM66.

I was concerned about the noise factor and am considering buying a loaded virtual pin. (I know...not pinball. ) If it turns out that noise isn't an issue, theme wise I'm pretty excited for Toy Story.

2019 was when I really ramped up my collection. The trend will probably continue this year.

My collection didn't change at all for the first year since I've been collecting.

TWD Pro left. That’s it! Haha. Looking for a replacement the first part of 2020.

This thread and some of the turnover around here makes me want to start a new thread of "the pin you've owned the longest - and how long".

EDIT: Since people are starting to add it in:
Longest: Xenon - 25 years (my how time flies)

Amazing how some of you are buying and selling on a monthly basis. I only sold one game, Congo, and replaced it with Whitewater. Didn't feel like I had much time for pinball in 2019. Hope that's not the trend in 2020.

Hmm...way more activity than I thought when you list it all out. The good news is that I'm very happy with my current line up, and have space to add one, so things should be settled unless a killer deal pops up somewhere.

I picked up two this year I only had for a 2-3 weeks with the intention to keep them. Black Knight and Harlem Globetrotters.

Black Knight I got as a cheap project in nice shape and got it working and cleaned up really nice. After the initial fun of getting it going wore off I just got bored of it wayyyyy faster than I ever thought I would. It's such an iconic title and looks so nice in a lineup, but it honestly just bored me to death.

Harlem was the nicest original I'd seen and I got it pretty cheap after a neighbor who is a realtor sold a house for some people and they needed to move the game out. I really enjoyed it but it was sort of the same feeling - after a few weeks I just found myself bored with it and ended up trading it for an F14 (the system 11 era is my favorite). After owning that game and a Frontier, I think I figured out that I enjoy playing classic Ballys and working on them, I just don't need to own one (besides EBD - that's been on the wishlist for a while). I can't really put my finger on it, I like them, they just don't seem to hold my attention for more than a game or two when I own them.

GB easily. Think it was a couple months which was too long.

We just purchased a new home, and downsizing so I decided to sell off a few. A notable fact: Fan-Tas-Tic set two milestones as being my first free pin and the shortest time I have ever owned a pin, at just about two weeks.
