Quoted from paulbaptiste:

We visited a pinsider friend a few weeks ago and the wife was completely enthralled with Mr. and Mrs. Pacman.

That Mrs. Pacman is a knock-out; blush

colson,what did you use to clean the cabinet?it looks good.

Flitz and a microfiber cloth...and carefully to not remove paint. Then wiped down with Novus 1 and waxed after.

Brought this oddball back home. Thanks to gdonovan for the repairs and getting the game up and running. Glad to be flipping it. Quirky-ass sounds on this one.

And snagged a new repro Gorgar glass.

Picked up this morning. Not a pin, but all part of my master plan....my girlfriend gravitates to classic arcades and I gotta have some way to drag her into the game room.

Finally scored one!
The Giger museum is less than 10 miles away, that'll be an awesome addition to the club line up!
The guy had 2, and both backglasses are different.

Any idea as to why?

(Ya, real bearn find!)

Quoted from Nihonmasa:

This is a four-color process glass. There has been a lot of discussion about color changes in Bally backglasses. These are incredibly small dots of color put together to create a hue. If the glass or screen are misaligned even by thousands of an inch, color variations will occur. This is due to the colors overlapping behind the 1st screen, 2nd screen, and 3rd screen. Bally was able to make these type of backglasses in CMYK, or four passes. Other discreet color backglasses sometimes have 6 or 8 different colors. This saved Bally money, and also increased the contrast of the images they could produce. Win Win at the time.

Picked up a Doctor Who yesterday. Faded but it came with a full set of decals. I'll play it for a few months and then I'll tackle the cab restoration. Have a Pinsound, shaker, ColorDMD, and LED OCD to install in it this weekend. Previous owner LED'd it but there's boat loads of strobing and ghosting going on. Pretty distracting. Glad I had ordered a few sets of the OCD boards in advance.

Unloaded and carried in the house by myself. I love my Escalera stair climber with forklift attachment!!! I use the forklift to lift the pinball to put on the rear legs too. My back is destroyed so this thing is a life saver. Here's me unloading the machine from the truck:

Excellent game! It's one of 3 pins I have an unhealthy addiction to and have to play regardless of it working fully or not.

Future Spa was a game I wasnt planning on being so impressed with. I bought it with a Paragon and was immediately drawn to Future Spa. Gorgeous machine, much faster than I was lead to believe as well. I'll post pics of the Paragon once we get it up and running.[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Man that is the nicest Mr. & Mrs. Pac i've seen. Most of the time they are destroyed and barely working.

Just brought this home I haven't had this game for years anxious to clean and shop it.. may be undocumented home use only! Doesn't look like it was ever operated. Coin Mech and inside cabinet look like brand new.

You predicted it! Now only one of my games has not caught that "virus". I will have to quarantine it I guess .

I picked up this Bally Magic Circle today. Only 580 made. Legs and coin door are rusty, but the playfield is almost perfect, backglass is perfect and I see very little rust inside the game. This pin will probably be available for trade/sale at Pinfest in June.

Today I traded the 79 Star Trek I got last week, for this Bride of Pinbot which is in bad need of repair and refurb.

Now, do I put the BoP 2.0 kit on this and eventually do a full restore, or just fix it and flip it.

This showed up last week as I was gonna store it for a few days for a friend. Last night I made it official, it was not going to leave anytime soon. Nothing screams HUO like a tilt bob still sealed in a bag and what look like original rubbers.

I guess I finally broke down and bought another modern Stern.
