Quoted from luckycreature:

Grabbed a somewhat rare zipper flipper today five miles from my house. Can't beat that travel
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Nice find! That flipper gap looks brutal. How does it play? I like the funky artwork too. The brunette at the bottom of the backglass is foxy. I like a woman with some curves.

I'm in the driveway OPEN UP !!!!!

Sorry, Danny! That one is at my secret hideaway!

Quoted from kciaccio:

How did you get a TNA from Spooky?? You must have crazy pull to pick up sold out pins from the factory..lol

No special favors, I ordered in the last group of 50. It was about two years ago and I asked Kayte to get the very last one off the production line. I waited to pick it and ACNC up at the same time.

#16604 3 years ago
Quoted from Colsond3:

Do you want a Fan-tas-tic for $150?
Cab and PF are nice, BG is OK (good amount of touch ups from previous owner). Needs a little mechanical work. I recently polished the coin door and started cleaning up the cab, and it’s coming out nice.
I was going to list it for $300 or go put it in storage, but it’s yours if you wanna cruise down and grab it for 1/2 price. Happy Bday.
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

oh wow, thank you for that offer! I am really not an EM guy, but that price is tempting! I was far too inebriated yesterday to do anything, and unfortunately today is booked solid, and next week work schedule is crazy

I sincerely appreciate your offer, and really want to see ColsonLand (tm) in person some time as you aren't that far from me at all.

That flipper gap is intentional because hit the red target and the zipper flippers combine to make you a superstar. Havent had any time to play it yet and heading to the in laws for a few days. Ill report back. Gonna clean up nicely i think though.

Oh, and proof positive that it's always worth a flyer to message these crazy posts even. A month later and mine for a much more reasonable $1300.

Nice pick up. I miss my old Taxi.

Yeah, definitely a good laugh out of that. But I was nice and tried to be helpful, not figuring it would amount to anything for me personally, and then I got my chance.

As suspected, the batteries were SUPER old and a giant mess. A quick scraping (this won't be my permanent solution, it was just to quickly test) got it to boot and actually hold settings.

She needs some TLC but it’s Evel so that’s good.

So I got me one of those deals we hear about FREE. A friend calls me the other night and says I got you a free pinball machine. He is a arcade collector and I always let him know about deals. So some karma back to me he gives me a pinball he picked up for free the kicker is when I get to his place he says I got a box of pinball boards if you want it you can have it to. I did bring him a case of beer. It’s a project but it’s mine and was free

You seem to give colson a run for his money in number of games you pick up. I only know of one person who has bought more than you and him this year.

A blue JL would be a cool game to get for free. A red one is spectacular.

#16620 3 years ago
Quoted from mbwalker:

Seems like it. I'll clip it off and install a remote pack once it's here. I have a few misc plastics to try and hunt down, a few LEDs to order (no yellow wedge 2SMDs, boo!), a lift channel, and maybe a few other things..but after a good cleaning I think this thing will be really, really nice.

Bahahaha

I just can't believe that nasty heap didn't wipe out the mpu. And there's a coin up button installed on the bottom... Like, menus and free play are a thing, guys

All in all it actually seems to play pretty well, it's just dirty and in need of some TLC. Can't beat that with a stick.

Now, no more pickups for me for a bit*

*See you in a week

Skyemont definitely brings home more. His posts make me feel so much better when I start thinking I have issues.

And you’re the Warden of the North Bri. I’m only in this for the fun of it...and to rule the Seven Kingdoms.

I only put about 1/4 of the effort into finding games that I used to. If you want me to go back to full steam, then...

Quoted from Murphdom:

WTH I’m never lucky enough to live near any advertised deals.

I have to pick a game up from Providence in the next month or so. If you want Fantastic for $150 and feel like meeting where I’m going, I’ll bring it with me and bring the luck to you.

I’ve never seen a red in person. What percentage were made red?

#16628 3 years ago
Quoted from topkat:

I’ve never seen a red in person. What percentage were made red?

I think the first 100 that were made were red, but some say it was only 50 or 70. I’ve seen about 10 of them in 8 years in the hobby.

My buddy has a nice fully restored one. They have unique plastics and a few other features too.

I usually read through this thread every day, and love reading about everyone’s awesome finds. Well, today was my day. Out of the blue I was contacted this morning about an awesome pin for an awesome price. I drove 4 hours round trip without seeing pics first. And I’m still super ecstatic. The seller was a great person, who explained that after having it folded up in her basement for ten years (And the level of dust on it fully supports this), she just wanted it gone and was happy to get the space back. What a great day.

Bought some parts from the96stang for my Night Moves! Now it is finally 100% after all this time, plays music, no broken plastics, fully working display!

He basically threw this Stop 'N' Go at me and for a few extra bucks I couldn’t say no!
I’m not afraid of some cheap EMs, especially when they’ve got some nifty gimmicks!
Gonna take a TON of work to get this sucker going, but I’m sure it’ll be a fun project

And you've all been decent enough to pass on machines to fellow pinheads. Which helps continue this hobby that we love. And keep machines alive.

The original manuals and even the warranty registration card. No receipt from the sale, but all evidence suggests possibly HUO. Clean machine!
