Amazing pinball story:

Met Linda Deal (artist name) who worked at Williams and did iconic artwork for some of the biggest titles in Pinbaldom.
Ultimately bought her original TOM and CHampion Pub. She was given these games as being part of the design team and they stayed in the household…never venturing into the wild!

A lot lot more to this story, including some of the orginsl artwork for TOM!, CV and DM

She has sooo many excellent stories and my friend Rob (music city pinball/game terminal) is going to help her put some of the OG artwork into the pinball community.

I didn’t realize the painstaking hours that went into the art process and before computers it was hard to fathom.

Seeing the brush strokes up close on TOM and Demo Man gave me a whole different perspective.

Stay tuned in different thread…

#29154 43 days ago

Journeyed out to do some prospecting locally for Pinsider Captive_Ball last night.

Game was much nicer than I expected…now I think I might just keep it.

The double spinners are fun to rip, and the gold/silver scoring on this game is quite neat as well. It might be my favorite EM I've played yet.

Yeah, I was pleasantly surprised. Never played one much before.

Played a few games before we broke it down, and it has a lot of cool shots. Plays smooth as butter and flippers are adjusted nicely. I’ll set it up and keep it running smoothly until he grabs or has me ship it.

Added WCS94 to the collection!
Dirty but playfield is nice and cabinet is decent.
Gonna make a good father-son project.
Currently set it up temporarily in the garage, I will probably move this inside the house and place it in my 5 year old sons room

Those games are in horrible shape, but should clean up nicely.

Surely I jest. Nice pick ups and congrats. They look like stellar examples. Fully restored?

Thanks! Atlantis is partially restored. New paint, plastics, drops, legs, etc. Playfield is not restored but is in pretty good shape, some insert cupping. Wizard is fully restored.

I’m in the middle of restoring one for a customer. Stencil kit, cpr playfield, and pretty much new everything besides coils and wiring. lol
Just did the magenta today, and I’ll do black next weekend.

Had a late birthday celebration and my cousin bought me a pin! Also got a sweet keychain. The pin will need to be shipped out and LEDs added - maybe a topper too.

Luckily you have plenty of space.

I make some leg protectors that are a little larger than those you have that will cover that probably, if you want to try a set PM me.

Thanks. I'll keep that in mind. I may still have some of the proper black paint, so it might just get touched up. I typically don't put cabinet protectors on, but these came with the game, so I just slapped them back on.

Grabbed these two pins yesterday. Picked them up just a mile from my place so didn’t even need to strap them in.
Both are projects with decent cosmetics and it’s a second go around with both these titles here.

Just made another epic road trip myself:

michigan and ohio…almost 1500 miles and this has to be it for a while until I can do some 2 for 1, 3 for 1 trades or sell some games!

Bad Cats- wife played in first tourney and took 1st place in her match so of course…got the nod to buy this one. Hard title to find, great Python art and really fun 1 ball play.

Mystic- had my eye out for one as I’m really digging the early 80s ballet games and have played this a few times in the tourney. Stencil kit included if I want to do cabinet as the rest is cherry with amazing playfield, backglass and boards

Grew up with basements but all of mine are in my climate controller pinbarn/pingarage and above the space in great room…

30 pins and bursting at the seams!

Quoted from jrcmlc:

wow…what a game it is! Played last night as I brought home last week and left with only a couple plays logged.

It definitely has that “one more time” factor. not quick and flowy like a lot of the modern games with stop and go action:

the fights, jumping rope and the speed bag, but it’s very addicting and a great theme.

Went through Louisville and if my mother-in-law hadn’t had a run in with Ali in the 80s, I’d have one sitting right next to it
