This is the latest arrival and will be the last one going in my game room next Sunday.
Star Trek LE Pinball Refinery "Hemi Edition" #1
It was unboxed Saturday morning, but we underestimated the amount of time it was going to take moving and setting up all the machines, so I have to wait another week.
Quoted from MiamiRedSkin:Let's start a thread where we can post our most recent pick-ups! I love hearing stories of machines and deals people made and found, so let's post all of the pictures here. I'll start! It is still sitting in my car!

To be honest, it is still in the back of my car and I haven't really inspected the machine much. It was a deal that I couldn't pass up, even if the condition is lacking and needing work. I will update when I get it out and can take a better look at it!

looking forward to seeing more pics and updates ! i bought my TOTAN a few weeks ago... such a great game !
Quoted from lyonsden:Picked these up two months ago. Were sitting in a trailer for 5+ years. Have three of the four working now. Well, mostly working. Have Star Wars in play testing now. Much more work to be done over the summer.

Wow. That is sweet!
How many machines are there total?
Would you mind sharing how much you paid? (If that's too personal, I respect that).
Quoted from chadderack:LOL.
The dog says, "RRRR this is MINE!" >
He's got his own collection
I "bought" a pin yesterday by sending $, and it is being delivered on Friday. So, posting as a placeholder until it gets here.

Nice pickup! I have always wanted to play this one.. and that cabinet is looking good!
My 1981 Bally FIREBALL 2 showed up at 6:45 this morning. Has a NOS Playfield installed...just need my tech to do the swap. Pretty rare machine + should look pretty nice when its all done. Never played one before but its got a ton of drop targets. Hope its a keeper!! P6040167.JPGP6040169.JPGP6040168.JPG
Congo came home yesterday -- bought it at the Ohio show but it's been at a friend's house since. Glad to add it to the mid-90's Bally/Williams row.
Got it set up, hooked in an external sub and tweaked out some LEDs on the playfield. It had a ton of green in the GI and I wanted to see more of the color in the artwork so I changed some out for whites.
Just gotta get Johnny Mnemonic home to go next to it now!

The flippers on that Congo look sweet
Quoted from QuarterGrabber:The flippers on that Congo look sweet
Thanks - the photo probably makes them look cooler than they really are. They're just (new) standard yellow flipper bats with green SuperBands. The LEDs make them glow kinda nice though.
Quoted from MiamiRedSkin:Any acquisitions this weekend?
A Pinsider picked up a my Spider-Man today.
I didn't get anything... But, I helped a friend grab his new Tommy. An easy load, an easy unload, no issues, and then we played the crap out of it. It had been a little while since I played a fully working Tommy. It's a fun game. And I bet anything that he is still playing it right now
Quoted from DarkTruth:Posted on pinside I wanted to get a fp2 and got a reply within hours. Couldn't be happier. Found her way up in Maine. Condition is fantastic. A big thank you to the pinsiders who made this happen!
watch your crop in that last photo...
know what you're up to tonight!
