Bought this jungle lord about 7 years ago for $25 bucks. It has been in "storage"(at my parents) as I went through college, getting married, renting houses/apartments. Now I finally have a fully finished basement that I did this winter. Can't wait to go through this and get it 100%.

Yes it feels good to finally have some space for some pins!

Quoted from catalina:Congrats on getting the new room finished. I know what it is like trying to get an area put together that you have wanted for years!

The batteries were still in it, as I didn't know/remember how important it is to remove them. Needless to say I have learned a lot in that time and have since pulled them and will be remote locating the pack.

Quoted from wantdataeast:

I hope 7 years ago you removed the battery

My Dad bought this Jumping Jack in 2005 and was in pretty rough shape. The cabinet was painted electric blue and was quite the sight. We stripped it down, repainted it and is cosmetically looking pretty good. We never got the project finished, and was never playable. Well fast forward about 10 Year’s later... I brought it home to my place and cannot wait to go through it and play a 2 player game with my Dad.

Quoted from Cdonnerusmc:

Picked up a Funhouse from the original owner today! He said there has never been a quarter put into it, and I have no reason to disbelieve him. Looks amazing and would be mint other than the old mylar starting to bubble around the pop bumpers. This is probably the nicest all original (even Rudys mouth is original ) funhouse I have seen in over 20 year's. I honestly thought home use only machines of this era were non existing. Any way I plan on holding on to it for now. Here's a few pictures as it sits.

Wow! Very nice pickup!

Quoted from Micky:

Finally got my latest purchase home.
I purchased this machine back around the start of December from Victoria, which is about 1900kms (1200 miles) away, and was hoping to have it delivered just after new years. Long story short, lots of things went wrong with transport that was already booked etc and i finally got it home this week. Ended up still having to drive 400kms (250 miles) each way pick it up from the nearest capital city....also picked up some other pins for local mates while i was going.
I wasnt sure i would like it as it is a little different from most normal pinballs. But after just one game both my missus and I were hooked. It is the differences and the unique gameplay that definitely make it a winner for us.
I had a few mates around last night and everyone really enjoyed playing it. I might have to see about finding a second one later in the year.

Nice find! I’ve been looking for one lately as well, as it’s a blast of a machine to play. Have fun!

Quoted from NoQuarters:

Ship Ahoy or Buccaneer - good game. Really enjoyed the Ship Ahoy I had. It was one of the first pins I had and probably the first EM that I cut my repair skills on. Fun Game.

It’s a Buccaneer in great shape! fondly remember playing quite a few games on ship ahoy at expo back in 2009 with my Dad. It’s good fun! I need to get back to expo!

#21895 2 years ago
Quoted from Isochronic_Frost:

Picked up 2 Neo Geo’s, Primal Rage, Site 4 Area 51, a janky ass old Centipede Cocktail, a totally jacked Pac-Man cocktail turned into a Tetris, and finally the best part...
THE MACHINE: BRIDE OF PINBOT
TWILIGHT ZONE
And finally the cream of the crop OH YEAAAAAAH!
THE ADDAMS FAMILY!
I never ever thought the day would come where I own Addams Family and TZ.
That day still hasn’t, because neither are for me
Picked up one for a client and another for a pin buddy.
Bride is mine and it’s going into the arcade! Come play it in you’re near Toga.
My body is blown right out. Moving and transporting and delivering all these games in just a few hours was brutal. Some games were dumped. They all survived with only very minor scuffs and scratches. Most the arcades will be listed for sale as I have no interest in them. Neo Geo’s too!
There’s still more to come. Another big haul coming next month!

Nice to see all these F14s. It's in my top 5 game list. Still miss it and think of it routinely.

It’s a cool game for sure. I dig the top gun type Theme. cool sounds, lighting effects/flashers, and playfield. Gotta love good ol’ system 11s
