Quoted from TractorDoc:

Yesterday turned out to be a Classic Stern Haul-A-Day for me.
[quoted image]
I did make the trip to pickup the Seawitch from tdiddy (Thanks again!), but look close in the cargo hold and there is a bit more hiding under those blankets.
I originally had plans to pickup a playfield yesterday that I've been pestering the seller about for awhile. While making the playfield pickup I had the opportunity to be the new owner of a second/additional playfield. . . it was difficult to say no (so I didn't ).
[quoted image]
Finally, this was the original goal. A populated Cheetah playfield that I've been told was in the rafters of a barn for many years. Definitely dirty and some planking is present but less artwork wear than what my current game has. Perhaps between the two I can send some plastics to CPR to have new ones made/available.
[quoted image]
The domestic Cheetah approves!

Quoted from RWH:

You can wear the air here in Cincy and it's not going to change anytime soon.

Quoted from RonSS:

Pretty certain Elvira comes with plastic already!

Quoted from MikeO:

Just picked up this Atlantis yesterday. While hard to believe, no, it wasn't in a fire.
Unfortunately, no, it isn't washing off either. Story is the previous owner was a really big smoker.[quoted image]

Quoted from MikeO:

All I've tried so far is a good general cleaner I use and then magic eraser with isopropyl alcohol.
I'll try mean green and the 600 grit wet sanding. Anything would be better than having to repaint this because the rest of it is quite nice.

Quoted from gianfri:

I got a phone call from a guy who didn't know which pinball model his grandfather had in the cellar.
Zaccaria was the only known information.
In my hopes there were few models I was looking for since a while now.
I then tried to give some hints which were part of my hopes: "Is it a theme with an almost naked woman with batterfly...", and the answer was: "yes, that's it"
Bingo!
I drove there and I brought it home

Wasn’t expecting to get a rollergames, not mad about it either![quoted image]

Quoted from Nihonmasa:

Great game! You'll enjoy it! On my wishlist

Quoted from Spyderturbo007:

Just had this delivered today. Got it from the same operator I bought my Avatar and Rolling Stones from previously.
It’s in pretty good shape, but needs a good cleaning and some mechs rebuilt. It plays 100%.
I put a new DMD in when I got it home because the old one had a bunch of lines through it.
Cabinet is a little beat up, but I don’t mind. Playfield is great except for some wear in front of the drop target.
Not bad for having $10,959.75 through it.

Quoted from ckcsm:

Great pin hauler!
Those fold away seats are the ticket; I used to have a Chevy Venture extended van, but you had to remove all the seats for that, what a PITA.

Quoted from robertmee:

Evaluating....elvira is the only one I'll probably end up keeping. The rest I'll either pass on as projects or restore a few. The playfields are the tough ones...many 60s, 70s gottliebs and ballys with all the mechs still attached. 90% of the platfields are populated to some degree. Some with nice art, some worn. I just am not well versed in EMs.

Quoted from Thor-NL:

So are undertakers

Quoted from bluespin:

That’s because until now you’ve only see the stock translite with Alex Baldwin’s picture

Quoted from Isochronic_Frost:

Or maybe like this? Just picked this up after playing tag with a flaky CL seller. After failing to show up twice I gave it one last shot and a crazy, old cat lady showed up in a car loaded with stickers declaring “Catitude”
She claims she bought it from an operator in Long Island when she was 18 and has owned it for over 45 years. Amazingly the game actually starts right up and after fixing one bent relay switch, it works pretty darn well!
Kinda cool, never worked on an EM this old!

It’s been a minute since I saw a fad as dumb as saying “it’s been a minute” to mean it’s been years.....
Carry on.

Quoted from jimgravina:

Thanks guys! Also brand new to the forum and the whole pinball world. Played a few games in the arcade as a kid but that's about the extent of it. And yeah, this is really just part of a Back To The Future collection piece...but I guess time will tell!

Quoted from Beaumistim:

theres a space invaders sitting right now in madesto CA, on KLOV for 550 bucks

Quoted from KSUWildcatFan:

The last of the pins from the lady who sold me these for $2000. Sadly I didn't get her Pinbot as it was gone before I found her.[quoted image]

Quoted from KSUWildcatFan:

The Tacoma has been great to us, for sure.
I'm not looking forward to fighting this high speed. It's very grumpy lol

What's a high speed project worth, little playfield wear and musty[quoted image]

Quoted from Nihonmasa:

Have been working on a big trade for a while and the pins finally showed up![quoted image]

Quoted from psd4me:

Got back at 4am this morning and here's the stuff I brought back from York. 2 Continental Cafes and a Flip Flip from ibuypinballs Thanks Pete. I didn't get a pic of the FF.
[quoted image]
A big time project Drop a Card but the price was right (free)Thanks JimFNB. Also not from York but picked up in Oh on the way there, a new cab for my project WW from Quartereater. The last big piece I need to get started on that.
[quoted image]
And made a trade with gdonovan for a Gottlieb Hots Shots. This was in the pic with the Flip Flop I didn't take lol.
Also bought a Ready Aim Fire pf and traded skip a couple of parts games for a Buck Rogers and Flip Flop pf and a better cab for the D a C

Quoted from Mikespinball:

Look what came home today. Okay guys this should be an easy guess to what it is.[quoted image]

Quoted from apinballwiz:

One of the best games ever made! Congrats and enjoy!

Quoted from Silverstreak02:

With that said I’d like to hear more about the games. What did you get, plans, etc. Tell us more.

Quoted from mark532011:

Nice catch, congratulations

Quoted from miracleman:

Is there a good story to go with that?

Quoted from cottonm4:

Bluespin and I hit the credit button on a Popeye at TPF 3 years back. Let's just say, there was no line backed up to play and we did not stick around. Although, I think we managed to play all 3 balls before we walked.
but 243 pinsiders own it and 184 want it. So what do I know. At least there are 184 people to sell to

been a while since i picked up games in the wild and brought these two poorly treated projects home today from a 3 game grab, But sent SOF home with a friend /

Quoted from goodypin18:

My first and probably last NIB. Game is insanely good for a standard edition.

Quoted from jvivlemore:

TWD Pro. My first pin! Picked it up last night.

Quoted from Manny65:

Question is - how many pins can you fit in the back??

Quoted from cottonm4:

Dig out a quarter and you can flip for your choice. Heads is GNR. Tails is RM.

Quoted from KSUWildcatFan:

Awesome! Really the PF isn't necessary to remove, but I just don't trust pushing against the cab with my body weight (with it just 'falling' down the stairs) so the only way I try taking things down solo is if it's completely in parts, with the playfield going down by itself. But really the head needs to come off for two people to comfortably take a game down. Head on requires 3 in order to guarantee nothing gets damaged as it goes down, just because of the logistical nightmare of the sharp 90 and the too-small landing. My wife is going to curse my name forever if I drop dead before I sell everything...lmao

Quoted from KSUWildcatFan:

Hahahaha, or just stop moving pins around for a bit. Hopefully my HS coming home, Space Shuttle leaving, and BKSOR joining are the last moves I make for a while. I've moved 25 games up and down these stairs in two years, I think it's time to settle down and play for a bit.

Quoted from KSUWildcatFan:

lol
I'm feeling pretty good about the lineup and will be stingy AF with my budget for a bit, so maybe that will help keep me away from purchases, at least temporarily. One can hope, right?! Because probably not.

Quoted from KSUWildcatFan:

Saw my avengers Hulk LE off (headed to Vegas in trade) and brought home some stuff that I didn't need .. left a couple of joker poker playfields behind for the time being.
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from KSUWildcatFan:

OK OK OK OK OK OK OK I don't want to act like I think I'm 'too good' for a pin like LW3, it's just that in a collection of 7 like I have...I feel like the cutline is past something like LW3. Obviously if I could have more--10, 15, 20, etc--that dynamic would change. But yeah.
Tbh I don't hate the way it plays. The shots are kind of cool and I love the ramp. The sound is.... Very annoying. But the game isn't that bad. Making progress on shopping it out; it's suuuuuper dirty. I've got the ugliest part left before I'm done....
