I have to say that this is my favorite thread on pinside. I can't explain why but I love seeing pics of machines loaded in vehicles going to/arriving at their new homes. I've got a problem I think.
Quoted from bigd1979:Thats crazy i had the same haul recently also ....lol my favorite pins ever. Great pickup
Man... how do you guys come up with these? Wow.
Man I'd love to have that Funhouse dirk. How about making a nice short trip to Allentown, PA this spring. The weather is lovely in early May.
Quoted from Max_Badazz:Not a pin, but I got some fun equipment installed on my roof today to run all of them
Just be careful up there in NH. Snow will slide off those panels like an avalanche. You don't want to be on the front porch if/when it happens.
Quoted from djreddog:It's not Royal Rumble because that cabinet is solid black along the back. This cabinet is blue down near the corner.
...and because Royal Rumble is Data East
Huo only? Did anyone else notice that there are coin slots on that machine? Who uses coins in a Huo machine?
Quoted from gac:Huo only? Did anyone else notice that there are coin slots on that machine? Who uses coins in a Huo machine?
Obviously was being sarcastic but idiot down votes. Sharpest tool in the shed? Probably not.
Quoted from stevevt:I've "had" this game for a while, but it just got a CPR gold playfield to match its nice cabinet, and I will finally get to put it through its paces.
Beautiful machine
Quoted from gac:Brought this home today. I've been wanting one for a long time.
[quoted image]
Brought her home a few weeks ago. Added brass lockdown bar, brass side rails, replated the three wireforms in brass. Cleaned up 90%. Still have to remove upper mini playfield to clean under, add diode cliffy protector, and get my biplane back (sent out to be painted and modded to add working propeller). I love this machine.

Quoted from dmieczko:Interesting weekend - grabbed a classic Bally, a modern Stern, and an upright arcade machine...
[quoted image][quoted image]
Let me know if you aren't planning to keep the arcade machine.
Quoted from AntennaMan:[quoted image]
Nice machine. Did you pick this up in Wallkill, NY by any chance?
Quoted from Wmsfan-GAP:Looks like it might have been a vendor/op tag of some sort.[quoted image]
That's pretty cool. Probably stands for F _____ Amusement Company.
Quoted from AntennaMan:Funny you mention this, here's a picture of the delivery guy. True story.
[quoted image]
Umm... why do you have a picture of the delivery guy?
Quoted from herbertbsharp:Grabbed these last night from some great pinsiders! I'm tired, they're still in the van lol. [quoted image]
Where did you pick up the TWD, if you don't mind me asking?
Quoted from ibuypinballs:Caught one today.[quoted image]
How early did you have to get to the sale to pick her up?
Quoted from ibuypinballs:They estate sale company contacted me the day before the sale to purchase it.
Nice pickup.
Quoted from RonSS:In before the 2019 lock!
Big thanks to Rob @Baller88 and of course my buddy with a van and the patience to help me lug this beast inside![quoted image]
Rob is a great guy.
Quoted from Pinkitten:It was a 2-fer day! Added a very nice 1978 Bally Strikes and Spares, and a super clean No-Fear! (Thanks, Adam) Those are both truly change-of-pace pins in my lineup! Adding another next week...believe it or not...wink wink![quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
Awesome machines all around but why do your other machines have a sheet of paper on the back glasses? Were they condemned?
Quoted from gliebig:Tag team back again....
That's all the lyrics I know.[quoted image]
Whoomp there it is
Quoted from RonSS:Oooh, I was thinking about that one! Very cool. Maybe we'll talk in a year or so?
Lol. Would have been 1 1/2 shorter round trip for you too! I think I was lucky to get it. He said I was the first to respond and he kept his word about selling it to me. Seller said he had over 50 emails after mine that included trade offers, etc. I was concerned about driving all that way and finding out he sold/traded it to someone else.
Quoted from DCRand:Not a great score, and not worth a lot. And a little rough around the edges. No not me, the machine. But interesting because not to many made.
[quoted image]
I didn't realize Barry from Storage Wars is on Pinside!
Quoted from DCRand:Posted this on Facebook and got the same comments. I don’t know whether to be insulted or flattered. But wish I had his money. LOL
Definitely should not be insulted. Nice pick up by the way.
Quoted from robotron:fast eddie brought me a really nice looking maverick looks HUO. thanks pinsider sagejr. ed says hello everyone. he has been really busy and wants to thank you all for the support.
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
Nice pick up (the Maverick, not Fast Eddie's... well his pick up is nice too). If you ever tire of it, let me know. Where are you in Middletown? Shoot me a PM if you don't mind. Thanks, Glen
Quoted from ccbiggsoo7:play it, don't hump it!
"You and the box should get a frickin' room for God sakes" in my best Dr. Evil voice.
Quoted from Jason43:Does this count?
[quoted image]
Just the lower playfield from an ACDC does not count!
Quoted from locksmith:Picked up a mint Sopranos and Namco 2004Donkey Kong / Mario 60 in 1 cabaret. Hurting some from the 90 degree jerk off basement steps which make the move painful. But they’re up and running which eases the pain. Will be selling the Video game if anyone is interested. [quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
[quoted image][quoted image]
Ok, I'll bite (pun intended). What are you asking for the video game?
Quoted from daveyvandy:My precious next to my precious
[quoted image]
And your daughter is in the picture too!
Brought home this beauty from awesome pinsider #sbmania. On the way back home I picked up a colordmd for it from another awesome pinsider #Butch2099. Both are super friendly, very welcoming, and extremely helpful. They are truly two of the "good guys" in our great hobby. Thanks very much to you both. Long day (7+ hour round trip) but a great day indeed.
IMG_3713 (resized).jpgQuoted from Isochronic_Frost:HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!
Today I turned 25 and I got woken up by a call from an operator I’ve been working for a few months. He said “I’m done screwing around with these other guys, if you want them all then tell me when you want to get ‘em”
I told him I’d be there in 2 hours!
Here’s my best haul yet, and it was only 20 miles from my house! He bought them all NIB and they’ve sat in the bowling alley for nearly 30 years! The decals look amazing. No fade. Some slight water damage but the games all play and function perfectly!
[quoted image]
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
Happy Birthday to you! Nice presents. That's a good day right there.
Quoted from Mathazar:You're a lucky man. The only way my wife smiles like that next to one of my pins is after I tell her I sold it.
You are luckier than me. My wife doesn't even smile. She just says "keep selling".
Quoted from Dimperio620:I'm a sick man! I picked up another Hyperball machine. I had an extra set of Hyperball boards and figured I could bring this one back from the dead. I hate to admit it but I know my way around a Hyperball machine. I plan on getting the second one running soon and then having a Hyperball throwdown on my twitch stream with both machines going. Like I said, I'm a sick man! Hahaha!
https://www.twitch.tv/lakeeriepinball[quoted image]
Two of them? Maybe not sick, but at the very least, soon to be deaf!
Quoted from dirkdiggler:I love new to me games. First Capcom and second pool themed game in a row.
[quoted image]
Very underrated game. I would love to have one someday. Especially the neon coin door version!
Quoted from drsfmd:Whoa! That's so weird... I just traded my Party Animal, Lady Luck and Fun Fest for a WCS! Oh wait...
Is that a big coincidence or just a coincidence? (Seinfeld reference... sorry, couldn't help myself)
Quoted from shacklersrevenge:I didn’t pick this up, but it was at the same place. Said “nobody has wanted it for $800 and it works!”
I thought it was (sorta) interesting.
Apparently, it was rethemed and used in an episode of law and order. Lol [quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
That's pretty cool actually.
Quoted from Pinkitten:Everyday, I’m eating more and more hotdogs. Eat, Fink! Eat!!!
This is the year that Fink beats The Stomach.
Quoted from TroyS:Almost there. Let it be a deal! It’s a modern Stern, any guesses?
Quoted from JojoRice:Got it a couple days ago....my first pin...sorry about the glare. [quoted image]
What a great first pin!
Quoted from Tallon:Picking up the wife’s game today.
[quoted image]
Those are words, unfortunately, I will never mutter.
Quoted from cottonm4:Why not? You think that is really his wife's pin.
My wife hates pinball. Doesn’t want me bringing home and keeping any games. I guess I’ve ticked her off 17 times
Quoted from cottonm4:And you are sleeping on the....?
[quoted image]
No… eventually she gets over it. And then I bring in another. “Of course I’m going to sell it!” Why else would I buy it?
