Quoted from dirtbag66:And lots of facial hair!
My dad always told me "facial hair is a sign of laziness".
Words to live by!
Who are you to judge anyone? You don't know me or how hard I work. You and your dad can take a flying leap.

Sounds to me like jealousy! Who are you to judge anyone? You have no idea how hard I work. I have my own judgements on you and your dad, but I was taught to keep negative comments to myself.
Quoted from jmountjoy111:Wait.... so you're telling me I'm bald and lazy?!?!
My dad is way cooler than your dad just saying. Lol
I like this!
Quoted from Lord_of_the_pins:Thanks to a awesome pinsider for shipping this bad boy to me !
Congrats! She looks very nice. I still have yet to play a Spider-Man.
Quoted from Piratedan200:Just got these two tonight! One is going to my MIL's house after I shop it up a bit, but they're both mine in the meantime!
Congrats on the bk2k I want that one badly!
Quoted from jmountjoy111:I picked this one up on Friday. I'm not much of an em guy so I don't know how long it will last. It cleaned up pretty well. I need to clean a stepper or two cause it won't go to game over after the fifth ball, just keeps playing lol. There's the reason I'm not much of an em guy lol.
I'm pretty sure I have that playfield as a wall hanger and I didn't know what game it was from.
Quoted from McSquid:Black Knight 2K! one of my all time favorites!

Great game one of my all time favorited as well.
Quoted from Damonator:HUO Whirlwind - stoked to find this one!!!
Wow that thing looks brand new! The spinner decals aren't even wore out. Very jealous!!!
Quoted from Skyemont:I picked this up. Needs TLC. Not a find like most of you but it's something.
Great find! This was one of my first games and I love it! Wish I still had mine!
Lol I was gonna ask what was up with the brown m&m in the first picture.
Quoted from Spencer:Set up! No room in the basement, dining room looks good...
Quoted from Lord_of_the_pins:Haha ! Nope it was a pro but gave him a little cash . Thanks to a great pinsider @ twilight1 !!
Nice pick up! Tims a great guy.
Quoted from dirkdiggler:Had to share pics of a very nice example of one of my grail games. Don't see this one going anywhere!
Wow nice pick up it looks to be in great shape! Who picked up the jp?
Quoted from shacklersrevenge:Bobby Orr project , Black Knight 2000 project .. both are pretty much complete.
Nice bk2k pick up! Can't wait to find one.
Quoted from dirkdiggler:Been way too long since my best bud has come on a pickup with me.
Nice pick up man. Game looks cool.
Quoted from luckycreature:I know it's a Zizzle but darned if I'm not excited to let my toddler see if after school tommorow. Easiest three hour round trip after work I've ever made.
This is cool where do I find one for my daughter?!?!?
Quoted from shacklersrevenge:Picked up Aero the other day and today I picked up this-been wanting one bad.
That’s no moon.

Looks like you picked up 2x Aerosmith in that picture.
Quoted from Pinhead306:Looks like you picked up 2x Aerosmith in that picture.
Haha I was thinking the same.
Quoted from shacklersrevenge:Has the famous crack down the leg, so it came with a brand new cabinet that Stern sent the guy I picked it up from.
Gotta say, pretty populated too, speaker, flipper switches, latch keep, etc... good on them.
Oh nice that’s decent!
I was contacted on a dead or alive ad I have posted and got this project high hand. I really want an em but I don’t want to over pay, I end up passing it on to a good friend because he has it on his wish list. Hopefully karma pays me back, Seems like a cool pin.

[quoted image]
Looks in very nice shape congrats!
Picked this beauty up from a fellow pinside. Don’t see these around in the wild too much here so I’m stoked to play it. The code looks really good! Too bad it wasn’t a Chevy.

[quoted image]
Sttng, ngg and what’s the third one?
Quoted from Pablito350:Very excited about this one. It's been awhile between pins. Paul's driving back from a pick up as I write this. Any guesses? Slight clue on his shirt. Like how his plaid matches the blanket.
[quoted image][quoted image]
I vote rocky and bullwinkle?
Or pick up a couple pieces of pvc pipe to roll the game on, from your local hardware store. Get them a bit wider then the cabinet. Makes loading games in the back pretty easy.
Quoted from rmerlo88:Scored this today! She needs a bit of work but look looking forward to the challenges![quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
What’s with the two royal rumbles in the background?
Quoted from dirkdiggler:Because of a amazing friend I have the chance to play one of my 5 favorite games of my youth in all its incandescent glory. Even has that smoke, pool hall smell that is burned in my memory. KINGPIN

That thing looks beauty!
Can’t believe this was hiding in a random sask basement! Glad to have this beauty ! Is it from Pinball life or pinball refinery?

Quoted from drummermike:Time to get your lottery tickets!
Quoted from ZfromEarth:Ohhh wow. This is beautiful! How much was it?
Quoted from AUKraut:Nice, looks like a Pinball Refinery!!
Quoted from Twilight1:Nice pick up man
Thanks so much you guys! Such a beautiful pin!! So happy that a friend passed this onto me. It is kicking my ass!
Quoted from Pinkitten:Congrats on the awesome Tron! Yours is the first I’ve seen with the same 2-color frame as I have. No idea who did it. Beautiful pin! It doesn’t get confused with any other game. Here’s mine for comparison...not brought home today tho.[quoted image]
Thanks so much. I’m glad to see another one. I think they are so beautiful. I heard it might be a run from Pinball life but I’m not really sure. Cannot find much info on them at all.
Quoted from pinballlife:Not really a "Pinbll Life" project, just me and a couple of friends (Dino from Pinball Metal and Andrew from APB Enterprises) having fun and killing time during the winter months back in 2012 or so. I believe we made 3, maybe 4, of them. We put EVERY mod in those suckers, plus the custom powder coating. IMHO they turned out very nice.
Terry.
Cool thanks. That’s good to know. I love mine I think they are awesome. And loaded to the nines!
Cheers
Jamie
Quoted from dar8dar:Scored this SBM today
It’s been in the same family for 37 or 38 year's
Hasn’t been been turned on in over 13 years
Everything works missing a couple of posts and one wire form. Only had to travel 37 miles one way. 200.00 bucks.

That’s in beautiful shape! Great pick up.
Quoted from Flynnyfalcon:Picked up this WCS a few days ago. In reasonable condition, plays sweet. Such a fun pin!!! Gooooaalll!!!
[quoted image]
Nice score! I want to have a wcs for awhile!
Quoted from northerndude:Posted in the Rick and Morty thread but couldn’t resist my favourite thread here. I’m just so frickin jacked about this pin!! Worst part is, 2.5 hours to home, gotta rip straight to the golf course as I have a match play tee time at 6:12. It’s gonna kill me to be on the course (which is my favorite place on earth)[quoted image][quoted image]
Congrats Dude! It’s going to be worth the wait! Call in sick tomorrow haha.
Quoted from sixtyfourbits:I usually read through this thread every day, and love reading about everyone’s awesome finds. Well, today was my day. Out of the blue I was contacted this morning about an awesome pin for an awesome price. I drove 4 hours round trip without seeing pics first. And I’m still super ecstatic. The seller was a great person, who explained that after having it folded up in her basement for ten years (And the level of dust on it fully supports this), she just wanted it gone and was happy to get the space back. What a great day.[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
Nice find that looks in beautiful condition. Such a great game!
My wife’s cousin picked this up for me a couple weeks ago. He’s storing it in his garage until I get some time off and can make the drive there to pick it up. The glass was broken when he picked it up for me.

[quoted image]
Is that a Getaway? Not high speed 2
Quoted from jvivlemore:TWD Pro. My first pin! Picked it up last night.
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
Great first pin! I still love my walking dead!
Quoted from TxJay:I "dug up" this pin a couple of weeks ago and hadn't had a chance to post pics...so here you go...[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
Never seen that backglass before, it’s badass!
Quoted from Superpops1:We finally added an EM
[quoted image]
Looks like a cool game. I really like the artwork on the playfield and cabinet.
End up picking up two games at the yegpin show in Edmonton this weekend! Had to send one home with a friend and store it in his garage for a few days. Thanks to transprtr4u for checking off a grail spot with a beautiful bk2k. And thanks to nitro for the Wonka from their booth! What a great event the diehard crew put on! Had a blast and met a ton of great pinheads! Can’t wait till next year.

Quoted from jrpinball:Picked up the next "victim" for pinhead52 ("Wizard" conversion). Has a nice playfield and pretty good backglass, so contact Ken if you need either one.
Don't know when he will actually have it in his possession though.

Helped a friend unload these into his garage when he got home from picking them up.

I'm a craft beer guy and think the pin community would look favorably at craft beer.
Problem is the current costs of machines means you're gonna need at minimum $100k cdn just for a 10 pin lineup... plus build out and permits.
Better to just go direct to a few breweries and make inroads for a few of their corners in the brewery.
When we first started our scene here in Regina it had to be with craft beer. We end up taking a que from the awesome collectors group in Calgary and going the collaborative route to get an awesome location lineup going. We all had small collections at that point so 5 or 6 of us all chipped in a machine or two whatever we could and then it’s much more achievable then one person bearing all the weight of 100k commitment. Honestly wouldn’t suggest any other way for a group to start.
Just my 2 cents.
Cheers
Quoted from koji:He was pretty clean despite himself.. But I will need to swap out some leds.. The colored leds in the gi aren't doing it for me. Not sure about the white either.. Maybe warmer.
Anyway, brought home today. Time to find some hot dogs and clean the streets.
[quoted image]
Awesome pickup! One of my favourite Williams games.
Quoted from Green-Machine:Love the Graupel on the glass. Looks cold in there!
Buddy showed up with the head up in the box of the truck not wrapped at all. Had to take out the bolts and lay it over in -25 with windchill. Good thing I brought the tools lol
Very excited to have this rare beauty in the collection! Thanks very much to pinhead52! It arrived packed and pallet perfectly and in mint condition. Beautiful workmanship Ken!
