At Expo:
- Pin*Bot CPR repro playfield from Starship Fantasy
- bag of 50 bulb caps (assorted colors -- getting hard to find the thick yellow ones)
- ST:TNG ship decals from a fellow Pinsider (I noticed later that one small decal was missing -- someone apparently took the one they needed)

At Pinball Life:
- LEDs for Bride of Pinbot
- New legs for TAF
- New glass for three machines (what a difference!)
- Misc. other parts

CPR Centaur PF!

Ahhh......you're the one that got that. Nice score! IMO that was the best parts booth at the show. They just kept bringing out more and more great stuff. Props to the guy that got the nice Pac-man playfield for $5......yes FIVE DOLLARS! Who bothers store it, load it and transport it to the show for a measly $5???

I picked up:
- Early WPC coin door
- Unpopulated Black Hole upper playfield, decent
- 2 sets of classic Bally shooter lane dress up kits
- Gottlieb Sys80-B sound board
- A nice M-E-T-E-O-R drop target bank
- 3 full sets of PinLED displays for classic Bally/Stern, untested (cheap!!!)
- A pair of pop bumper caps with LED rings
- Some Pinfooties
- A junk box full of early SS playfield mechs...lots of good coils
- A couple of AlvinG switch flippers
- Some Titan rings to try out
- Gottlieb Genesis project machine, complete except for reset board

3 shaker motors, repair parts for Fun House, about $100 in playfield rubber, two NOS translites, and about a dozen pinball flyers for my 60's and 70's games

Not pictured is a Bone Busters that was just added to my collection. I got the Counter Attack at the banquet auction. It's a ton of fun. It's a combination of airhockey and pinball. Most of the booze is my dads, as is the golf bag. He collects scotch.

Used on games like ST:TNG, TAF, etc. Some would use frosted LEDs, but I like the original look.

Just inside the door behind the 3 rows of games that were for sale to the left. It was at the booth next to the shuffle bowler.

Mr. moneybags here brought home some Titan and Super rings to try out, a fresh 5 pack of balls and a Kwik E Mart sticker for the TSPP (plus a bonus spare, thanks again Matt w/ Back Alley!)
Coveting the ColorDMD something awful now after seeing them in person. Maybe next year.

A $5, I'd rather be playing pinball license plate frame. That was it. Seriously.

I bought a super nice Blackout from a Pinsider in town for Expo---I'm really enjoying it.

My buddy grabbed a reworked board from the gentleman who was mostly selling reworked boards. Excellent handiwork and a fair price for several hours of tedious work we didn't want to do. Fixed the problem with his game, to boot!

It is not clear to me why anyone, from a business perspective, would get a booth at Expo to sell sundry used pinball parts (unless they happen to be super local), but it makes the show more interesting and I appreciate the effort!
