Doesn't seem to be any owned in the UK (could easily just not have updated their collection) which sucks because I would love to see one in person and play a few games on one. Anyone from the UK browse this thread own or know of any UK based WNBJM?

Quoted from ronaldvg:

If you are ever coming over to Belgium, I have one. It's about 600 km from Leicester

I cycled from France to Switzerland over a week during the Tour de France, so there is every chance I might drop by and take you up on that offer

Quoted from Electrocute:

Did you get the yellow jersey?

We didn't do jerseys but as abit of a motivater and joke between the 10 of us that went we brought jersey related socks with abit of a twist on the traditional use for them

Yellow socks for guy taking the lead the most the previous day

Green socks for guy taking on the descents the fastest (and wow are there some amazing descents in France and Switzerland - couple of very close calls)

Polka Dot socks for best daily climber (gotto get to the top of those amazing descents)

White socks for best old timer/rider - there was only 3 of us under 35 so these bad boys where in high demand.

One of the best non Pinball related things I've done although I did manage to find a couple pins during our road trip, one pin oddly enough at the top of Alpe d'Huez

Quoted from Electrocute:

Sounds like you had fun! Good for you

Yeah we are going out there again next year while the tour is on, take in some different routes and climbs, while catching the tour along the way and finish in Paris again, relax for a day while watchinv the tour finish there, recommend it to anyone.

Without derailing the thread too much are you a road biker? I imagine it's fairly flat (best kind of roads to ride) in Florida?

Anyway back to BIG Juicy Melons!

Quoted from Mooseman:

I have one. Love the game! Think 3 came over. I have one, heighway pinball has one and the other was last seen in electrocoins shop window. Met Dennis and Greg at expo, great guys. Looking forward to next whizzbang project.

Awesome I didn't know of any so 3 is more than I originally thought but still it must be one of the rarer games here in the UK. I have been looking at buying one for some time but it's one of those games I really want to play first before buying.

Quoted from PinsideMike:

So I took a little trip today up to the Saratoga pinball show. A little something followed me home. Do I get to keep it?

Wow NIB I thought Marco where boasting about having the only one left, nice find and congrates on the new addition.

Quoted from PinsideMike:

Yeah thanks. I saved almost 50% of what they were asking as well. Gotta give credit to Pinside for this find.

I always find Marco to be overpriced on most things, Pinballlife is my go to supplier for parts, even try Stern direct occasionally before I go to Marco.

Congrates again on the find and double congrates on the price
