Got a NIB Houdini at the beginning of January ... Showing interest in the Kingpin remake!
Quoted from Mike_M:Samir Nagheenanajar: You know what I would do if I had enough money for a NIB? I would invest half of it in mutual funds and then take the other half over to my friend Sadulach who works in Securities.
Waaah Waaaaaaaaah (sad trombone sound)
Quoted from Tuna_Delight:Waaah Waaaaaaaaah (sad trombone sound)
Well at least dgoett got my Office Space reference...
Well right now it's like being a kid in a candy store. So many good titles....not sure what I want next...plus more good stuff coming from Chicago Gaming in the weeks ahead. Dialed In, Alice Cooper Nightmare Castle, Iron Maiden.....next Chicago Gaming remake. MMr is always a title thats in my brain.........I can't help but drool in anticipation of what Brian Eddy is going to create at Stern in 2019 too......
I’m going to commission JJP to make my very own game......” Jonny Quest”. It will have to be a double wide body due to the wealth of material from which to source. Anyone out there under 50 who doesn’t know JQ..... google the original cartoon series. Every kid back then wanted to be Jonny. Heck, I STILL want to be Jonny!
Love to get Dialed In. Such a fun game and definitely has that premium look and feel. I can almost justify the huge price. Almost but not quite.
If I could buy TNA today I would. However I'm not inclined to wait 6 months and if I HAD ordered already, I would be a bit upset that people who ordered Alice after I ordered TNA would get their game before me.
I used to be a maiden fan back in the day so I'm predisposed to like that but I'm also a huge star wars fan and had no interest in buying one of those after playing it.
If the next CGC remake is monster bash and they don't completely screw it up I'll probably end up with one of those.
So basically whoever can make a game I want and get it to me first will get my money.
Quoted from jorge5240:AFMLE for me
And a bunch of vids
That is what the kids like
Hey that looks familar!
We just got a new bowler!

Hey, we 40 somethings still got the reruns. Johhny Quest would be a cool theme. Check out The Venture Brothers on Adult Swim. It's sort of a Johnny Quest rip off. I prefer the original though.
Have the cash, and nothing is appealing to you? That's where I'm at. Chime in on this thread if that's you too.

Have tna on order but I'm so far down the list (337) that I may have to get something in the meantime. Maybe a DI.
Quoted from bigd1979:3 color gi like lots of other sterns.... i had a loaded luci but it didnt last real long... ok game but there are much better pins imo for the money i got for her. Dile is a great choice imo
Yea, acdc didn't last long at my place either. I think 3 months.

Heck yeah! Can you imagine the opening theme music being played during multiball ?! I’m tellin’ ya ....Lizard men, Dr. Zin, jet packs, ..... the list is endless !

It would be great for sure! So an idea ala BM66. Do a Venture Brothers pin to appeal to the young folks, then make an LE that's Johnny Quest themed.
Quoted from dgoett:They are mirco. Have you ever installed a new Mirco playfield? THe clear is super brittle. If you were to hammer in Tnuts like Stern does at the factory, you would have a pile of chipped and broken clearcoat on the table. Check out the metal wire guides on DI and Hobbit, etc. You'll see shattered clear around them.
As TheLaw says, they are putting protectors on the holes now, but the clear isn't any better. We have had one on route about a year and the clear is chipped SO badly - way worse than stern or Williams. On a $9k game this shouldn't be the case - hence why I won't add one to the collection. Love the game though.
All Mirco has to do is change the clear. Put a flex agent in it. I've installed SO MANY Playfield Renovations and HSA cleared playfields that never have problems like that. If you don't predrill the holes on top of the playfield on a Mirco, when you start the screw the clear lift right off the printed art and leaves a halo where it separated. And NO, it's not just an isolated indecent. Happen on 99% of them.
Good to know,thanks for posting this information.

It gets easier to justify once you buy it and play for 6 months. Yep staying
