Zapcon 6 : Who&#039;s Going and What Are You Bringing ?

Zapcon 6 , Yes , six years now , is just around the corner April 21st & 22nd Mesa Arizona Convention center
http://www.zapcon.com and I want to see who is coming , what are you bringing , what you are looking for , what may be for trade or even for sale.
Seems like in AZ we go on radio silence, on pinside the month prior to Zapcon for some reason but CL is loaded with pins for sale .
I will be bringing a really fun and very nice Baywatch for all to play, so let me know what you're bringing !

I did see your other posts about that...dont know why there really isn't any promotion or advertising that I know of and I'm local and play league every week .
That's why I started this thread to get people talking .

I am going only have one pin but not bringing as paid to have it put upstairs, always looking for my 2nd pin for at least 5 years, love the event but even after playing them all can’t decide on 2nd one and decided to wait until games advance. Always like Metallica layout and want to try Maiden which I wanted made since I joined pinside 5 years ago or more. I enjoy playing Champion Pub every year so thanks to whoever brings it.

Finally got the GI all cleaned up and ready to go! I’m always curious to see how many plays it gets over the weekend, and what the high score ends up being.

There are fewer pins compared to last year (~120 to ~150 IIRC) but there are a lot of titles that I am looking forward to playing. I know some of these will be in the tournament area, which is a bummer, but hopefully will be available a little bit near the end.
