Yeah I've got nothing in that calibre, I'm just here to gawk st your lovely lineup

here's the link to the Shadow ad with pictures, folks: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=25127
For the newbies, this is down from the original asking of $6k and the last lowest number of $5500, so it's a smoking deal.

how many pins will fit inside the permanent building?

I love the spinning magnet! Very cool. It adds a random effect. And it's on the pro, which is appreciated. Premium has the van lock and the lane switching, and I don't really care about those features. Overall it looks like a great package, and if the sound is at all reminiscent of the TMNT arcade ...

'tis the season to stay in the far-cooler basement!

I'm so sorry, Ian
I feel that dread in my bones.

OMG! If that's 100 with the tent, what's the machine capacity just in the permanent building?

I cleaned up the garage but have just enough room for all the bikes and occasional storage of machines being swapped in and out.
Your garage looks super inviting, if it wasn't pandemic times

Very nice. If I only had the cash. BTW, that power supply is just a voltage regulator that was mandated by Ontario hydro companies. It was basically a cash grab/scam. It's pretty much worthless, except for it's weight in metal. I remove them and bring them in for scrap. Lightens the pin by about 20...

Hi,ALJO.....listen, would you have the chance to get me a picture of the whole playfield?

I dont think Aljo is on the site very often anymore.

And on top of that this post already has excellent photos, and on top of that it sold very quickly years ago.

One thing I would love to be able to see (and play) is an old carnival shooting gallery with animatronics. I remember seeing these as a little kid. They had either a jungle theme or a western theme. They seemed to run off compressed air and light sensors. You would shoot a piano player and he would...

https://www.kijiji.ca/v-toys-games/delta-surrey-langley/arcade-pachinko-machine-rare-1975-satomi-computer-pachinko/1475652458 There's a couple of those even floating around the Ottawa-Toronto corridor. Cool little things, it's nice to sometimes have a discrete game, with a proper start and finish

the pinballs are beginning to flow again!!!

I had a reminder on my phone to prepare for the Hawkesbury Flea Fair and now I'm bummed

oh yes, we've all thought about it, but cool that someone is attempting it! No videos, though? I can't wait until they can give us a highlights reel.

So a funny thing happened on the way to the forum... well... Alfred. LOL I was to drop off a cabinet. Yay! Space! ... I brought back 2 games. :FP: :lol: One for me, and one for a customer. I got a sah-weet Midway "Extra Bases" cocktail game. I had never heard of it, but it looked cool. Flat top, wi...

Call Michel at Player 1 he has lots

What kind of all-in price would DP be, assuming no special discounts?

can't say I'm a fan of this Covid-19 thing.

not a Niche Collections post, put some relevant arcade-spotting: exploring the arcade in a 1978 episode of a Japanese version of Spiderman http://pinballnovice.blogspot.com/2020/ ... ep-13.html

I think the first time I was over there I mentioned you'd be cleaning out that backroom storage, did I not?

Someone drive buy with a big enough truck and ill pull all 16 out of the garage....so easy when no stairs. I hear you guys say "basement" and I cringe.... :mrgreen: I'll say it again: If someone on Maaca is willing to fill a truck to bring pins to a future Ottawa show I'll happily pitch on the truc...

That thing is cool. I had to watch a YouTube video to see exactly what it does. I Can't help you with the levers.... sorry If a rough/project Pike's Peak comes up for sale I'll probably be able to make mine near perfect. In the meantime, I have it set for "novelty" play, which means you don't start...

so annoyed to think that a tornado fucked up 2018's OPGS and now a pandemic is probably going to cancel 2020's....

Looks sweet. Please tell me Jungle Lord is still around? What a great game.

I picked up a decent condition Pike's Peak circa 1939-1941. Problem is one of the internal metal bars is broken & missing. It's a metal bar that would get pushed by the coin slide to let everything reset. Not super complex, but metal is not my forte at all. Anyone have any experience working on meta...
