Looking for a pinball machine

Post by Darrin »

Hello,

I'm looking to buy a pinball machine. Prefer a DMD one from around the 90's era. Though a really fun mid solid state would be welcomed to.

I'm located in Eastern Ontario (Brighton). If you have any you'd like to sell please send me a message with the price and of course, the name of the machine.

Some of the ones (but not all) I'm interested in:

Medieval Madness
Theatre of Magic
Attack from Mars
World Cup Soccer
Tales of the Arabian Nights
The Getaway
Cue Ball Wizard
Monster Bash
No Good Gofers
Black Rose
Circus Voltaire
Corvette
High Roller Casino
Operation Thunder
Mousin' Around
Pinball Magic
Playboy 2002
Red & Ted's Roadshow
Street Fighter II
Who Dunnit
Monopoly
Indianapolis 500

This is just an idea list and does not represent only the machines I'm interested in. There's way too many to list them all.

Looking at up to $5,000. Yes, I'm aware that a lot of these are out of that price range. But doesn't hurt to ask..

Actually it’s more like almost all are outside your price range. I’d guess that Mousin’ Around is the only game in your budget. There was one listed a few weeks ago.

Many in your list are 2 to 3 times your budget(some even more than that). Just saying this to give a bit of perspective since we don’t know you and don’t know if you aware of how stupid the prices have gone since the start of the pandemic.

Gone but not forgotten
So many... CCrLE, WOZ ECLE, Stern POTC, Star Trek Pro, MMrRE, Stranger Things LE, Dr Who, RFM, SWEP1, Road Show, Monster Bash, Twilight Zone, Lord of the Rings, Simpsons Pinball Party, Demolition Man, Terminator 2, Funhouse, Tales from the Crypt, High Speed, Bad Cats, Flintstones, WWF Royal Rumble, Laser War, Laser Ball, Silver Slugger, Batman Forever, Pinbot, 6 Million Dollar Man, Galaxy, Meteor, Countdown, Hot Tip(SS), and others I just can't think of lol.

There is a whole world of pinball to discover beyond AAA titles.
You might want to look into some Data East machines for example.
An easy way to try machines you don't know is to play virtual pinball like Pinball Arcade and Pinball FX.
Judge Dredd, Road Show, Last Action Hero, Rocky & Bullwinkle, Stargate, F14 Tomcat

There is a nice NoFear posted here for $5800. Under $5k price point doesn’t get you much these days with respect to a 1990’s DMD unless it is a low end players condition.

Good Luck with your search.
