Quoted from roffels:^ if i had the cash... Just seems like a good game to have side by side with Drac.
Play them side by side in the dark. I get the chills when I play Dracula in the dark
Quoted from brobra:Thought I’d share an outstanding original ‘65 game. Looks like it came off the show room floor….

6,000 plays in 60 years - practically new.
It’s such a bonus to a get a nice clean game.

This one was well maintained, and dialed in. Servos and Frankenstein throw mechanics work perfectly.

The playfield does show wear at heavy traffic scoops, but there’s nice Mylar installed that’s saved most of it.
The cabinet is in fine shape sans the moving dings under the coin door.

Gave her a light cleaning, a few rubbers, and nice light wax.
I’m starting to drift away from LEDs on all games and left this on incandescent.

Mate that game is awesome. That and cross town were the first pinball machines that I played as a 5 year old at my local swimming venue.
I had a beautiful SweetHearts that I regret selling a few years ago. If I believe the story from the guy I bought it off it was a HUO game and it looked it. And a great game to play. Last of the gobble hole games! I always wanted a game as old as me. This was it.
Great to see you around again Chad. Love your pinball shenanigans

That’s a great sweethearts. I actually had a gorgeous restored one last summer, and came into a rougher one last fall. I ended up trading it for a game or two to parlay things up.
I love the gobble hole games. I have a square head with is the sequel to egghead which has prominent gobble holes.

Are you still taking about a pinball machine?

Just gave your contact info to a seller with a late 1980's game. I hope it's a good deal for you.
LTG : )

Thanks buddy, I talked to him. Also took care that playboy move, and got the dialed in a cleaned up for its new home.
You wanted the best, you got the best!
Smashes has some great remixes on there - as well as the two new tracks. Rock Hard is so underrated.
Quoted from Methos:Love the Hofner and Rickenbacker on the wall. Now who played those instruments?
Those aren't actual guitars lol but i appreciate the compliment - they're my some of my rockband guitars for xbox - from the beatles game.

I had the Hofner, but didn't know they made the Ric for it too.

Ah yeah, they made the gretsch too, a split strum bass, even a gutted out actual stratocaster made for rockband(the strum is garbage on that though, still working on replacing it), RB4 had a jaguar and the red and white strats(red pictured in my avatar), madcatz made a telecaster 3/4 size replica too!
Another tight move, 28” doorway, and only 28” at the 90 degree turn in the landing. Glad I knew this going in and extracted the head when I broke it down at the sellers place.
Ultimately, it was success, and there’s going to be new generation of fans to keep our hobby strong.

Makes it all worthwhile !

Quoted from jibmums:Cool, you don't often see Roller Disco in someone's collection.
It was fun to play and in really nice condition.
Quoted from LTG:You've missed all the fun. Since your help on Godfather CE, I've had 5 new pins come in.
LTG : )
I know. Loving the new line up!
I helped you move around 5 games and unsuccessfully get GTF going….you and Jackson ultimately solved it.
There’s proof of life on you working

Bad cats turned out nice. Wiring harness was not secured so 6 switch errors were caused by pulled wire. Cleaned up nicely, and added some LEDs. Playfield is gorgeous. Main cab is silkscreened, but this was a Mix match game where it was given a decaled head.
IMG_1479 (resized).jpegIMG_1481 (resized).jpegBusy weekend…. Helped with some work dialing in Drop-a-Card….such a cool and fun Gottlieb Em. I believe it was the last small flipper game. It’s so nice to have a deep Gottlieb Em parts collection.
This nice Space Odyssey may be available if it’s your flavor.
Also help a fellow collector get is Kiss LE, and Bally Kiss prepped for shipping. KISS LE had 11 lifetime plays (guy never played it).
Now off the hitting the projects I’ve been neglecting for a while.

Picked up and incredible toy from a local pinball and radio collector. He gave me a 1941 zenith model long distance console tube radio. It works on low band and high band fm, am, and short wave. I can receive signals from very far away. I’ve set a low band fm transmitter connected to Bluetooth to play tunes. I’m over joyed with it.
I also had an opportunity to see his gorgeous Seeburg 1954 Select-o-matic 2000. It’s a stunning piece.
Other notables, finally started getting hot shots and have it playing after repinning the J6 connector for the switch matrix.
And just traded for a ghost busters pro.
It was a very busy week!

Brobra went above and beyond this past week helping me with my games. He responds promptly even when I bother him after hours.
Highly recommend him.

Thanks for all the opportunities. I love installing mods. I appreciate the compliment. It means a lot to me.
Hit up Drekker in Fargo to meet another Pinsider.
Checked out part of line-up Fargo Pinball operates.
Kind of dig Spooky’s Loony Tunes. It brought me back to eating Froot Loops in my underwear…

Had a hard time getting into queen.

Jaws grabbed me a bit. Took me a while to hit that shark fin.
