I finally put the finishing touches on my LOTR last night. I'm calling it my PREMIUM edition ;) Our resident enabler helped me pick up this very nice HUO example last Winter and I love the game... but I felt that it could use a few imporvements; most of them cosmetic. I spent the last year...

Look what arrived in the mail yesterday ;) For those of you that don't frequent Pinside, one of the very talented members there put this together. Its a full kit that includes an all original shadow translite and matching speaker panel... as well as a custom set of cards. Unlike some past...

Thanks to Frolic for bringing this to my attention. My life is now complete. Looks like "someone" is going to announce a Big Lebowski pin!!!! :D :D :D http://dudepinball.com/ I always said that, if nobody did it, I would eventually want to do a custom re-theme. Looks like I just had my...

Well, he had a good run and was a huge part of pinball for many years. His son just released the news a few hours ago. RIP

So, the rumour mill has sort of started and I've read in one of JPOP's private blogs that there may be an announcement at EXPO this year regarding Pat Lawlor's return to pinball. No more detail I'm afraid. Any speculations or other inside info? Wonder if he's going to go hook up with a...

Okay, so whether you've been collecting for years or just started, most guys know that most A/B list games have a lot to offer. With enough of these under my belt, I've spent a lot of the last year exploring other eras and types of pins to see what else was out there for me. One recent purchase...

Oh, poor EM section... time for some more love :D I bought my first EM almost a year to the day last October. A Centigrade 37 no less! My love affair with these classic Gottlieb wedgeheads has been strong ever since and I have 6 of them to date. I find I sometimes play them more than my modern...

I was going to post this in "what did you do today?", but figured the EM section of this forum doesn't get a lot of love :( So, I've been contemplating letting my Gottlieb Jacks Open go. I've had a year-long love affair with wedgeheads since getting my Centigrade 37, and now I'm up to 6...

So, I've purchased 3 of the color DMD kits to date. It seemed a no brainer as I needed to replace a couple of DMDs anyway, so now I have 3 spares. MM got installed right away. TAF got set aside while my game was folded and WH2O was purchased but I also never got around to installing it. Knowing...

I'm not usually a fan of posting content directly off other forums, but I found this very interesting and possibly valuable to those with bad ghosting on their playfields... specifically any of the BW Jpop pins which seem to suffer the most from this. I'm ording some of this stuff and will test...

Well, I succesfully completed my first true board repair :) I've done small stuff but never had to diagnose or replace any major issues. I reassembled my Addams Family on the weekend after months of being folded up with the head removed. After a couple of games I blew F105. The fuse is for...

So, since I sold my BSD the other day, I guess I won't be needing these. This is a full set of replacement Inkjet decals for Bram Stoker's Dracula. $300 plus shipping if you're not local (probabaly around $20 depending where you are). Shoot me a PM if interested. Adriano

Well, Gerry seems to have gone on vacation this summer, but I just wanted to post and thank him again for the work it takes to bring much appreciated pinball stock to us from across the sea. I had originally intended to set up my 3 container pins within a week or two of getting them. Well... I...

Sorry for the weird FS post. I picked up this player condition BSD not too long ago with a bunch of other pins. Love the game but my recent move has left me with too many projects and little space. BSD is one of the few games that is fully working so I'm debating moving it out for now...

Hi, As the title says... looking for a shadow playfield. I'm okay with one that needs some restoration. I'm considering a TS restore down the road and would love to first have a playfield ready for an easier swap. Let me know what you got? Thanks, Adriano

Looks like I'll be saving some money this time. Monster Bash is scheduled for the next colorDMD!

Hi everyone. I'd like to buy a stern lockbar for my LOTR that does not have the hole and slug for the tournament button. I'm just about to send my trim out for powder coating and would like a standard bar if possible. I know you can buy these, but if anyone has one available, Ill happily...

There seems to be a bit of confusion lately with some of the newer collectors/players on what it means to dial in a game. So, just to offer a little clarification, here's a rundown. "Dialing In" is simply the art properly setting up and adjusting your machine. This can be just as important on a...

Hi Everyone, I have a brand new unopened set of stencils for EBD. I bought it new from classic arcades. This is a full kit to re-do your entire cabinet and head; peel and stick. I bought it to possibly re-do my last EBD but sold the game and do not need them. $150

Hi All! Got myself a cool little JM a couple of weeks ago. It plays great but I'm looking to clean it up a little. I need to locate a set of slingshot plastics and (hopefully) the left in-lane plastic too. All three of these are chipped on my game. If anyone has these parts or is parting out a...
