    hmmm. NIB "non licensed theme". might turn into a mission impossible. If they literally won't accept anything you are offering, and there is nothing on the horizon, then possibly I suggest you just make a cash donation to the hospital, or if they have a separate entertainment fund or something...

    Adam, any frustration felt now will melt away when we see some photos of that pin with kids around it. Just have to soldier on!

    Well, the issue with the used games is for real, so you may as well keep fundraising until there's a NIB collected. Then you offer what's available then. If it's next year, that could be several different new titles.

    Heighway has that Full Throttle coming, but there's bikini girl in it. They probably can't watch Disney movies because the villains are all prejudicial in some way. Everything else that's known to be coming won't work. Man, what a tough deal.

    Ben Affleck will play Batman in 'Man of Steel' sequel

    there was rumours of an older batman.... dunno if Affleck is really "older", at least not in the sense that he feels middle-aged even though he's in his 40s.

    omg. If WOZ fails, what the heck do these kids play with there? Like, in general? no wonder they need a pinball, they must be dying of boredom.

    One idea for WOZ.... but this will only work next year after more fundraising and WOZ production has put ones available in general supply. JJP is approached (possibly through Starburst) to see if a discounted WOZ can be acquired for donation to Sick Kids. You work with your contacts at Sick...

    How far are you from the "new" goal? This could take a while longer. There will probably be a couple more releases by the time the new goal is reached. Star Trek is next, if they're passing on the ones I mentioned for violence, I'm guessing Trek will have that same intensity. WOZ would...

    So many of the latest Sterns are superheroes and movies. they are top licenses, surprised they don't want them. Transformers, Avengers, Xmen, should be popular with kids. the old guy rock bands, notsomuch :-).

    Who has a Hard/Race Drivin' machine?

    old vids never seem to be as good as you remember. That one was a big deal, I remember it well, have not seen it in 20 years, probably best.

    Next ColorDMD Batch available...

    I notice their commas in the scores has been improved in their upscale videos. Before they used to look like dots, which made the scores look bad. Anyone have video of more tspp with this?

    It's my "Piniversary"!

    Mike is referring to this nightmare. Jooky was over this week, he was dumbfounded how I got any of the pins into the basement. My hope with the new place is for a separate basement entrance with walk-out. Plus that will allow me more freedom with visitors when they don't have to walk through...

    It's my "Piniversary"!

    Exactly 1 year ago I started down this pinball road. I had played a lot when younger, but 20 years passed. I completely missed the 90s golden era, never even played TAF until this year. But I always had fond memories of Taxi and always dreamed of owning one. Then on my ipad I picked up Pinball...

    The Hobbit Full Playfield Posted by JJP

    I like what I see but I would never pre-pay for a JJP game. I'll just wait for standards to be available.

    Pinball Value Checker?

    Jim, I'd take advantage of our forum here and ask opinions on any games that catch your eye. Most lists I've seen aren't very accurate, and there is so many things that can affect the price. Plus we've in Canada, and everything is more expensive. Also, a good thing to do is check the For...

    Smoke in the cabinet is bad, right?

    My varistor has been replaced and Tron is back. When testing, the game actually ran with it removed completely. Obviously for safety reasons we put a new one back in so it could do the same job again if needed. It had to be soldered in, just an fyi for anyone dealing with this down the road.

    Heighyway Pinball brings on new designer...

    Well, and the way to look at it, we'll get one traditional pinball game from Dennis, and then the experiment from P3. So it's a definite win-win.

    Heighyway Pinball brings on new designer...

    Wonder what Dennis' relationship with P3 is? Seems odd that he'd be working for 2 separate companies on 2 separate games simultaneously. If I had to guess, based on various things I've read/seen, P3 has no money, so he might not be salaried there. Heighway seems better financed. Could be that...
