I agree. I don't think I've seen a lower (or upper) playfield implemented so well into the theme and not seem a chore. I guess the upper ball lock on BOP... but you don't really 'play' it. I was pretty much all in on this pin the day it launched, but figured, with no limited run, I could afford...

I think that's a great idea ALJO! Send us the link once you post it :D Its a very nice example. I'd be very curious to see what it goes for.

I guess the real question is: would you ever really pay the eBay or Mr Pinball price for anything? I think most people in the hobby know that those two places are filled with what sellers would "like" to get... not necessarily what the games are worth. The Boston guide is usually not too far...

Way to get in there. I'm terrible at reading schematics... especially old ones. Hopefully someone can help.

Yup, I already replied on maaca. Didn't see the post here.... but $3800 is what I sold my old player's copy for and $4600 is what I paid for a much nicer example with rare XR7 (diamondplate) playfield. Anything under $5K for a nice example would be okay I think. Player's copies would be in the...

Neat story! Love Kieth's response. I especially found the pic atop your entry humourous :D

Sorry, don't have any of the ones you want, but I do have a Gottlieb Spin Out for sale. viewtopic.php?f=20&t=2641 Oh, and Welcome to PREV! :D

And a new CPR playfield! :D It's in the garage queue; folded up where Jacks Open was. JO cabinet is coming upstairs for a cleanup and, once I get that playfield done and re-installed, the game is gone. High Speed will then come upstairs and I'll slowly chip away at the swap; amongst my other...

That doesn't help them sell more games

Thanks Reg. Most of what I post anyone could do with a little practice. Other stuff, like airbrushing and mixing custom paints, might require a bit more of an art background and 'feel'... but a lot of it is just cleaning, maintenance and common sense. You definitely need a bit of patience...

Well, I got Centaur all set up last night. I wouldn't sweat the whole ON/QC pin balance issue just yet. As Scott indicated, quite a few nice pins have moved in the other direction over the last few months. Sadly, these old games do not seem to travel very well. I was having some trouble with...

:lol:

Just for fun... here are a few more pics of the game. I 'll likley get around to setting it up tonight. The condition is fantastic!

Next, I sand with a tiny block. Basically a small 1" square piece of wood with some 240 grit sandpaper glued to it. I may alternate with sanding with my thumb too and then finishing with some 400 grit. All of this is done with the tape in place. Once you peel the tape you will see an obvious...

I like to contain my work area and prevent damage to anything around it. In order to do this I usually mask off with some painter's tape. I didn't bother masking the small dimple below these areas since there were so small and I did not anticipate a lot of sanding. You can see them filled...

HOLE IN (ONE HOUR): a quick touch-up guide for early drilled cabs I traded away a very nice Grand Lizard+cash earlier this month for a SUPER nice Centaur! I had seen this game on a recent visit to Montreal. It seems to be that all the nice classic Williams games are in Ontario, while all the...

"taken presidency"? Was there a coup? :D Congrats to all. Happy flipping. You guys get free pizza??? :shock:

Is Peter holding a banana? :shock:

There are plenty coming to ON and QC. I'm sure that, at some point, one or two will become available. Also, there have been several dropouts over the last few weeks as people started getting impatient. I know the wait list is probably long, but if you get on it now, there is always a chance.

Re: FS Cabinet STickers / Backbox, playfield I've always found this funny. It's like games that are routed and hacked overseas are somehow worse than games that are routed and hacked right in the good ol' U.S. of A. :FP: If I have a reimport and I restore it (converting it back to...
