Thanks Guys. That's the shop at my work Ben. We have a world class finishing facility... which, I am very happy to use when needed :D I do all the touch-ups at home and bring the playfields there so I can use the equipment. I just pay for materials... Which isn't cheap. The only hassle is that...

As someone who loves restoring pins... or even giving them a really good and thorough shop (which is what this sounds like) I can honestly state that there is no (or at least very little) profit in it. So, finding someone to do this kind of work can be problematic. You need to locate someone...

Hey Ben, Glad Johnny went to a good home... and I'm happy the pin-count in Timmins is slowly increasing ;) Looking forward to following along.

Hey Ron, I was reading that Pinside thread earlier. You really went all the way :) I just got my C37 back together this weekend and can feel your pain to some degree. It now has about 3-4 buys that it never had before I restored it :FP: I've learned the hard way that, especially when it...

Or it was just the game he was passionate about. I don't think the idea of the game "needing" anything enters into it. After all, he's doing it for himself, not the rest of us. If DM owners find it cool or benefit, all the better.

John announced AIW a while back, although he has not started taking any orders. I guess he wanted to stake his claim after others were jumping on his zombie bandwagon.. and releasing a 3rd game before your first has even seen the light of day would likely get him a lot of negative response. I'm...

Well done James. We saw the game at expo and looking forward to trying it at Mike's place a little more. Just wondering how long an endeavour like this takes and how much (if any) of the existing programming can be accessed and used? Are you planning to tackle any other games in future? I know...

Not sure if it was mentioned here, but one of the things that JPOP discussed in his seminar was that they were already moving (for the second time) into a new facility. The current idustrial unit was rammed when I visited earlier this year. I understand he has acquired a larger unit in the same...

Re: Free Countdown Cabinet Haha. Pardon me :oops:

This is the only source I know of. These are reproductions. http://www.pinballcenter.eu/catalog/fli ... ge=english

Re: Free Countdown Cabinet Still holding out for a whole Countdown ;) But I might be into this cabinet for a little project. PM sent.

Mike Hanley knows JPOP as much as anyone and "the word" during our chat is that john wants to have his Magic Girl prototypes done by the end of the year. I think he's got 3 protos? I could be wrong. Development on RAZA should be greatly reduced now that his new platform is largely complete...

Nice Doug. I'd pay money to learn how to use one of those gadgets!

I don't understand. You have an LE booked. The standard is selling for the same amount, so you're cancelling the LE??? Have they changed the pricing... or are you just cancelling getting a MMR completely? Getting pretty sick of this whole LE BS to be honest.

Yeah, Time machine was pretty cool. Mike, meant to say SST

We got to play a lot of games that I normally wouldn't. Let's see.. Some additional sleepers. Gottlieb gladiators was a lot of fun I enjoyed Dirty Harry too, Firepower 2, STT wasn't bad. I had nev really played GNR, but I had an awesome game on that pin and it raised a few eyebrows. I'm sure...

Re: OCTOBER LIST I think Warlock's point of view (and mine) is that this is definitely not a "good thing". If you can just reproduce a 15 year old game and affect market value overnight, what will future buyers of other games have on their minds? That being said, $8K for a game that regularly...

I agree. I am done with startups and pinball entrepreneurs. For a theme like this, I want it done by someone who can deliver... within a year (not five). I also want it done by someone who isn't going to set an unreasonably low production run and expect everyone to clamour over each other and...

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...
