    Heighway Pinball Production Update

    Heighway had asked me for some leads for distributors months ago and I put him in touch with Guylaine. Best I understand they talked it over but as he is a new company they took a pass for now. Kind of a bummer for us, with how convenient they are to deal with for us locals, and Nitro out in BC...

    FS "Not Mine" Pinball Machines For Sale

    Scott, I'm not sure but you might have taken what I wrote directed at you. I have no idea if you've gotten container pins, I was speaking generally as an example of someone making money off pins they don't actually own. I was thinking specifically of those Italian pins that guy used to arrange...

    FS "Not Mine" Pinball Machines For Sale

    So organizing a container and collecting money on pins that have not arrived in the country is bad? Dunno, of all the things to get upset about in my day to day life, someone making a buck ain't one of them. The market will decide what these machines are worth, they'll find their price point...

    FS "Not Mine" Pinball Machines For Sale

    Those games are going to find their market price eventually. The guy will succeed. So if it was a game I was interested I wouldn't let the back story stop me (unless they were stolen or something).

    This "TIMESHOCK!" game looks AMAZING!!

    Is there a reason this can't be built for real life? Seems like a "real" pinball design, not like a Star Wars one or something.

    SkitB's - Experts of Dangerous Pinball

    Someone on pinside in 2 minutes did a mockup of the art in more animated poses, and even this rough, it painfully shows how stiff the art is by comparison. So, the theme itself is debatable, but the quality of the art is really flat. I'm guessing like Predator they just had their bud do it...

    SkitB's - Experts of Dangerous Pinball

    Obviously any pinball can be better than the theme, as there are a lot of shitty movies that are top pins. I suspect the toys may be innovative. As a business enterprise, I am still highly concerned about Skit-b being a 1-man operation. Kevin needs to hand over a lot of the biz to people who...

    SkitB's - Experts of Dangerous Pinball

    The thing that concerns me most of the Pred build, is now that JJP is assembling game 2, they are literally going to put a rag-tag team together to bang machines out, because they aren't building towards a larger goal. It's just temporary to get Pred out the door, no factory or systems getting...

    Will TAF ever be remade?

    We don't know how low Planetary is willing to go on remake pricing. He's even talked about remaking system 11 games. If MMR basically pays for the entire r&d of their new platform, they may very well sell remakes for far cheaper down the road, what the market will be willing to pay anyways...

    "Foggy" ACDC was only on the LEs, the premiums don't have that problem other than normal dirt/wear that can be wiped away.

    New to pinball, looking for help

    Hi Fleach, welcome. The more you get introduced to the local pinball community, the easier it is to find pins. There really aren't that many of us, and most everyone is tight on space so everyone is flipping pins all the time. You are also welcome to check out the Toronto Pinball League...

    VONNIE D PINBALL announces PINBALL GREMLINS

    Dunno if that Kickstarter is going to help or hurt. Right now they've sold 1 machine and we can all see that.

    VONNIE D PINBALL announces PINBALL GREMLINS

    Of all the boutiques, I have to give it to Spooky that they at least create their games and THEN take orders. They seem the best organized, and they are still struggling to produce machines in any sort of quantity.

    Thank you Luch!!

    Congrats, finally sold your x-men topper.

    VONNIE D PINBALL announces PINBALL GREMLINS

    1 machine has fresh coat of wax, the other doesn't, 1 was waxed today, the other waxed last week. All those machines will play different and no way to tell the difference by the software.

    Python's Pinball Circus...into production!

    Everyone I've ever read that played it at PHOF had their fill after a couple of games. Times are different from when it was originally designed though. The market would now be for collectors, and there are probably 100 people that would buy it just for rarity. They may not even plan to make a ton.
