Hi Tony, Good for you! I'm not real big on the late Gottliebs myself other than the wide bodies such as Haunted House and Black Hole. Go for the '60s...
Going to Pinball expo today (wed). i should be getting a 1966 gottlieb Hurdy Gurdy (AAB of central park) at expo. guy is from WI and the game was $400 (ouch),...
Howdy, I didn't even pretend it was for Christmas, I just opened it and drooled over the awesome collection of EM's in this year's calendar. I may seem wierd,...

Hi Dan, I'm probably going to be trashed for this but I have a Stars that is next on my project list. The MPU light just sits there glowing. I may be in the...
Howdy, No point in waiting until the last minute. hahaha! If anyone would like to meet at the Expo I propose we meet at 5:00pm in Maxie's Bar & Grill. I do...
... Yea, Mr.Marco is crossing over to the expensive side of pinball. Can't dumpster dive for working MPU boards and displays. Get ready to pull out that...
Hey All, I did an oopse, I put down that I parted Stars, I parted out Hot Hand, some of the parts went to fix Stars up... So if you need parts for Stern Hot...
JP, So far it's been cheap, but the pin still isn't working! :-o Fortunately them made a ton of boards that will work on this pin. I must admit, it is a bit...
Speaking of not very expensive, I would like to sell a pretty nice gottlibe 300, and decent flip flop or trade for nice dealers choice. Anybody near Charlotte,...
John, 300 seems to be a popular title lately. If you don't sell it here, I know there's some interest on RGP. Lotsa collectors are heading off to Expo. It...
I got a QD as part of a lot of 9 machines I bought that included a NOS QD playfield! I've just finished shopping the playfield (the old one... I want to clear...

Howdy, Looking closer at the photos, it appears the front part of the cabinet may be removable. What do you guys think? Thanks, MrMarco ... was ... paying ......
It looks a little rough but that's probably typical for that price. As long as everything is there I don't think that's a bad deal. It took me a few years to...
Hi Steve, Thank you very much for the input! I am real excited about picking up my first gun game. At least there isn't any playfield restoration. hahaha! ...
rifle games are awsome to have in a game room, they can get boaring, but if you make different ways to shoot at the targets it makes it interesting. I paid...

Welcome to the grouup, Steve...A lot of EM pinball knowledge is available on this site!...We have every level from beginner to pro, with most of us someplace...
Danny, IMHO, clear coating should be reserved for playfields that have gone thropugh a major restoration. Pins that receive the amount of play and maintenance...
In general I agree with you. In this case the NOS playfield is nearly perfect except that the inserts are slightly concave. Clearcoating will help solve that...
