Some of you guys had to be pinball players at some point in your early years, at the drugstore or the corner filling station.

Anyone still play?

The art on some of them is pretty cool if you're into things like that.

I like the older vintage machines but some of the newer pins are cool too.

Just uncrated this one.

Great sound system as well as a high definition screen embedded behind the back glass.

You get full concert videos, if you hit the right targets.

Never did like pinball much.

I was never very good at arcade games.


There was one game in town that I could beat every time though. It took a bunch of quarters from me before that however.

Impressive collection. I never played them enough to get anything but frustrated.

I am attempting to win a free game on my GnR machine, learning curve, lots of distraction.

This bad boy is loud!

I have all my machines set on 'free play' no quarters needed.

Me either, but I threw a schit load of quarters at the early ‘space invaders’ game by Atari until I finally mastered it. Well a schit load of quarters and BEER!

I have always wanted to find a pac man or Mario Bros game.

Also...enough money to build a room for a pool table or ping pong or something.

Kind of a rec room.

That was a fun game.

There was a Tank combat game that was fun too.

A guy I graduated school with drove an over the road truck for his dad. He was probably the most Avid pin ballers I ever knew. He could take control of most any of them.

You can see part of my PacMan sitting to the left of my Ghost Busters pin.

It's fun.

Part of the plot of the 2021 movie, Licorice Pizza, involves pinball machines in a Pinball palace in Studio City, Calif. The '70s era of pinball craze.

I really don't know, these are in a house I use as a office I haven't been to in a year or so.

I got a few others else where.

Just sold 3 of those Guns N Roses machines, I bought 4 when they first came out. Never uncrated any of them until this weekend.
Sold the 3 still crated. Only 500 made, tuff to find one for sale.

You can pretty much get whatever ya want outta one.

Pin collectors are nuts, there is money to be made in the old and the new.
