sleazius Posted 26August, 2017 Report Share Posted 26August, 2017 Nice pins!You know how you feel when someone posts a photo of the particular type of p-car that gets you going? The dry mouth, the hunger, the gotta have it now? Yeah, that's me with pinball, all of it. I honestly have a serious problem. Porsche is a far cheaper affliction.I've removed myself from the local scenes cause I just can't stop buying the bloody things. It's like Pokemon at this point.Head over to the Aussie Arcade forum if you want to see how deep the rabbit hole goes.@WOKA is another man bitten by the pinball and arcade bug on this forum, I'm sure he's got a photo or two lying around. I'd link some of mine but they're all on photobucket which has recently gone pay to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WOKA Posted 27August, 2017 Report Share Posted 27August, 2017 Ha.. Slezius, you have one of the best collections in the country.!Good to see @9er.! A Tommy with its original topper is a rare thing indeed.!Pinball IS gaming, every ball is wild and every game is different. There are leagues and championships all over Australia and the world - the leagues and competition are growing all the time, the resurgence is huge. I've got a few here at my 'PFA browsing' location, I've got other's stashed away and a few on site earning me a few rubles.. I can't keep them all at the new house unfortunately. Got another one arriving tomorrow - one I've been looking for for quite a few years - Attack From Mars.Not pinball related, but this is a grail Now if anyone has any old machines collecting dust in their garages, please let me know, no matter the logistics involved.!

keg_guts Posted 27August, 2017 Report Share Posted 27August, 2017 Only the one, but had to sell my 'Royal Guard' when we downsized, shed a few tears...Was not sure a pinnie in an apartment would go down well with the neighbours.But do like the old Gottliebs.

sleazius Posted 27August, 2017 Report Share Posted 27August, 2017 (edited) I just grabbed a STLE and I've got SWLE coming, and that's with me staying away from pinball @WOKA Grats on the AFM! I need to track down another at some point. Edited 27August, 2017 by sleazius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joombo Posted 27August, 2019 Report Share Posted 27August, 2019 Not sure.I think it's more about online games. My fav are netent video slots where I can get some cash while playing. Plus they give bonuses for new players! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never want to sell anything, but pins are huge - hence the need for buckets of space, and that can put pressure on you if you want to buy a new toy. Our homes often end up overflowing with the bloody things - I've got 8 garages and a 280sqm barn, and only two cars are parked in either, guess what takes up the rest of the space?

Depends if you want an original board set or an emulated one. Here is a brand new 60 in 1 that has gyruss on it. https://www.amdcoinop.com/cocktail-table .... $1600, and AMD are reputable, a lot of other places aren't.
