Only a month late !
The container arrived yesterday, but I have not had time to unpack everything and post pictures. It was picked up from the wharf and delivered the next day. That's what I call service ! Again, I used the same crew to unload the container for me. Took 45 minutes for 36 games with the three of us. No dramas.
Here is the truck, with the ramp, trolleys etc. Takes 5 minutes to setup and I have the factory floor cleared in the section I want most of the games ;

They are removed one by one. There's a nice Elvis (sold) *%*

Bird's eye view of the ramp. My unloads are organized to be as quick as possible.

New pin day x 36! Very nice. Scared Stiff is sure popular with all three spoken for. Excellent game, I'm looking forward to the resto threads on that one I particularly.

Yes mate - I'd HATE to load a container of pins. Would be harder than unloading !
Thanks for the kind words guys ^^^
I have a few PMs to respond to, and emails. I'm keeping track and I'll get back to everyone once I've had some downtime. Each machine will be reviewed and I'll respond ASAP. Please just be patient. There's a lot of other stuff going on #@#

I just imported 40 machines for our group of collectors and 50 more next week.
Good job ^^^ I know it is difficult to make everybody happy.
-
I'm slowly unpacking each game and I'll start contacting members that reserved and have expressed interest in the games. I will reply to all PMs on Wednesday, in order of receiving them. There's just a LOT happening at APR, and I will be making some announcements this week.
Please be patient - I'm not ignoring PMs. I will post pictures tonight.

Only 12 games unpacked at this stage as we are really busy with restoration work and paperwork during hours. I unpack at night, then take the photos and create reports etc on each game during the day. The reserved games are obviously first machines looked at. Again, I will start to reply to PMs tomorrow night.
First games unpacked were CFTBL and Shadow. VERY pleased with both.

Then the Scared Stiffs. One has the "glow in the dark" bones, flippers and inlanes. That game is mine %$%
(http://australianpinballrestorations.com.au/pictures/misc/Containers/Unpacked%20002.JPG)
Addams Family. Both already sold and both will be NIB Restorations
(http://australianpinballrestorations.com.au/pictures/misc/Containers/Unpacked%20003.JPG)
Twilight Zone. Probably the best "container" TZ I've seen in a while.
(http://australianpinballrestorations.com.au/pictures/misc/Containers/Unpacked%20004.JPG)
Sopranos - both in good shape. One is missing an assembly and a lock down bar. Still happy with them.
(http://australianpinballrestorations.com.au/pictures/misc/Containers/Unpacked%20005.JPG)
A Maverick - and this is easily the best Maverick I've seen straight off a container. This could go on some showroom floors "as is". Very happy !
The Starship Troopers is selected as a NIB - EVERYTHING is going on this game !
