Title: WTB games list
Post by: Crashramp on January 23, 2016, 07:23:16 PM
Hi Guys,

As per the title I'm looking for a new machine or 2. Some on the list are ones I'd be interested in restoring so I only really need them to be complete. 

I'm interested in any of the following in poor to average condition
- Scared Stiff (Bally)
- Harlem Globetrotters (Bally)
- Nitro Ground Shaker (Bally)
- Count-down (Gottlieb)
- Meteor (Stern)

A couple of others I'd be interested in in any shape from poor condition to restored.
- Black hole (Gottlieb)
- Skateball (Bally)

If anyone has one of these they're thinking about getting rid of or know where I might find one please either post here or PM me. Thanks.

Thanks Rob. I haven't really had much luck with these "wanted to buy" posts before but I'm ready for a new game and thought if I listed a few games I'm interested in then I might have better luck in tracking one of them down. Also interested in other early SS games. Those listed have just been on my WTB radar a little longer.

They all come in the end, its just the time it takes that's the problem. Took me over a decade to finally own a GTB Rocket Ship and even longer for a WMS Rocket ( much harder to find machine).. then one day, they pop up and seem to find you!

Right now im willing to gods to present me with a Midway Flying Saucer gun game and a WMS Space Ship.

Ill get them one day..

Good luck with the search

Thanks Gav. I know you're right, it's just the wait that frustrates sometimes but then again if I could walk into Bunnings and pick a brand new one up anytime I pleased it wouldn't be half the fun.
Just watched a YouTube clip of Midway Flying Saucer, it looks very cool. Good luck with your hunt for that one too.

You will find them Adam. Just need to be patient. But you do need to post threads like this to "shake the tree", as you never know what may fall !

good luck with the search, the only thing I have is a badly worn count down mostly populated playfield for mechanical spares - playfield is toast and so are the plastics.

Hi Jady, thanks I'll keep that in mind if I find a Countdown. I have a pretty decent playfield for this game already so playfield condition on a machine if I find one won't be to much of a concern.

Hey Adam, once the shed is done. You can come over for some games. I have a black hole (nice condition) and a countdown( little rough ) you can play. No need to buy. Also have more ss games.

Shed will finally start this month. After delay delay delay..

Thanks Dan, great of you to offer. I'll look forward to it. The work you've done on your Black hole looks sensational.
