Hankin FJ Holden pinball for sale in Coolangatta QLD
« on: May 08, 2009, 12:08:12 PM »
I was in Coolangatta last weekend with my family and spotted a Hankin FJ Holden pin for sale in the Big Boys Toys collectable shop in the main shopping part of Coolangatta.

They are asking $3,500 for it, its in good condition and was turned off so I never had a game.

Just thought I'd post it here in case anyone is chasing a true classic aussie pin.

That game has been for sale for like 3 or 4 years  :lol

All of the Hankin games are in excellent condition.....this game is so  ((( ((( to play.

Still if you owned a FJ would look cool in the garage

They had 3 or 4 games from the same vintage a few years ago....can't remember the titles (except for the FJ) but they were all pricey.

Good luck to them

Apparently they are owned by an northern nsw ex-operator/collector who has 80 or so pins, and he just sells off the odd pinball on consignment at that shop. Everytime I have visited this shop he has different titles?

With the Wintersun festival fast approaching maybe a hot rod/classic car fan might purchase this pin? !@#

havent seen one of these for a while , i am told at car auctions they go for way more than that
i had a guy ring for one and say he missed one at a car auction for TEN grand 

I have played this and to me  its very boring  but i guess for a FJ nut  they would just want one

Great result TEN grand for a FJ pin.

He will probably get $3,500 for his pin with the Wintersun later this month

Whats the Wintersun you ask?? see this web site

About 10 years ago those Hankin pins were everywhere and real cheap also.

Have really dried up in that time, suppose like all pins  @.@

I'm not that familiar with Hankins, did they use imported GTB hardware or was it all made in Aus?
