Title: My modest collection
Post by: elkor-alish on March 20, 2009, 12:37:50 PM

Just thought I'd put up a few pics of my collection at the moment.
I did have a Star Trek NG and an old EM called Paddock but the EM's scare me a bit so I moved it on.
Getaway is still the Family fav but the TotAN gets the most play at the moment.
All my machines came from the US except for the Getaway, and none of the US ones would be working if it wasn't for chillies generous help.

The Diner is curently in the Maxwiz shop getting a full resto.

Now that's what I call "Variety".

Champion Pub is a game that I find very addictive.

Thanks for sharing !

Awsome stuff.  A collection to envy.

I've only just taken possession of a Getaway and love it!

I wouldn't exactly call that a modest collection (when I saw modest I was expecting two or three pins). You have a very nice line-up there, definitely a few I wouldn't mind owning.

Totally agree Andrew,

Modest - no way - top line pins there.

Not too sure after reading your posts - do you still have the Willaims Paddock?

I reckon he has moved it on. "I did have a Star Trek NG and an old EM called Paddock but the EM's scare me a bit so I moved it on." That's how I read it. So older photos on show for that one.

Wow! What a great line up elkor-alish!

Be interested if you would post your thoughts on Time Machine. I have a bit of a DE interest, and would be keen to hear a review from an owner of their first effort.

I guess I just thought everyone else had a shed full or something.
Most of the guys I know, that have Pins, have more than I do.

Paddock was sold last weekend. Was a very nice old EM in excellent condition. Guy got a real good deal.

The Time Machine is not really a difficult machine to play but it has a very similar light show to Funhouse that is very cool.
The machine has a chime box that kicks in when you go back to the 50's and the display also scrolls to simulate score reels.
As you tavel in time the music changes which gives you the feel of the time traveling.
Art work is also very cool with many little easter eggs and with a mirrored back glass the machine looks very nice in the collection.
Parts are not the easiest to come by though, so if you see any ramps etc. jump on them.
If you're interested in more let me know.

Wow i like the idea of the chime box for gong back in time what a great touch
