The wheels seemed to have fallen off the wagon.

The best person to speak to regarding all things Expo is Micheal Shalhoub. http://www.pinballcompendium.com/

I was at the last Expo at Petersham Town Hall in 2009, I was there both days and so many people came. I thought this was going to happen every year but it seams to have been forgotten. I am hanging out for another Pin Expo...

You are right, it was that long ago!

Hmmm, as there have been no announcements to date I guess it is not happening in May!!

It's a shame as I thought the first one was overall pretty successful, and with the amount of people attending the return would have been OK. Maybe the auction didn't do well enough to cover any shortfall in revenue?

And realistically the Australian Pinball Museum is probably years away. Haven't heard any updates for a while on that front, either?
