« on: June 19, 2010, 05:20:07 PM »
went to my local bowling alley and the local op has added 2 new pinnies to the line up

dark knight and lord of the rings LE.

thoughts even from a ops point of view is it wise to site a limited edition machine or they aimed for collectors

That's a surprise seeing an LE sited. Maybe that was all that was available at that time ?

I would never do it, but if the pins are monitored and maintained, then enjoy  ^^^

the older pins that were there were damaged

i know his video games are usually flogged out. He attends the perth pinnie meet and has been told that reports say his machines dont work  :lol

they have been smart and got them under camera and staff can see the machines at all times
