cheers for those links, unfortunately can't inspect...... really like the look of the game and videos of the game

If anyone knows of one between Port Macquarie to South Sydney even Wollongong would go and check out.

Awesome game Swinksy and one of the few games I miss after moving it..  Make sure the blinders are present and working but otherwise a rock solid game with great music and features..

One of the top games from DE's "Golden Era" 93/94. I recently got JP (thanks Nino) and absolutely love it - most played game at the moment.

Tommy is my all time favourite......... I suppose the avatar may have given that away.

But do make sure that you get one that still has the 'Blinders' - they are a nightmare to locate, and if you you are able to find some, they aren't cheap.

Agree with all the positive comments on this game - would be one of the last games to leave my collection.

Would highly recommend a Pinbal Pro Subwoofer for the game, makes a massive difference.

I have put these propeller mods on my game and think they look great.

The topper looks great on Tommy, but the originals are expensive. These do the trick nicely and are in Queensland - they are hollow balls, so not heavy.

Best of luck with locating one Jady.

thanks for the info guys and the mod links tony - great to know

just need to find a pin. I contacted the guy in Qld on ebay (on the second post) and reluctant without seeing and he didn't want to answer a few questions about quality ????
I found a guy on pinball owners that has one but wants $5.5k - would have to be pristine for those dollars I am guessing.

anyway the search goes on, put lots of feelers out there, just a wait and search and appreciate any heads up if you see any.

$5.5k - tell him to watch the Castle

Contact Nino and Oscar (Pinball Memories) - they might be able to source you one from overseas.

I contacted this guy and he avoided answering questions and when I asked if the pin had all the blinder parts as well as other various questions and all I got back is it doesn't have the blinder control board or the blinders  !@# !@# !@#, which in his ad says that they are there  !@#

he dodged some of my questions and said it was missing the blinders and the circuit board but the ad said it had the blinders so didn't get a good vibe
