Elvira has arrived - at last
« on: April 13, 2009, 09:08:37 AM »
Picked up Elvira And The Party Monsters yesterday and set her up alongside Scared Stiff last night. The four, sorry the two of them look great together. Got it from an operator who bought it new in 1989. In pretty good condition for a site game.

Cheers

You have done what I wish to do!  I have Elvira & the Party Monsters and am saving my pennys for a trip to Mark C (next year at this rate) for a SS.

Well done.  EPM is a great game I rekon, both ramp shots are cool and love it when the part monsters dance! #*#

Hi Dean,

If you like EATPM you will love Scared Stiff, so much you can put back into SS like skull pile LED`s, dancing boogiemen and modify the beast head eyes.

Cheers Graeme

Congrats Graeme - I've often thought about "pairing" up the Elviras. Haven't really played EATPM. I'd be interested to hear your critique after you have given her a hammering.
Coincidentally, my SS is parked alongside CFTBL too.
Cheers

Thanks Max - Wanted the pair together ever since I got SS in 2005. Not had much of a chance to play her over the weekend. Where abouts in WA are you ? if you are in the Perth area feel free to come over and try her out.

Cheers
Graeme

Like your choice of machines, EATPM is one that I let go and have regreated it ever since she was in great condition and I will be very lucky to find another in such good nic.

Wow, congrats to both of you guys on your Elvira pins. I played Scared Stiff at Albury Intencity a couple of weekends ago and the machine was in badly need of a tune up.

Also, love it when you get a theme going with a set of machines.   ^^^

Cheers!
Adam.
