The luxury of having a building to set up my collection has allowed me to extend it.

My collection consists of ex routed games from Dad's Operating days - Sky Jump, Spirit of 76, KISS and Paragon. These are the cornerstones. Other games I've been chasing are games I remembered on operation - Smart Set, Honey, Captain Fantastic, Fireball, Nip It and Winner. I'm keeping CP, Fireball, Nip It and Winner as they are fantastic machines.

My favorite players are the Paragon (above), Fathom (took 10 years to locate), Medusa, Flash Gordon, Embryon, Vector, Viking, Haunted House, Spirit, Black Hole, Flight 2000, Freefall and CV..

Nothing has really gone over the year, as I keep building the collection up, and I have a place to house them. They just need to be restored !!

I'm still chasing "Rocket Ship" (but I bevel that is now sorted), "Olympic Hockey", "Zodiac" and possibly "Scared Stiff".

I could cull 5-6 if I had to, but I would never get rid of the "cornerstone" games - Sky Jump, Spirit of 76, KISS and Paragon
