This is HUGE news

not only for Australian hobbyists however for the wider pinball community

I bought from pinball rescue in the first incarnation and have to say you you would be hard pressed other than present company to find a nicer bunch of people with a passion for restoring classic games

Looks like playfield plastics and decals to start....

Let's hope they also end up doing backglasses. There is a market for Gottlieb (which will be their market) 1970s backglasses for sure.

Dean - looks like your search for decals has come to an end  *%*

Peter,

I don't like your chances there but you never know. Would say there would be licensing issues - I emailed Lee this morning and asked if he could send some more info so we could post here. Would say their market would be Gottlieb 1950 - 80 at the moment.

BTW Peter....sending this listening to KISS Alive III - (we need a little 'headbanger' icon/face here please Mods)  :lol

This is seriously good news. I used to buy stuff from them.
These guys did such HQ work, only to be stepped upon by some ogre . . . .
Thanks heaps for the announcement. I have re-added Pinball rescue to my favourites.

Prayers and thanks Pinball God. This is excellent. I have a few pinballs that need rescueing big time.

I hope they make a good go of it this time around, maybe they have Gottlieb or Pinball resource approvals in place.
Maybe they could hook into CPR and run plastic sets off for them.
