Most satisfying - HH as the resto was so much fun.

Favorite though was Firepower - love that game!!

I bought 5 pins this year, for pickup in Allentown, in May 2010. Take a uhaul for 18 hour ride. High Roller Casino, Silverball Mania, Fireball 2, 2 Power Plays & playfield. The last week I bought 2 Strikes & Spares, & a Rolling Stones playfield. Just scored Grand Lizard, Power Play, Gottlieb Circus & Pantera. The last four just ate my last paycheck for the year. It's looking like a great time to be buying pins!

I recently bought Mata Hari (writing on daggar), Silverball Mania, Firepower, Star Trek, maybe others? Sold these ones, & a Car Hop going in January.

i bought 25 pins this year and everyone of them was a challenge/chase in itself.

the best pick up and most interesting purchase because of the trip home was a bugs bunny pinball because i saved it from being parted out by an owner who didnt know what it really was,  and the fact i got chased by highway patrol with it in the trailer when my mate who was driving, was half a sleep doing 130 klms in an 80 zone. he woke up real quick when the red n blue lights came on. i woke up real quick when he decided to go faster.

bugs bunny got home, and we somehow didnt get a ticket. but i saved a machine that was destined to end up not being played again.
after all, its bad luck to kill bugs bunny !

Probably Funhouse for me.  Great game to play.

The missus vote goes for Op Thunder (sorry Greg)...Se loves the fast play and snappy light show.

Easy choice for me.  Just the one pin this year.  Very happy to say it was a Medieval Madness.  Looking forward to doing the PF swap and making it spanky fresh.

Scored a Cactus Canyon this year
but the best part about it was the price, it was the same as you would pay for any other A title
and it came with the guns on the playfield and a manual  #@# #@#
