LETS SEE YOUR BEST PINBALL MACHINE
« on: January 11, 2010, 10:44:00 PM »
Sometimes a photo says a thousand words.
I reckon it would be great for members to take A PHOTO or two of your BEST PINBALL MACHINE.  Just pick one machine and take a quick photo.

Your BEST can be your favourite this week, or the Pinball you really clasify as your BEST cause its the most expensive or just got that sentimental edge.

Can u take a photo to share and add a quick one or two liner of why u think it is your BEST.

* IF U HAD TO SHOW OFF ONE OF YA MACHINES, WHICH ONE WILL IT BE ?  !@#  !@#  !@#  LETS SEE SOME NICE PHOTOS AND MACHINES !  ^^^  ^^^  ^^^

This is my finest hour - Gottlieb "Jacks Open". I restored this over 4 years (I think). No expense spared - full repaint etc.. I adored this machine, but I was made an offer I could not refuse, so I let it go. I will be working towards quite a few EM restores at this level soon.

Here is mine. Gorgar with the new glass would be my favourite at the moment but the others are close tie for second.

I like em equally for different reasons. I did have the "RB disease" awhile back and turned-over a pin regularly, but just cant part with these players.
