Timezone Broadway : Williams Junk Yard
« on: May 31, 2012, 05:20:57 PM »
Went to Broadway in Sydney today to see if eney new pinball machines where at Timezone.
But no, they still had Junk Yard and The Simpsons.
Junkyard played very good but there was a cheap fix job done on the left plastic ball ramp.
The ball would come down the ramp and on to the slingshot plastic, this was broken and sometimes the ball got stuck.

Oh! and I was told by the the head honcho at Timezone you can't take photos in the shop or in the building  $$(  
And I said I only wanted to take a pick of the machine,, and he said you have to get permission in writing,,  !@#  What The !!
He told me After I took this pick..

Guessing the issue is young children and concerns about photos. Great to see they have a couple of games anyway.

Im in sydney this weekend and wondered if the Simpsons and Junkyard are still sighted here and if so, in what condition? Also anyone know if there's a x-men within 10min drive of the CBD?

Mate I reckon Newtown would be your best bet.  Not far out of the city at all, just try to avoid peak hour through King Street.

Thanks Wotto,

That's a much appreciated offer but I'm flying home Sunday morning and only have limited free time while I'm in town so have to decline...this time anyway.

 Cheers

I really would not waist you're money at Timezone, Haven't been there since I did this thread.
The games are in such poor condition, Timezone cares more for the video games rather than pins.

Went to the courthouse today. Great pub and great list of games. I'll post some pics next week but have to say the  X-men LE I played there is an awsome game.
