Can't help but notice the other similar era Bally's in the background of a lot of your pictures Steve. If you feel like it and if you get the chance I'd love to see some pics of the others in your line up as well. It looks like a fantastic collection you have there.
Thanks. Yes, without doubt my favourite era is simply what I grew up as a very young teenager through to my early 20's. And this is the period from about the mid 70's to the early 80's. And I think there would be a consensus that it was a very good and productive period for Bally with all the titles they were coming out with. I still have a soft spot though for Gottlieb EMs, and have one of those which I never get bored of playing and really enjoy - Buccaneer. Was very fortunate to be able to source one from Nino, who nicely restored it (and I am currently continuing with that in doing a cab respray).
The others in the lineup I have been fortunate to land, and these include Fathom, Viking, Freedom, Star Trek, Embryon, Skateball, and Delta Queen. Some of these are for sentimental value back to my youth, and others are just great fun to play.
