I still love Popeye and all the rest, and still think they leave alot of later model Sterns for dead, and at a third of the price. They are very under-rated alot of these titles.  All the ones I mentioned I have owned for years n like them alot.
 Most people I know who purchased a Spiderman got bored of it quickly and sold it, incl a few fellow QLDérs.

The great thing at the moment is that there are alot of great games out there to play n test out which is half the fun, espescially for those who are cashed up. Play lots n lots of different stuff cause you just never know what machine can surprise you alot.

Hi Peter
After some serious decective work I managed to find a Paragon  $#$ . It's been number 1 on my wish list for ever so I'm so glad I didn't just rush into a new pin on a whim. Let that be a lesson to all the people who are in the same boat patience pays.
I don't want to say too much at this stage as I haven't recieved it as yet but hopefully late next week or early the following it will arive and I will post some pics. Cheers
Tim

The monkey glands must well and truly be working.
Ok someone find a Spidey and I will find a POOPEYE or simmilar like plank from the cavefiles and we will trade.
 :lol
Nice pickup on your Paragon btw.

PeterI'ts a bit of a long storey and I don't want to go right into it but the bottom line to my understanding is that there was a problem with the sound board and the seller didn't want to let the machine go without it being 100% and pulled out of the sale. These things happen I guess.
Anyway I think I have a new machine arriving tonight will let everyone know when it's here and post some pics ^^^
