We all have our own passionate views. If I upset you CC or Pinsanity I apologise. Let's leave it at that and keep the thread positive and about pinball.
Other topics are welcome in other threads and we will keep those topics there.

Tomorrow my son turns 5 years old. It will be a proud day for this dad.
We are going down to TimeZone to play a lot of the games and have some fun, espescially the dodgem cars and all the pinnys. Should be a good day.

I hope people who are doing unboxings of new Sterns like TWD keep sharing those special days because it is magical to be a part of it and to see the photos and hear the stories on this great forum.

Stern have 1000 employees. Whether you agree or disagree with their business model, they are still there after all these years. Let someone come and challenge them with the ultimate business model.
If you don't remember the 70s then you were on drugs.
If you remember playing pinball in the 70s you were having a good time.
If you don't remember anything,  then read about it here,

If anyone can make the link appear better so the YouTube video appears directly on the post I would appreciate it.
Using a I.phone whilst driving doesn't make posting the video easy. Thanks in advance.

Also,   www.amdcoinop.com

Worth a look. Site has some great links

Merry Xmas Stern and AMD and all the people (well over 50 people and close to 100 by late Feb) who have bought
The Walking Dead pinball for themselves as a great chrissy present.

Who would have thought a few years ago that zombies would have been one of the worlds most successful TV shows and then such a popular pinball !
That whole thing came right out of left field for sure. It's great Stern was switched on enough to listen to its customer base. Hope that continues this next few years.

Also a big thankyou to the people who have sent me photos and stories of their TWD pinnys. Very cool to see them in collections. This fan was excited to see people's kids playing them and even some ladies enjoying the zombie theme.
The ladies seem to enjoy this theme more than any before it which is very surprising.

On the news tonight, the Australian dollar has traded the lowest against the USA dollar for a five and a half year basis.

Hopefully the pricing doesn't rise in 2015. Maybe Stern USA will continue to work with our Aussie dealers n keep the price down. I don't mind the $7100 price tag for a brand new Pro but others are wary.
Hope pricing stays where it is. Hope heaps more TWDead pinnys keep coming in. Anything to put pinball on the modern day map for growth.

What about going to a model shop and finding a few life like soldiers with sniper rifles to stand at the top of the tower ?

Has anyone else got any other The Walking Dead mods to place on this thread please ?  !@#

The above Tower Mod was made by a company who Is doing mods on their 3D printer.
Gary Stern said yes and is stocking it.
Many more to come.
Modding games is adding your personality to your own game so why not. Not too expensive either.

2015 will be the year of the Mods.
Why not. Extra fun is always a good thing.
