When it is home ( Wednesday ) I will set up the IKEA designed crate underneath and take some better shots, there is even LED's under the cabinet to highlight this feature!
Unfortunately the mini DMD shat itself so Joe has another on the way soon.
Being able to set up an EM/retro style pinball with all the benefits of the very latest games technology is amazing.
I was concerned about not having real bells, manual ball lift etc. etc. I need not to have worried. This is in a class of its own.
This beast is firkin cool as. I would rather not post a video as it will spoil all the fantastic call outs and sounds for someone else who has or considering ordering one. You got to experience all this first hand. It is very expensive and 3 pins had to go to help fund ( and the room ) But soooooooooooo AWESOME.
All welcome for a bash if needed. GAP I will set you up a still since you are busted at the mo!
You won't be disappointed.

p.s. My shit eating grin is still on my dial. Also waiting to hear what the next WHIZBANG/STERN game is.

Great stuff Oldskool.  Please take plenty of videos and photos for us.

I reckon a few more may pull the trigger after your reviews!

I'm surprised that you haven't noticed that the legs they sent you rusted while being shipped here! ^&(

I saw it being played on twitch.tv/dead_flip.  Those guys loved it.  It does make a refreshing change.


...I'm guessing you won't be on this forum for as much.  I can see some late nights over then next few week trying to 'pop' and 'clock' game.

PS
Was is just my group of youngsters that used the terms 'pop' and 'clock'?  Current terminology is 'knock' and 'roll'.

Last picture promise
I was gonna put her next to my beloved Surf Champ that Nino restored for me. Decided to mix it up a little.
My theme is now weird, surf and redneck! who would have thunk! In-between RBION and BBH.

looks beautiful Andy, are the lights in the under cabinet standard or a addition by you - either way finishers it off.
