Hi From Dave
« on: June 07, 2009, 09:27:54 PM »
Hi all, been lurking here for a week and thought I should introduce myself.  $.$
Hoping to purchase my first pin soon and re live my youth. I Remember mainly
playing and enjoying Gott pins such as Solar Ride, Joker Poker and Charlies Angels.
Then later Williams machines FirePower and Black Knight. A lot of others, but these ones
were my favs. Hoping to get some guidance on my first purchase. Im an Industrial Sparkie,
and think an EM machine might be a good start for me. Really enjoying reading this forum,
and hope to be able to contribute at some stage.
Cheers
Dave

Welcome, Dave, glad you could join us.

I reckon you could score a Solar Ride or a Joker Poker at a reasonable price if you look around. I imagine a Charlies Angels will fetch a bit more.

If you need guidance on repairs or restoration you will find plenty of assistance on here.

Hi Dave,

Welcome to AP, great to have you on board.

Get a Gottlieb EM from the 1970s - a single player wedge head would be a great first game!

Hi ajlaird

Hope you are right, I would really like a Joker Poker (love drop downs).
Thanks all for the replies.

Cheers
Dave

 $.$ Dave and  %)% to AP !

Joker Poker would be a great game to own - but hard to locate for a reasonable price. Solar ride does appear on eBay from time to time. Good luck with your search - and ask as many questions as you need to - and remember - It never stops at one Pinball !

Joker Poker and Charlies Angels seem to go for crazy money these days. Solar Ride and Count Down pop up on eBay a fair bit and are usually well priced.
