Hi everyone, i'm Ben and i'm from Brisbane. I am looking at buying a number of pinball machines both new and old classics. I have visited a couple places in the Brisbane area and now searching online for places that sell new and old machines. I thought it would be wise to join a forum like this and try and learn as much as I could before buying any pinball machines. Thanks for having me here.

Thanks for that. The first two machines I would like to buy are:

AC/DC LE (new)
Lethal Weapon 3

Any advice on where I can locate these machines would be greatly appreciated.

There were a few ACDC LE's (NIB) being offered on eBay.

Try Kids Just Wanna Have Fun in W.A

Lethal Weapon 3 - Easy, just about every container that arrives has one.  Watch for wear on cabinet and broken dome light.  Good fun game and should pick up one sub $2200 easily.

Hi there,

I had a LW3 for a while for nostalgic reasons. Got pretty bored with it pretty quickly though - very little variety in game play and pretty easy to get through. The gun shooting gets a bit annoying too. ACDC LE - whole different ball game!

I know Pinball Warhouse near Ikea has a LW3, or did a couple of weeks ago if you want to go and play it.

Thank you the heads up on LW3. I played it a number of times and got bored with it very quickly. Time to look for a different pinball.

Thanks to everyone for the welcome.
