Start counting your cash ..... 7 runs scored in the first inning! Congrats!
I've been playing pinball machines since I was a teenager and have been hooked ever since. My father used to work for a large mall in the early 80's and they had a huge arcade that had about twenty pinballs and at least a hundred arcade machines.This was the "Golden Age Of Arcade"and was a great time in video and pinball history. In 1987 I purchased a Baby Pac-Man pinball machine (it was a video - pinball combo) from a local miniature golf course for $500.00 and played it for several years until I sold it. In 1989, I purchased a Ms.Pac-Man cocktail table ( which I still own today and has a Jr.Pac-Man pcb installed)In 2004...I decided to check out Ebay for a Twilight Zone pinball machine and found one locally and got it for a steal at $2850.00 and trucked it home in my pickup(which saved $300.00 in shipping cost!).My next find ...was a 1981 Bally Centaur,which I found at
www.mrpinball.com for $1500(shipping included).I installed a reproduction playfield in 2006 which I purchased from
www.classicplayfields.com and a new reproduction backglass was also installed.My two other pins include a very rare 1985 Bally Eight Ball Deluxe (only 1300 machines were produced and was the 3rd. and final run and mine is #1243 - it was one of the most popular early 80's pinball)swinging backglass model and a 1992 Williams Fish Tales. The playfield is clearcoated and the fish topper is working.The whole machine is in fantastic condition.My home arcade also includes Galaga (mini),Ms.Pac-Man (mini),Gorf (mini),and a Asteroids Deluxe (cocktail).I recently had coin mechs installed on all my machines and will soon have my Centaur lit by 100% LED bulbs from
www.LEDsPinball.com .Not only are pinball machines are a blast to play ...they continue to increase in value as the years go by.
