Just curious, how many more pinball folks are there here? I've seen much talk about video cabs, almost none about pins.

Does anyone have a pitch + bat?

Don't have a pitch and bat, but I do have a South Park pin I enjoy from time to time. I'd love to pick up a Cirqus Voltaire though, I just love that pin!!

I love southpark, especially the mr hanky multiball.

If i was able to get another pinball it would be black hole, its a truely stunning machine. From the spinning artwork on the backbox to the inverted playfield under the main playfield. Theres some tables out there that i know i will love without ever playing on them. Black hole is one of them.

The backglass has a infinity mirror built in giving it a unique effect.

Until i bought my twilight zone i had never even played on one but i knew id love it, & i did :D

I (well actually my wife) has a pitch & bat. It's a Williams Pennant Fever in great working shape though it does really need a new backglass since the red is starting to peel on it.

My other two pins are Comet and Black Knight. Sorry no pictures available. I'll have to take some as soon as I get half the body parts from my Thunderbird parts car out of the aisle between the machines.

Had three pinball machines a million years ago... Trident, Galaxy and the last one I don't remember...

If I got one now, it would have to be Tales of the Arabian Knights (Williams).

Revenge from Mars is my favorite though Twilight Zone is good for hours at a time-

That revenger from Mars Machine is great.

I want to get into pins, just haven't found a good source. (Also my wife won't let me get another arcade cab until she gets a pin.) We have been to a few pinball shows, but still haven't found the right machine at a fair price.

If money were no object I'd love to get either a Gilligan's Island or else a Simpsons machine. I hold out hope for them some day.

For the first machine I think I'd be happy with just about anything in a working condition that has multi ball. If anyone in NJ has one they want to get rid of (and are willing to deliver), let me know I'm interested and I'm sure we can work something out.
