AC/DC PREMIUM |
 | Stern (USA) | Set up, plays! | Never | My first NIB. A great game! |
|
AVATAR |
 | Stern (USA) | Set up, plays! | Maybe | Just picked this game up in January 2018. It's the pro version, but has been brought up as close to an LE as you can get. Full LED, mirror blades, Vivak (PET-G) playfield protector, figures, powder coated side rails/lockdown/legs. Topper. A great game. |
|
BLACKWATER 100 |
 | Bally (USA) | Set up, plays! | Never | |
|
CIRQUS VOLTAIRE |
 | Bally (USA) | Set up, plays! | Never | Game is a sample/pre-production game. Absolutely love this title! In great shape, with no damage on Playfield. Cab is good, but is decaled and these are starting to wrinkle by the legs. Undercab lighting installed which serves this game well! Also have lighted shooter rod. Legs, side rails, and lockdown are painted purple and clear coated. |
|
FLICKER |
 | Bally (USA) | Set up, plays! | Never | Playfield restored with an artwork touch-up and clear-coat. This inside of this game was completely torn down and all metal parts were cleaned and polished. Looks fantastic. Back glass is in mint condition. No peeling or blemishes. |
|
HOOK |
 | Data East (USA) | Set up, plays! | Maybe | Game had a pretty strong restoration completed in June 2012. NOS clear coated playfield installed. New lamp sockets throughout. All parts were polished and cleaned. LED's installed. Even the zip ties are new here. Cabinet in good condition, but backbox has some art damage. |
|
INDIANA JONES: THE PINBALL ADVENTURE |
 | Williams (USA) | Set up, plays! | Never | In great condition, with only minor cabinet damage and fade. Has jackpot board installed, along with the lost plastic and backlight. Also has propeller mod. Legs, Lockdown Bar, Side Rails, Hinges, and Gun are brass plated (2013). |

|
MISS-O |
 | Williams (USA) | Set up, plays! | Maybe | This game has been fully restored, except the cabinet which shows the typically wear and tear. The playfield has been touched up and clear coated by HSA Pinball, and all metal parts have been cleaned and polished. All new lamp sockets and ground braid. All parts are functioning well, and are original or to spec replacements. The game is in great shape and plays well. |
|
PARAGON |
 | Bally (USA) | Set up, plays! | Never | Game is set up and fully operational. Playfield has been touched up and clear coated. Cabinet needs to be restored, but is decent for it's age. Backglass is a solid 10 out of 10. |

|
STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION |
 | Williams (USA) | Set up, plays! | Never | Game is in excellent condition. Solid 9 out of 10. This is by far my favorite game and would be the last to go. I've gotten lucky with this game - it's not very forgiving play wise, which is nice. Despite what I hear a lot, this game rarely gives me trouble. Has topper and under-cab lighting. |
|
TALES OF THE ARABIAN NIGHTS |
 | Williams (USA) | Set up, plays! | Never | Machine in great condition. Has gold side rails, lock down bar, and legs. Installed Pinball Pro sound/sub. Game also has topper. This is the wife's favorite, so it's a keeper for sure. |
|
TWILIGHT ZONE |
 | Bally (USA) | Set up, plays! | Never | Re-import from Germany, but has been fully torn down and cleaned. New main ramp and NOS plastic set. Factory translite was yellowed a bit, so reproduction installed. Flipper Fidelity Sound installed (though may go back to stock). Currently on extended loan to an Aunt, |
|

CENTRAL PARK |
 | Gottlieb (USA) | Sold | | Unrestored, but appears to be working fine. Needs a good shop job. Cabinet fair, backglass good, but not great. Would sell. |
|
EMBRYON |
 | Bally (USA) | Sold | | |
|
NIGHT RIDER |
 | Bally (USA) | Sold | | Game is just cleaned (Jan. '18). It' s in pretty good shape overall, but does show some wear. A lot of the parts were rusted, so I've cleaned much of that as best I could. All new lamp sockets, playfield stripped and cleaned with new rubber. Chime box rebuilt. All coils/switches/lamps work fine. Cabinet is in really good shape, and the backglass is mint. Comes with coin box/manual/extra set of rubber. |
|
PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN |

|
STRANGE SCIENCE |
 | Bally (USA) | Sold | | Cabinet is an easy 9.5 out of 10. New Particle ramp installed. Playfield an 8 out of 10, but overall really nice. Playfield wear is not in noticable spots, and you really have to look for it. Full shop job completed Nov. 2011. |
