We are taking the apparently novel approach of not taking anyone's money until we have something to sell. :)
You can signup for our notifications list at www.circusmaximusgames.com and you'll be among the first to know when something is available for sale.

It will play more like a pinball machine, including in the rules. Python didn't like how the prototype played more like a redemption game than a pinball machine, so we plan to try and rectify that.
Thanks to everyone who stopped by at the Allentown Pinfest show and checked out our prototype whitewood Python's Pinball Circus.
The next time the circus is coming to town is June 19th-21st at the Southern Fried Gameroom Expo.
See you there!
My guess is that the ones for the 12 sample games might be hand made. But no way in hell we are building any production ones by hand. :)
We have the original engineering drawings for them, but no wire company would touch them until we got to a certain quantity because they'd have to build...
Thanks everyone for their support. Just a quick update, we are at about $8300 so far, which is pretty cool.
If anyone is coming to the Ohio Show we will have some signed limited edition prints from Python available there for sale too.

In order to help us reach the 50% mark of our goal to help Pinball Designer Python Anghelo, an anonymous donor has agreed to match any donations from now until 10pm Eastern Time today, up to a total of $2000.

We have gotten to the 25% raised point in about 48 hours. That's pretty cool.
Thanks everyone! I know I've said this frequently, but the collector community really is a great bunch of people!
If anyone can help us get moving towards the 50% mark it'd be greatly appreciated!
I should add that Al Warner put together a nice promo video for the campaign. It's now on the gofundme page, and you can also view it at the following link:

Thanks Al!
We've been working with Josh and Zach from the IFPA and they have just announced some Charity tournaments similar to the Barry Oursler events they sponsored recently.

Al,
Thanks for posting this over here.
We are off to a great start with reaching 14% of the goal in a little over 12 hours.

To me any DMD under 1k is a good deal.
I had a Street Fighter II for a while, and those should be available for $700-$1000 and while sometimes it doesn't get much respect, it was a very solid platform and I actually enjoyed the game.
I got my POTD figures on Amazon I think. There is also someone on Pinside that has some available with an LED mod to light them up. I believe these are them...
