Were 1/3rd into feb. Anybody beef up there collections so far? So far ive got a centipede, crystal castles, dig dug, and ms. pac that ive added. I got the three except cc on trade, and thanks to a great deal got the cc board from a member here to get it working. I got the cc from a member as well on a trade needing a monitor and boards. Cab in really nice shape. The hss on the pede works too and is in the best shape of the three in that trade. Love the cc.
 
If you are a buyer right now, there are SO many deals out there that it's almost hard to pass them up!! I could have bought so many games in the last few months for dirt cheap.. but had to pass and focus on games that I enjoy the most.. and ones that are in the best condition for the price...

Over the past month I've bought a very nice Donkey Kong Machine in all original condition and a Mortal Kombat 4 Z-cab in outstanding condition.. all at what I would consider bargains. But then again, it seems like standups are everywhere for pretty cheap right now, you just have to be on the lookout and be ready to buy the good ones (or the ones you want) as soon as they pop up!

Not sure how many more I'm going to buy, it really depends on which games come up and how sweet the price is... I'll worry about where I'm going to put them later!! :)
 
I got my first machine and it was Donkey Kong I got it all original the picture on the monitor looks perfect I am very happy now I want more lol.
 
I have bought 1 and a half Asteroids', a generic cocktail with Centipede shotgunned inside it, 2 Firepower pinballs, and sold Space Duel. My bought-to-sold ratio is all messed up :D
 
Paperboy, Star Trek, Mario Bros, Tron, Asteroids cabaret, Killer instinct II, Tekken 3.

But tomorrow I hope to get one that will top all the rest!!!:eek:
 
Oh god my brain and my back hurts thinking about 2010 so far... I've traded some nice working machines for a shitload of projects! Cool, a few keepers, but at the same time overboard and tons of work. I think I ended up moving 7 out and got 12+ in but keeping just a few... Traded my Joust and Wild Kingdom EM machines for the pinball machine in picture one. I fell in love with the girls on the backglass and dope setup on the playfield. Its a keeper for sure!! Lets see here, Traded my Neo-Geo 4 slot for a Gauntlet Legends. I really like the Gauntlet Legends, plays good and is pretty damn fun especially with a few people helping fight. Traded off Moon Patrol and a couple of other cabs for a shitload of Gottlieb system 1 project pins. Some have found new homes, some I'm repairing to sell this springtime. Also found a cool Q-bert project to replace the missing void left by Joust, it should clean up great need to do some p/s work!

Here's a few pics of a portion of the chaos!

Genie was setup at my work while I was working on it... it was cool to play pinball in the shop, but it was getting dusty after a few weeks and was very distracting when people wanted to play pinball during the day while I'm trying to work! Finally got her working good (other than sound board/chimes) and took it home for my birthday at the end of January... TOTALLY EFFED ME FOR SPACE WITH THAT BONEHEAD MOVE! Now I gotta get Spy Hunter out of my livingroom before I attempt to live somewhat normal again!

got my much to do rally x cocktail. waiting on a bunch coming within the month!! i might have to sell my furniture to make room if the deal goes through! some duplicates so i'll pass the deals along!
 
Pole Position, Space Riders pinball, Centipede cocktail, Centipede u/r for parts only since it was missing the main board and trackball.

Space Riders might have been late December. I've gotten so much stuff from the end of last year/early this year that it's hard to sort it all out.

Genie has a beautiful backglass. I wish I didn't sell mine.
 
So far ... I have picked up a Dragons Lair and a Bram Stoker's Dracula. I am super pleased with both purchases!

BSD is a routed re-import and is by no means "collector quality" - I will enjoy it for a few months and then pass it along to someone else.

The Dragon's Lair, on the other hand, is a keeper. When and if I ever beat the game, I have the Space Ace kit to throw in there to keep things fresh!

Sold Dig Dug and Hurricane pin to make room ... I wish I had more room. :-(

Since Jan 1st I got 4 working cabs in trade from a fellow Klov'r. Super chase,Shinobi,World rally, and Tokio. A week ago I bought a Turbo cabaret from a local. Going to pick up a Time pilot 84 and Future spy next week.
 
Were 1/3rd into feb. Anybody beef up there collections so far? So far ive got a centipede, crystal castles, dig dug, and ms. pac that ive added. I got the three except cc on trade, and thanks to a great deal got the cc board from a member here to get it working. I got the cc from a member as well on a trade needing a monitor and boards. Cab in really nice shape. The hss on the pede works too and is in the best shape of the three in that trade. Love the cc.

Have or or have plans made to get:

R-Type - beginning of Jan (trade)
Tempest - This Sunday (KLOV purchase)
Punchout - pick up Feb 20 (trade)

Possibilities:

-Space War
-Space Invaders
 
Whirlwind pinball
Deerhunger/Turkey Shoot combo
A burn free Wells 25" monitor
and maybe a DK cocktail...that's Donkey King :) (no typo)
 
I'm running a little slower this year... Spy Hunter ... already restored... and a Punch Out that is well on it's way to becoming a Super Punch out.

I think I have a problem I have managed to add 700 games to my warehouse when I am already out of room. I purchased 10 games today and my wife the BOSS is getting pissed.
 
I added 1... and am now totally out of room. Got a nice free Marvel Super Heroes in a Dynamo cut corner cab, 25" monitor. Just waiting on the chassis (WG U2000) to get back from Chad @ arcadecup to fire this one up. I can't wait. The rest of the year will be spent fixing up the games I have.
 
So far this year, I sold a Stargate and picked up 3 Joust cabinets and a Space Invaders II cocktail. And a mess of boards and other parts.

I should have a Joust I picked up last year ready to sell in the next few weeks if anybody in Houston is looking for one...</hint>
