I have three areas where I keep my pins. My main game room is where I keep my five favorites (expanding to six soon), however. Anyway, one of the five left my home last night as I was able to sell it for a good bit about value and it was time to mix things up a bit. So right now Jurassic Park is in someone else's home. It was the first machine of the five pictured here that I owned, and I'm going to miss that thing. Anyway, I'm thinking of plugging the hole up real soon as I have leads on either a Funhouse or Addams Family. Here's how the row looked about two weeks ago; I'll post a new picture when the new pin finds its way in.

(btw, is there a "jealous font" on here? i could really use that for the above ;) )

Very nice row indeed:). This is how our want my gameroom to be but my area will only allow me 3 pins 2 arcade games, foosball, and a MAME arcade machine. You have 2 of the three I need LoTR, and the TZ and they would look good with High-Speed in the mix. Those are the 2 I'am looking for in the future. Thought the wife recently played a PoTC at a movie theatre and she enjoyed that so maybe scratch on e of those for the Pirates. I see that your Twilight Zone has LED's in the backbox, and a few on the PF. Nice collection.
 
That's a great line up there. Are those normal bulbs on your TZ, or LEDs?

I have LEDs in the backbox, flashers, and inserts. The GI is all incandescent. Same for LOTR and Bride of Pinbot. Haven't decided what I want to do with the Indy yet. My Simpsons Pinball Party is the only other one I've done the all insert with LEDs conversion. I think I like all LEDs for inserts best, actually.
 
The TZ looks awesome with LEDs in the backbox. I'm happy to admit that I was wrong about that one. I thought it would look like ass.

I agree. The TZ back box looks great, are those frosted LED's or the 170 wides cool whites?

Yeah, that's a tough one. I'm really digging the LEDs on TZ and am probably going to order some when I get home. Trying to decide if Indy should have them. The natural orange glow seems to suit the game as is.

Ya the LED's in the TZ's backbox just looks like it suppose to have the cool color of white, when your Indy has alot of reds, orange, which looks better with incandescent warm glow. I would order them LED's if I had a TZ and no LED's. Question is are these the regular frosted LED's or the wide angle 170's?
 
WOW! Look at the difference, TZ was meant for those frosted LED's! When ever I get a TZ (some day ) LED's will be in the backbox.
 
Just so that I know what I'm buying here, I see a playfield kit and an insert kit. Is one for the lights under the layfield and one for the lights over the playfield? And which is which?
 
Nice collection Jar!!! Sorry to see the JP go but if the price was right more power to you! I didn't know you had an Indy! Either WMS Indy or Lotr are going to be one of my next pins for this year. I've seen a couple of Indys out there but I thinks these are one of those pins I'm going to splurge a little bit more for a nice one! I've seen Indy with LEd's---doesn't look good....That's a tough call between Addams or FH. Myself, I would go with FH....
 
Jar, is that your Jurassic Park pinball review up on youtube? I noticed a Twilight Zone on the left and a LOTR on the right, and am pretty sure I heard Bride of Pinbot.
 
Yep, that's my Jurassic Park review...

Anyway, the hole didn't last long. Last night I made a deal for an Addams Family and I'll be picking it up today after lunch. I. Can't. Wait!
 
Nice! I should really thank you for starting this thread by the way. Not only did it encourage me to purchase an LED kit for my TZ, my wife really wants a Jurassic Park now. I guess I'm just going to have to be a good husband and buy one.

Seeing your videos and how you care for all your machines, I'am sure you will give her a once over before the Addams Family is in her new home. Thanks for posting those videos:), as this helped me out and I'am sure alot of others as well.
