Found or No Longer Wanted "Getaway: High Speed II" or maybe at the Kalamazoo Pinball at the 'Zoo?

[thegleek]

Hi,

I'm looking for a Getaway HS2 pin, Looking within 100+ mile radius of Ann Arbor, MI.
Also Ontario, Canada. Will travel several hours for the right game!

@SCUBA King requested the game, I've got to comply!

Is anyone going to be bringing a Getaway that they plan on selling to the Pinball at the 'Zoo
expo in Kalamazoo during Sept 2nd-4th this year? I'm interested in one of these at the right price!

I've had a few messages, but haven't nailed anything down yet. I'm willing to pay a fair price.

kthx

I loved playing goldball at your place, will miss it when she finally gets moved out to @j0novision

Having a getaway will be incredible. Of course you're always welcome to store it in my basement for safe keeping.

Getaway is a great pin. It was the only pin I've ever owned, till I lost mine in a fire. But damn, it was fun to restore and get deep into (back when I was downloading text-based pinball guides and tech info from the early web.)

I had a guy teach me the ropes on how to play when I was in college, and I decided I wanted to own one. I think I paid $700, not working and a little rough, but she cleaned up nicely. But that was probably 20 years ago. I'd love to own another one, but not at today's prices.

I actually played a virtual version of it at a local pinfest a few years ago, and I was surprised at how accurate it felt. I don't know anything about virtual pin platforms, but having been very familiar with the real thing, I was impressed with the physics.

Good luck with the hunt!

I actually built one, that cabinet is wicked complex, It took 5 attempts at that top panel alone, Even did a build thread on it over at Byoac, but dumped it just before they banned this Princess , Damn shame, that had to have been one of the top 5 nicest Getaways on the planet...Secretly thinking to build another...Good luck on your search OP.

You showed a couple of pics of a backbox in 2018.

You were banned this year. There were never any finished pics or progress pics of anything but part of the back box.

I am sure everyone here would love to see how that pin turned out.

That pin doesn't belong here...Unless I build another one.

Congrats man!! So, should we should expect you to be absent from the forum for a couple weeks until the honeymoon period is over? Probabbly the only time you would be excited to see a flashing red light up close. Well unless of course you were visiting the Chicken Ranch ZZ Top were singin about in La Grange!

You may be correct. After 10 speeding tickets I think it may be time for a getaway.
