Troxel let me take his restored baby pacman off his hands.
It is one fun machine. Had some friends come over to help me get it into the basement and put the hurt on my keg.
Worst part was waiting for it to warm up enough to turn it on. Set up a fan to blow on it for 30 minutes and she powered on fine. Put in a new ball, leveled it, adjusted the lock down bar, put some credits on it and let the folks have fun. Had a few little issues, but had it dialed in and got to play it late into the morning.
Needs a few bulbs, but not worried about that because I am going to LED it up so it matches my other pins. The maze is tough. I never really played pacman much before and the machine is so cute and just screamed "BorK you so need to get me and cherish me". It was impossible to resist.
Wife initially put me on a 2 year ban from buying another machine when I decided to get it. She sorta has a point, but we came up with an agreement that I will start saving for my next one instead of scrounging to get one on an impulse. An Attack from Mars or Fire will show up eventually I hope.
Friend made me a nice piece of art for the man cave.
Now the hard part is deciding how to update my sig. What is a hybrid arcade and pinball called?
