Sorry if this is a repost but what was your first pinball machine? How long ago did you get it? Im new to pins, mine was the champ, had it a little over a year now.
 
JP, around a year or so ago. Now up to seven. Data East games don't feel as solid as B/W games, but they are still fun to play and a hell of a lot cheaper. That said, I'm looking to buy my first B/W game soon! Would like to get a nice sampling of games from different manufactures. See a Stern in the near future too. Maybe a TSPP or a RBION. Was intimidated at first with pins, but I have gained confidence with fixing them. Glad I took the first step.
 
I'll let you know in about 3 weeks. I'm in full-on mania looking at pins... Main contenders are Pinbot, Space Shuttle and High Speed because I loved them when they were new. I'm willing to give other stuff a shot though!
 
I bought a Williams No Fear pinball from my local arcade back in 99. Still have it, and the arcade closed shortly after I bought it.

Addams family. Got about 4 months ago. Since I've added a high speed and am going to add a twilight in the future!
 
I have had 3 seperate "starts" in this hobby. Got a Gottlieb High Hand when I was 14 for my birthday. Bought my first pin with my own money in '98, was a Williams Demolition Man. My first pin at my own house (not my parents) was a Williams Earthshaker. Now up to 4 in the house. Traded ES for BOP, also have STTNG, TZ, and Gottlieb Genesis.
 
Black Knight 2000. Got it when I was 18 without having ever played a game of pinball in my life. That is a sweet game.
