I bought this machine off of Hammerhead about a couple months ago. I was thinking I might be able to fit it in my basement. When I was picking it up and realized that the top lifts up even higher to service it I knew it would not fit in my basement but maybe my friend basement. It did not! So it is currently in his spare bedroom. It cant stay there forever so I am going to have to let er go :(

I'm looking for a trade (+/-) for maybe Congo, TZ, TAF, X Files, Whirlwind, TWD Premium, Godzilla, Paragon but try me on anything really.

The machine is working great. No errors or issues. Hammerhead stripped both playfields and rerubbered everything and rebuilt all 6 flippers. I stripped the playfield again, cleaned er up, added in colored cliffy posts and changed out a couple plastics. Displays work great. Machine is fully LED'D.

Thanks, Mike

P.s. I just took a few quick photos but I can take better and closer pics when I am there next.

That's because you place a super annoying WTB ad every few hours hoping to get more pins to flip for profit.

Hey Cyclone. Sure seems like you are just Trolling around but maybe you are just of the school of thought that when one sells a machine they should sell for a loss since they used it.

I am a founder and currently the President of the London Ontario Pinball League (LOPL). I have several pinball machines on location in London for people to play. I run various tournaments (several have been for various charities). I even host a pinball podcast (not that we have many listeners :)

I (with the help of good friends) have spent endless hours driving, bringing back to life, restoring, fixing and improving a lot of machines that were in desperate need.

I'm happy to say that I have sold maybe 20 machines to about a dozen different LOPL members helping to build up the local pinball scene and also to help bring in more LOPL hosts.

Any money I have made selling pins has all been sunk into my collection which I share with the LOPL when I host every few months.

So Cyclone, what have you done for your local pinball community?

Nobody expects to sell at a loss I get that. But you are just a pure profiteer. Yes you run a league but those games on location are yours and you get coin drop out of them. You're the type of guy who is worse for the hobby by praying on non-pinball people to sell them cheap games and then selling them to other people for more money....why not just let other people have them at the fair price?

I've got a No fear pinball from atariaction at a fair price last summer, Not only did he have it packed up and ready to load but he open his doors and let me play pinball all night ....plus there was beer! I would gladly buy off Atariaction again.
