    I got an email from legendary pinball artist Doug Watson (Big Game, Barracora, Demolition Man, T2, etc.) in response to that Jersey Jack Pinball Hobbit playfield article I wrote a few days ago. His words were so fitting, I asked him if I could post some of it. He agreed. PEOPLE: An Email from...

    Here is an interview with Ken Rossi, organizer of "Pinsanity". It is an annual 32-person tournament held in Mr. Rossi's suburban New Jersey home. The popularity of the tournament has been eclipsed by the popularity of Mr. Rossi's incredibly designed posters. Demand for them is incredible, and...

    Electronics tool on kickstarter

    Group buy perhaps? Save on that extra $15 international shipping to have it shipped within the USA. Unless you are going with the brushed silver monogrammed version?

    Electronics tool on kickstarter

    This one is pretty neat. However, I don't know if it would replace my DMM as a basement hobbyist, what about pin techs on the go? Menace? Grauwulf? $49 price tag is pretty affordable.

    Got my hands on a copy of the Pinball Magazine publication PINBALL, a photography book by Santiago Ciuffo. All photos were taken in his native Argentina, and that in itself puts a unique spin on the project. FEATURE: Santiago Ciuffo's Pinball http://creditdotpinball.com/2014/06/11/ ...

    "Went through" is such a harsh term. "Upgraded" is more like it. The Volley article is killing it in terms of views. EM lovers coming out in force!

    KISS pinball by Stern Pinball Inc.!

    I would imagine Stern isn't really shaking in their boots over Zidware with zero releases after a few years in existence. They probably saw the reaction, both positive and negative, in the community to Pop's mockup, and figured that a licence that could stir up that much emotion would be good...

    KISS pinball by Stern Pinball Inc.!

    I'm a buyer. No question. However, no fire sale just yet. I'll wait and see what the play is like. If it turns out to be a Rolling Stones, forget it. When you visit, Tim, I'll ask you not to barf on my NIB Kiss LE.

    Got to quote MAACA's own R.A.B. in this article. A huge thanks goes out to him, as well as Drano and WARLOCK, two Volley owners who shared pictures and knowledge about the game. I'll admit, Volley is my favourite EM. FEATURED GAME: Gottlieb VOLLEY http://creditdotpinball.com/2014/06/10/ ...

    FS "Not Mine" Pinball Machines For Sale

    Re: "Not Mine" Pinball Machines For Sale My theory: it's an Ontario flipper putting up all these ads. So when an absolute steal does show up, people will just think "Oh, it's gotta be one of those scams" and not bother inquiring. This leaves the door open for the dirtbag to swoop in and...
