Allentown... who's going and what are you looking for?

With Pinfest in Allentown just a few short weeks away, I thought it would be fun to see who's going?

Last year was my first trip and it was great to see that a ton of collectors from London to Quebec City (and all places in between) were in attendance.
Kind of funny that all the Canadians chose to congregate at an American event :D

I'm planning to be down there with a few friends and hope to bring at least one game for play/sale. Not 100% sure what yet.

Might be looking for something as well.
Even though buying in the US is becoming less and less attractive, I'm always on the lookout for: Indianapolis 500, Godzilla, Centaur, etc... (and now Swords of Fury ;) )

How about y'all???

I'm in. Last year I went down with the wife and baby for Saturday only, so I didn't get the full experience of hanging out with "the gang". Looking forward to meeting and drinking with fellow Canadian collectors on foreign soil.

I've got a room booked at the Comfort Suites at the Pinfest group rate, so if anyone is looking split a room, let me know. I'll be driving too, so you can catch a ride.

I'll be looking for my current grail, Elvira and the Party Monsters, but I'm not holding my breath. I'd be happy finding a Cyclone in good condition. However, I'll be keeping my eyes open for "lesser" System 11 games that may be a bit harder to find (SoF, Bad Cats, Transporter, etc.). I think trolling Pinside leading up to the event to set up a buy beforehand is a good strategy...with cut-throat competition what it is.

If all else fails, I'm buying a Bugs Bunny Birthday Ball. No. Seriously.

Will keep an eye out for SoF; forgot about that one ;)
It's been on my hit-list lately as well.

Calling a preemptive dibs in case you score one first :D

I'll be there with the wife and the baby for my first Pinfest.
I have a TSPP to pick up... What a small world...I bought it from the same guy who bought Drano's Banzai Run... :shock:
I am also looking to bring back a new ramp for my FT and a couple sheets of glass.

Cant wait to see pinball enthusiam wearing their PBRev shirt :p

This may be a better option than finding someone to bunk with...!! And if this does happen, I insist, the beer is on me!
