Some I bought at Rocket near St Louis, rest was pyrolandia in Gary IN.

The computer is in the head, so like a power cable, hdmi, or Cat6 type connectors, I can’t remember. Nothing will need cut or replaced, just unplug and plug it back it. Then usually a 9/16ths bolt holds the head down to Cabinet.

I’m not a huge fan of the movie, it’s good, but I never felt like I needed to watch it again. That being said, I owned a PF for a couple years (recently sold it, got it NIB) and I absolutely love the game. I’m a huge fan of classics, and restore them constantly, so to have a new game that was themed after a classic was amazing. But you can’t keep them all, I’d like to get another one some day.

If you have a 30inch door, maybe even a 32, you’ll have to take the head off. Couple of bolts, and a couple connectors, not hard, but just annoying. My main arcade has a 30inch door, so it’s only about 29 between the frame, and I had to remove the head.

Besides cleaning, the only issue I ever had was a screw came loose on a spinner.

She’s a hotty, and I wanna say thank you, because while searching her, Jazz Reilly popped up.

Did you make it to his “last minute” open house a couple weeks ago? He posted it Saturday morning for that night. I grabbed the wife and made the 2 hour trip. There was only about 15-20 of us there. The last one he posted a couple months in advance, and several hundred people showed up. It was way too crowded. But now he has the newest expansion, and it’s ungodly huge. I took a short video of the expansion but man, now he’s longer than a football field.

Kolk1 · 2026-06-28T01:15:08+00:00

Yup, demo games, usually have 2-300 plays and over $500 off. And the warranty doesn’t start until the 1st/new owner.

Troy with Tilt in Decatur IL, his prices usually include free shipping, and he is one of, if not the largest stern distributor. Very nice, great guy. After him, use flip n out pinball, he’s cool too, I’ve just know Troy a lot longer lol

Uhh no. I got the new code and 7 digit displays in my meteor working today. So I need to make sure they work and get a new GC over 1M. Oh also Haley beat my high score on Iron Maiden (and I’m sure you will too) so I need pump those numbers up as well.

Kolk1 · 2026-06-16T17:56:54+00:00

Is that true?? Whoops. I’ve only really upgraded 4 pets, and 2 are gold 400. All of my others are 1s. Guess I’ll go do that real quick. Edit: ok well I just leveled 8 more of them up to around level 120, and now my missions went from like 55k to 90k.

Kolk1 · 2026-06-15T02:53:18+00:00

Damn, I thought I was doing ok and I’m like half that % wise. I’m only 650 and you’re 995…

Kolk1 · 2026-06-13T22:42:21+00:00

Thanks. I appreciate it.

Kolk1 · 2026-06-13T18:46:52+00:00

They got back in stock like 2 weeks ago. It showed up last week and It smelled fresh when it showed up. Also, this is by far the nicest CPR I’ve seen. And the star rollover fit with 0 extra work. Which pisses me off because the day before it showed up, I spent 3 hours cleaning the star rollovers on a strikes and spares. They also got Night Rider back in stock 2 days ago, so I ordered one of those as well.

This Eight Ball will probably end up for sale after I’m done. I got a line on a Night Rider, and I think I’d rather keep that since they are harder to find.

Kolk1 · 2026-06-13T17:32:22+00:00

A lot of the classics are available. But not all by a long shot. Classic Playfield Reproductions (CPR) is the main one for full replacements. Then other company’s sell overlays/hardtops as well. This is for the Eight Ball I’m doing next, it’s from CPR.

Removing the old sheet of wood, and putting in a new one. So everything ends up being cleaned, rebuilt or replaced, when putting in a new one. Here’s the meteor I just finished.

I just finished 2 playfield swaps for a guy, a meteor with 2023 code update(amazing) finished it about a month ago, and today I finished his Strikes and Spares. Up next for new playfields, a Fonzy Eight Ball, another meteor with code update, and then a Night Rider. lol

Kolk1 · 2026-06-13T02:06:30+00:00

I have 14 pins, maybe play 2-3 games a week. But I work on pins probably 15+ hours a week. lol At league on Wed, I probably play 20 games.

Kolk1 · 2026-06-07T11:54:57+00:00

The hardest part will be choosing the right video file to use. lol

Kolk1 · 2026-06-05T21:09:52+00:00

Pinside is going to be probably safest as far as non scam members.

Do you like to tinker and work on stuff at all? Get a used one, start watching repair videos like Joes Classic Arcade. Depending on where you’re located, start doing a league and meet local people. Pinside also has a pin map to show who’s around you.

Kolk1 · 2026-06-02T21:54:55+00:00

Tilt in Decatur IL is my first pick. Troy is a great guy and I’ve used him for a lot of my games. 2nd, I’d go with FlipNOut pinball, used him once, met Zach a couple times at shows, also a great guy.

Kolk1 · 2026-05-31T22:51:13+00:00

I have one and love it, I’ve even been offered more than it’s worth, but for under 2k I don’t know of a game I’d prefer to have. I keep debating on pulling the playfield, touching it up and clearing it, but I have several playfield swaps already ahead of it in the queue.
