Title: FS: Judge Dredd Pinball
Post by: level42 on November 02, 2011, 09:25:16 AM
I think this is the toughest decision to make yet in my collection, but I have to let go of my beloved pinball machine.

With the Hard Drivin' coming, I see no way to put it in my game room in any reasonable way (so that I can still shift cabs around for work when needed).

So, I am offering my fully working Judge Dredd pinball for sale.

It has been re-worked mostly. More details on that later. Everything works. The only small issues are balls sometimes flying out of a ramp and the through occasionally not shooting the ball in the lane (a slight shake helps). All solvable.

It has the famous Deadworld ring-mod, so the machine is like the designers meant it to be !!!
The trough LED print has been replaced with a brand new SMD version and I still have the opto board that comes with it, but it works fine as it is now with the original opto board.

The machine is in quite nice condition, slight discoloring, but no major damage anywhere. DMD is like new and I installed a polarized filter which prevents reflection in the play field glass.

The only REAL damage is of course the eagle. I will glue the rescued part to it so it looks not too bad, else you'll have to order a new one.

Every (reachable) lamp has been replaced, everything was cleaned (although I did not completely empty the play field like some extremists do).

It's really a nice playing machine and a much better game than it's repotted to be (just MHO of course).

I am going to be firm on the price because of market value and investments I put in it:

It's €850 for DLF forum members. I will also put it on Marktplaats. There is one on there now for over €1000

You're welcome to play of course.

Haha, no its not gone yet and as you know I would always prefer to see it go to a good house and forum member.

Good thing is you played it already :)

Yes I need a trailer, but I dont have a hook on my car and my boss so far refuses to allow one....

It's reserved for now for you PRC !

My strategy: Hey darling, how about a nice weekend out to [fill in cab location] ? I hear its nice this time of year, we need a little break right ? And oh, while we are in the area, there's this ultra cool rare cab, for a great price and I'm sure I will never have a chance like that again...

(at least this worked for me to the Munich area when I had "accidently" bought a MC cabaret) ;);)

Geez.....I hadn't thought there would be so much (and fast !) interest.....still getting to grips that it's actually going to leave here....

But the decision is made...

The space won't be left open though.....

Bye-bye Judge Dredd, it was great fun restoring, upgrading and playing !!

I am happy to know it goes to a good home !!!

Now the void left in the living room will be filled though....

Hah, no definitely not that last one. The first one would have been an option, but the Seeburg is a better quality for sure. It also looks much nicer IMHO.

... And arrived at The Cave. Actually it's still in the garage but it will find it's way in the basement soon. What a he'll of a road trip. I spend the last part in some kind of folded position behind the wheel, because Jochens PB we picked up from Gyruss place was so big that we had to move the seat in the frontmost position. I still can't feel the toes in my left leg and my arm feels like run over by a truck but hey! This is arcade!!

Thanks to all ... Esp. Andre, Pieter and Jochen who had to carry the stuff all alone because of my "little handicap"

Pics of the final destination will follow... Still a little work to do in the cave and one slot for the Puckman is still vacant ;)

I also traded a crap boot Teris pcb with the seller for 4 boards with a very old Taito game among them, I gues it is Indian Battle. ;)
The 3 boots are Combat School, Hyper Olympic and and unknown one with "Pit" sign on the roms, it could be Pit Fighter.
