Title: New here
Post by: philmurr on June 17, 2015, 03:20:54 PM

Hi everyone,

Hello from the south of England, long time collector since 2000, but new here, have been meaning to join for a while...

Mainly like the classics from late 70's / early 80's, especially Williams (my collection includes Defender, Stargate, Robotron, Joust, Turkey Shoot, Joust 2, and most recently Bubbles).  Also have around 30 other machines from various manufacturers, plus a couple of pins (Getaway High Speed 2 and Scorpion), about half of them work :oops:

Cheers, Phil.

(...) about half of them work :oops:

Don't worry that's exactly my ratio too at the moment :)

Nice to see you on here.

Phil has a great collection of cabs, we've made a handful of deals over the years, top guy!  :wink:

Thanks everyone for the welcome  ;D

Don't have a dedicated games room at the moment, just waiting for planning permission to build an extension to the house

But I will post a few photos of the cabs as they're taken out of storage and worked on
