Warehouse Pickup with Pinge, Kralleman & Rogerxy 23/10-2016

[smarty]

Looking forward to seeing all your goodies. 

[Superully]

fantastic, really looking forward what you got, guys!!!

[Pinge]

Thank god we took krallemans borrowed V70 and not my V50... one table had to go in the trunk. My camera died, have a few pivs in the phone.

Ok, So finally I decided to take the time to post some pictures, I guess they are quite similiar to pictures from previous  pickups from this warehouse.
Most of the games we already bought before but as always we tend to pick-up some loose stuff.

This time I found a japanese SI II coctail table hidden behind and under lots of stuff... funny that you the third time to the same place still find new things
Anyways, here goes the pictures.

Kralleman and Rogerxy came to my town the night before the trip, we started early on the Saturday, Kralleman fixing the bacon so we get the energy we need.


Roger Is ready by my car that will take us 2km to krallemans borrowed car..


Im quite ready aswell


Cold morning with ice on the windshield, no problem with Ice-Remover. We hooked up the rented trailer the night before so we could leave instantly, this was the first time Kralleman drove with a trailer... to us it seemed like he was born to do it so he did all the driving.


Our friend Magnus came with us this time again cause he had a few items to pick up aswell


So, no pictures from the trip itself, lets go straight to the pictures, we start with a few shots of things that are more or less left to rot outside.


















Maybe there is som hidden gems in this old well.... Magnus was not able to open it though, maybe bring a crowbar next time.


Look dad im a farmer


Ok, lets go inside, the first pictures is mostly jukebox parts I think, but I think you guys get a better grip of what order we are dealing with when you see these shelfes.




Something Atari on top


Glass and plastics









Loot and more loot


Nice blue monkey PCB




We dont know what we are looking for but we sure will find it somewhere in this building


Area 51


My empty Phoenix coctail, got a 14" monitor that stood next to it, probablly not working.


Scenery, alot of jukeboxes. I got the Bootleg Rygar in a cabaret cabinet, anyone seen this type of cabinet before? Or knwo who made it??


Radios and control panels, mostly hacked or stripped.




Kralleman inspecting the Challenger cabinet and see that the original CPO is underneath


This tyoe of joystick is on alot of the cabinets, must have been the operators favorite


The lineup pf Chicago Coin Pong clones, the nicest is already sold, note that one has joysticks 


The controlpanels again, Roger is trying to find anything useful


I found a couple of monitors laying around, bought one


How the hell did you get out Magnus wondered


We did not buy this SI Deluxe, unknown condition but complete, he wanted around 700€ for it


We got a Xybots converted to NeoGeo! In the background you can see a Star Castle we got )we got one last time to)


Here is the "Rygar" cabaret


Theese Trak-10 is highly priced for some reason, we already have two so we passed on them


I dont like the looks of this type of cabinet


He has both LE and LEII


Midway Submarine ans Sega Rad mobile


Defender and a Morris Mini


Lets try to get Magnus heavy bastard of a game out


Ergonomic way to haul it out from a narrow space


Nice condition anyways. One broken gun but he had one extra


Roger got a free spare monitor for the Road Runner he picked up last time!


I found this and placed my gloves on it to call dibs. Sadly missing PCB




This is the Phoenix on the way out


Ninja-Magnus and Kralleman carries Magnus other buy...


Vintage bubblegum, my favorite


3 guys to open one door!


This is not a minty Galaxian coctail, we did buy it though... need alittle more than a capkit 






Who lived in this cabinet??


The award for filthiest coinmech goes to......this galaxian coctail


Back to PCB-looting, we actually found some spare older ones that might come handy, a couple of TANK pcb:s, paddle battle, Trak-10 and so on... and some bootlegs like Bubble bobble, Bombjack, Pacman


atari powerbricks where 100€ a pop so we stayed away.




The right way to keep PCB:s safe


Coffe break


Might post a few more pictures later

fabulous, you guys seem to have a lot of fun when you are together!

that warehouse is both a blessing and a nightmare - expect the unexpected. the operator still seems to think he's sitting on a goldmine, he should be happy if someone comes over to clean out his stash. who's going to get rid off all that junk once he's gone?

[rogerxy]

who's going to get rid off all that junk once he's gone?

My guess is that it will be destroyed or sold for a pittance
The owner is 71 and his father is 95 (still going strong), they have collected since the 60's so naturally you get a whole lot of stuff in that time  

They probably have stuff for several millions (swedish SEK) and while there are quite a few treasures there's ofc. a lot of junk too. I guess the more junk you get, the harder it is to get rid of

[slowcade]

Is that a twin Scud Race being left out to rust?
Can you get the monitors and other pieces off those for free? How avout the two Naomi cabinets outside? 

[Luigi]

Wow, what a bunch of stuff....it would take ages to get all sorted  

But yeah, you guys seem to have lots of fun  

[Pinge]

everything outside should be very cheap I think... sounded like ha kept them for spares... but there is not much to save if they are standing out in rain and snow...
Dont know about a scud race, but it might be that....

And yes, we do have alot of fun when we get together 

As far as i understood he has no children to heritage the lot when he passes either, might be an auction for the whole shebang one day in the future, who knows!
Funny is that he is still buying jukeboxes and a sometimes a game or two.
The galaxian coctail and SI Deluxe just came from the U.S...

[Muerto]

OMG, damn thats a lot of stuff, I spy some Atari PSU´s and a Centipede CP, did you take that too?
Great pictures! Reminds me of a trip I once was on to a warehouse in Belgium, so much fun!!!!

[Alpha1]

Great find guys!!!

[rogerxy]

The Atari PSU:s were quite expensive but we have them in mind. I bought one for my Centipede cabaret project.

The Centipede CP was butchered & converted to some kind of poker game CP or something

[ajhippel]

wow, just  saw this thread right now..

the very first pic of this thread is a Midway Robby-Roto cab.... shitty game, but a very rare cabinet. just saw one in the US, i never thought that there is one in europe.

Great catch!
