Wooww... What a shame... I forgot to post this roadtrip...done few months ago
I really like pinballs, but I'm not a 'die hard fan' of them... I just love to play them... and until now, I always focus on arcade games first. But my 'must have list' is almost complete so it's time to get some pinballs
In addition, a game room without at least one pinball is not a game room
OK, back in august 07...
I've founded a nice Bally's Judge Dreed pinball for a very nice price. The seller is ok to bring it to me for a very low price : Bingo
So we agree on a date... but... guess what ? ... I've founded another pinball... a Sega's Star Wars Trilogy... and I've to pick it up the same day
So, I'm waiting the first seller for the Judge Dredd, and after that, I'll have to do a roadtrip to pick up the Star Wars... What a day
OK, here's the first seller...
A Bally's Judge Dredd... I never played it before, but according a lot of Judge Dredd owners, it's a really good pinball to start with
Of course, no more free space in the Nuno's Lair... so this first pinball will go directly in the living room
Let's try it... ok, everything looks fine...
I hope it will be possible to put it between the Guitar Freaks & the After Burner
Yeah, it's fine
The deal is done
Of course, the seller recognize the biggest piece of the Arcade history... the Computer Space
He knows the game. It's the first time he can see it for real... He asks me if he can try it.... of course my friend
~Enjoy~
Well, the story is not over... As I said, I've a Sega's Star Wars Trilogy *special edition* to bring back... a 350 km roadtrip to do ...
I use to start each roadtrip very early, but this time... it will be late... 18h08
...somewhere during the trip... can't remember
...
Ok, on location... the pinball is there
Very clean but it needs some minor repairs to do and few adjustments ...
Of course, the price will go down
Negotiation time
Ok, the deal is done... for the first time, I'll load a pinball in my car
...it should be fine...
Perfect !
Time to say good bye
...on the way to back home...
What a day ...
Two pinballs the same day... one roadtrip ... a lot of fun (and some work) to come
Stay Tuned for the pictures 'on location'
