Sweet I love B-movies, and pinball what better combination could ther be? I'm still waiting to have enough $$$ for the Creature From the Black Lagoon pinball. Arcade games are not cheap.

oh awesome! pinball is so cool. if i didnt live in a tiny crappy room i would totally collect pinball machines. but then again, they would cut into space that could have reptiles. . . it like my fathers theory on almond hershey bars. he doesnt eat them, perfers regulars, saying : in all the space in which there is almonds, there could be more chocolate.

I have a friend who has creature from the black lagoon, not one of my Favorite machines. You be suprised, they don't cost as much as you think they do. If you lived in Ontario one of the vendors here holds an auction about every 2 months and you can usually pick up a machine for not too bad a price, the machine will usually need some work but still a good deal all the same.

I have room for both :) Reptiles are in one of the spare beedrooms, pinballs are in the basment where it is too cold for the reptiles. I'll have to post pictures of my games basment.

Well you guys just missed the Toronto Game Room Show, www.torontogameroomshow.com. It was allot of fun, $10 admission got you a free pass to play pinball all day and there were about 20 pinballs available to play. The Toronto game room show only happens once a year so maybe next year you guys might be able to come.

The auction I was talking about is from www.starburstcoin.com. They have an auction about once a month or once every 2 months. The machines at that auction usually need work but you can sometimes find some really good deals. I've lucked out once or twice and gotten some good deals. The next starburst auction is actually this Saturday.

For the real enthusiast there is the Toronto Pinball League. I'm a member of the League, but basically every Monday the group gets together either at a members houses or a public arcade and plays pinball in a league style of play. I have had allot of fun doing this over the last few months. You can find out more at http://www.topl.org/ and that is about it for things that are happening in the city related to pinball.
