I have a CC Jukebox pinball that I like.  It was the last of the E.M.'s in 1976.  I had a Bally Fleet from 1936.  That was one of the first games with a solenoid to propell the ball back up the playfield.  Flippless and surprisingly fun.  As far as modern styles, I like Family Guy or Shrek, same playfield, different props.

What I would like to own at a reasonable price, would be a Rockola World Series, a Mills Cannon Fire, Gottlieb Amazing Siderman,  Sterns Simpsons Party Pinball or Family Guy.  I would have to sell everything to make room for the new collection,  biggrin  but I'd rather have a variety of different games instead of just pinball.

Larry, RayG is building a virtual pinball table.  One table, as many games as you want. I prefer the real thing, but I know  all about space limitation.

That's intesting, but there's nothing like the real deal.

I like the Addams family pin as well, brings back good memories. There was one in our town hockey rink right next to the locker rooms, I always used to play after games.

Back in the mid 70's when I had my Detroit News paper route, I put enough money in a Bally Wizard machine to own the damn thing. I played a lot of pinball through college and that is still my favorite machine to this day.  I have seen some nice ones out there and have been close to pulling the trigger on one.  The only thing that stops me is that if I show up at home with one of those, I may end up deaf, dumb and blind by the time my wife is done with me!  biggrin Cool laugh
