25.01.2022 Well, its been fun but its time the Batman found a new home. I took us a few years to find one and its a great game. However the lotto people are not keeping promises and we cant own them all. In its place will be something special, very different and very, very cool.

25.01.2022 Heres a short video showing how good they look.

23.01.2022 Thank you to the community of Emerald,friends and family.

22.01.2022 WTF is that? Its pinball, but not as you know it! Revenge from Mars The last machine made by Bally Williams in 1999, groundbreaking platform with endless potential had they kept going. A monitor hangs above and projects images onto the glass which is reflective.... So much fun. Really campy callouts. See more

21.01.2022 Too much work and not enough play lately. Today I installed a mod on Judge Dredd. The ugly plastic for the crane arm replaced with a more realistic crane arm complete with led lights when activated.

20.01.2022 Changed out Lost in Space with Dirty Harry today. Next is to give it a good old clean

19.01.2022 "I AM THE LAW" At it again pinball lovers. Check out this big bad boy!! Our latest acquisition is Judge Dredd. A Bally Williams classic from 1993. Features include 4 flippers, 3 ramps, a moving magnetic crane, a rotating "deadworld" planet that locks your balls and wireform rails everywhere!! While it looks complicated and has a deep rule set its actually not hard to shoot. With up to 6 ball Multiball the fun factor is way up there. Love it.

17.01.2022 Another one for good mate Ash is Sharkeys Shootout. This was a clean and smarten up, not a restore. Fitted coloured titan rubbers throughout, pop bumper led discs, coloured leds, mirror blades, new target, some new plastics and some pool sharks as well. Good fun game.

16.01.2022 For sale, Lost in Space pinball machine, very good condition, reliable and heaps of fun to play with 3 four-ball multiball modes. Support offered if sold locally. Very rare machine, only 600 ever made. Others selling on eBay for $5800, asking $5000, inspection welcome. Message 0428729951

16.01.2022 Had so much fun getting to play these three beauties tonight. Incredible games to play, spectacular light show, amazing sound, gameplay that kicks your butt. Even got a high score on Metallica. Awesome!!!!

14.01.2022 Have not posted on here for a long time, thought I would share some photos of a machine that I am currently restoring. Its a 1995 Williams No Fear, great game. I purchased it in a sad state with no circuit boards and other parts missing.

12.01.2022 Ever wonder whats on the underside of a pinball playfield? A whole lot of spaghetti, thats what!

12.01.2022 Created my own topper for No Fear today, really suits the theme I think

11.01.2022 Demolition Man getting some maintenance

11.01.2022 The second Sharkeys Shootout Ive had the pleasure of tidying up. Only 800 of these ever made and two located within a kilometre of each other in the middle of Queensland. This one came up real nice after some repairs and cleaning. Good fun game.

11.01.2022 Yeah...this is me

11.01.2022 Video of the cab lighting in action at the end of a game

11.01.2022 Special delivery today. Thanks heaps to a fellow collector. His Soccer machine from 1975 was missing a backglass. Mine needed a new one, the artwork was deteriorated. I supplied mine for reference and he had two new made by a company in America. On the right is the old. Really beautiful, fantastic artwork. Very happy.

10.01.2022 Playfield stripped and some bad wear found. Some black touch ups thanks to fona, also some photoshopping and waterslide decals made and applied. All covered in a gloss clear coat.

09.01.2022 Check out the logos my daughter knocked up for me. Love them both, really cool

07.01.2022 Wow what a busy last couple of days. As a club we were so proud to be able to help out with the use of our shed for the Flip it for Lewy Event. Selling soft d...rinks and water over the last few days we were able to donate to the Move for Mosley page $300. This money will go towards bringing Livins mental health workshops into schools, starting with Central Qld. Big thanks to Greg, Dean, Kevin, Shakey and Dave for all your help

07.01.2022 If she reacts like this....she is a keeper :)

05.01.2022 Finished a house call today. Pressing both flippers shuts the game down. While I do the diagnosis I send the circuit boards for repairs to the pros. What a fantastic game to play, so much to do

04.01.2022 Awesome birthday present from my daughter. Great addition to one of my favourite games

04.01.2022 Finished (mostly) machine has been playing fast and faultless. Work performed was a ground up restoration where not one screw or wire was left untouched. New cabinet decals, clearcoated playfield, new ramps, new plastics, leds throughout, interactive undercab lighting, powdercoated ball rails, colour display plus much more.

04.01.2022 Fitted some mods to Demo man today. The cryogenic sign changes colour, although its not very bright unfortunately. The back elevator panel is light up nicely now, before and after pic. The video shows a flash when shooting the ball. Also flashes at other times.

03.01.2022 NO LONGER FOR SALE Batman Forever pinball machine Fantastic game, great fun, based on movie of same. Features include a cannon in the shape of a batwing that fires a ball across the playfield, extra large coloured display, multiple ramps and wireforms including one across the apron above the flippers, Multiball action and quotes from the movie.
