WOW...8 more showed up today...4 in one piece, 3 in Stern boxes, and 1 in a massive wood crate!!!  No time to unpack them all, so anyone who arrives early on Sat. can help rip open a box or 2!!   Mike and I went thru some others today...great news on Taxi, Rollergames, Monopoly, and Space Invaders. All are very nice with no problems. Not so nice is Eight Ball Champ...a reimport that hasn't been converted!  Great for parts I guess..I'll sell CHEAP to someone who can use Bally parts!!! Mike also put together Silverball Mania..worked without sound or displays, then had a little FIRE somewhere inside that smelled up the room for a few hours!!!  The machine looks nice though, but it will need some work on the insides. I"M OPEN TO OFFERS~!~!!! Others yet to unpack incl. Stern Stingray, Bally Lady Luck, Sonic Mars Trek, Sega Space Jam, Gottlieb Stargate, Stern World Poker Tour, and Gottlieb Jacks to Open. Others that are MOStLY working incl. Bally Night Rider and Williams Comet.

The full list of 100% working and ready to go machines is on the meetings thread..see you all Saturday!!!

Just to clarify the Silverball "fire" situation...  I think the transformer was having a meltdown..  The game was STILL working when we noticed the white smoke coming out the back BIG TIME..  Opened her up and nothing..  Not one scorch mark or burnt component anywhere?!?  

It didn't smell like electrical burning..  Actually it reminded me of the smell of boiling maple syrup.  If that makes any sense...

If thats what it was, definitely bring one along!!  It may end up being your machine anyhow...ya never know!

Converting the EBC back to 120 shouldn't be too difficult. Don't part it out just for that reason.

You should see the big transformer or whatever it is!!!     Looks real strange...I'll post pix today if I can...the PF is decent, although the cab. seems to have been modified. I'll take more pix and compare it to ipdb. A friend of mine has one too, so I might swing by and do some comparisons.

BTW Space Invaders and Last Action Hero are now tentatively sold... Taxi is pretty well sold too! All will still be at the mtg. though.
