I just found out that Nick Angel is well known guy in the pinball community. I bought my CV from him last year.

I don't think so, you own more than him, I saw his collection in person, not very impressive.

He's active in TOPL and he's one of the folks behind the promised Toronto Gameroom Show.

, then you didn't meet Nick Angel

He has over 35 Pins setup in his basment almost all WPC/Stern games all in pristine shape.  

Also far as I know unless he has 2 CV's last I was there he still had his CV.  I'll actually be hading to his place tommorow for league night.

He has also setup and run The Toronto Game Room since it's inception.

He is just an all around nice guy as well.

Yes I did, I even still have the emails we exchanged in my "sent items" in my email box.

Maybe he has those 50 machines sitting in friends houses??  Anyway there were not at all 50 games in his basement when I picked up CV!
Is he Candian?
If so, then it was'nt CV that I bought from him, but something else.

Nick Angel is an all around good guy and credit to the hobby ... and has a fantastic collection, I would say at least 30 machines in A-1 condition including many of the recent Sterns.  Sadly I have to miss going to his place for TOPL tonight.  Sob!

Jeez, I don't know about that.  This guy has a basement FULL - and not a small basement either.  I couldn't guess but there are certainly dozens of pins and dozens more vids - and not the cheap ones either.

My mistake, I checked my emails yestersay and found out that he is not the guy I bought the CV from, Nick had contacted me for the Junk Yard I had for sale last year.
So I never saw his collection, it was another guy.
Sorry for the confusion I caused.

This is Nick Angel.

Bonus Where's Waldo?

Spot Sparky and Gory for bonus points!



Here is a cameo appearance from Monkeybug.



More pinball "pros"


Canadian Pinball Championship from Jesse Morgan on Vimeo.

What was that? Sparky paying homage to the pinball gods?
