    Nothing quite like a classic vintage boombox and pinball.

    Just finished replacing the cassette motor last week on the RX-7000. Now that it is working flawless, I've been taking it with me everywhere I go around the house. This picture demonstrates how close I got to cleaning up the basement yesterday :)

    Those lights are so nice looking, sometimes with LEDs we just want it super bright and forget how much a little yellow adds a lot of charactor. What pinball is that, the flippers are really small.

    Here's an old forum photo from 2007! Sadly my machines are in storage right now until I can get some room for them but I love the sound of the machines resetting for a new game.

    WOW !

    sir, yes, find space for your pinball-machine, playing pinball is an essential part of human rights, but PLEASE, more details on that „Musik Trek“, it‘s a 100% Cloneman i haven‘t listed yet - you wanna trade it for sthg. else :fisch?

    @ Transistorized: great 1955 Gipsy Queen (...thx, Holztaesche !) :thumbsup:

    Thanks the kind words. The pinball machine is a 1955 Gottlieb Gypsy Queen wood-rail :)

    I love pinballs, I just need to get Flash Gordon, I used to run that machine, I'd play for hours. I've also got home-owner versions of dome hockey and foosball. I used to get a handful of neighbors over and we'd be up half the night playing, it can get pretty intense when you add a little suds to the mix.

    I'm not sure where the Music Trek is boxed up autoreverser, I'm sure I still have it, I racked my brain if I had any other clones and forgot that one. Your package will be full with some others but when I asked approximate delivery time she said, "it could be awhile." My last packages from Europe took 4-6 weeks.
