Anyone got one of these for sale before I look into buying one from America?

Thanks
 
Are those the drink holders for the pinball?

Seem to think I saw some on Pinballmanias stand?
 
I got a couple of these off, I'm pretty sure, PinballMania at NLP just gone (Not my pic, but they're definitely these ones)

I love em - They take pint glasses and beer bottles equally well, due to the dimpling at the bottom creating a snug fit for either beverage type, and the slot down the side allows my huge mugs of tea to also be accommodated :). They also fit nicely in between my side-by-side machines with an inch or two to spare, even though one of them's a widebody.

Think they were around £12.50 each. IMO they're well built and not flimsy at all - I'm definitely happy with mine.

Wouldn't mind one of those myself, kicked over a few cups of coffee in my time!
 
Maybe a silly question.... but what happens when you do a monster slap save?

I've not had any spillages as yet and while I'm happy I wouldn't throw a bottle out of the holder with a bit of heavy nudging I'm equally sure the laws of physics will still apply to any liquids in containers using these, so I wouldn't put a full to the brim pint in one then proceed to throw the machine around :)

I've tilted a machine out trying to free a trapped ball and not spilt anything, but I don't know the upper limits of brutality people will apply to move an outlane from the path of a ball so ymmv depending on your playstyle I guess...

Note - I've mounted mine round the side of my machines as its more out of the way - You can mount them round front if you want, but you'll need to be more careful of appendages if you do.
 
Yep, Andy (Pinballmaina) has them for sale. Work out if you want a left hand or a right hand.
