It’s time to don the pink TuTu one more time. It seems that Bastard Cancer needs another reet good kicking, I know just the tutu touting tw@ to do it – moi!
Before I dive into detail, my thanks to Paul for allowing me to post this – cheers buddy!
I also plan to do ‘meathlon’ later this year (probably August), more details to follow nearer the time but it will involve, running, cycling along routes where I and others have lost loved ones as well as swimming down a river – all while wearing the pink TuTu of course…
But for now, I would like to offer up this freshly resurrected, Bally Sky Kings EM pinball machine by way of a 7 dayish auction that starts, NOW! that will end on Sunday 20th March 23:59:59. The winning bidder will then pay me and then I will pay 100% into a just Giving Fund that I will start a month or so later. I will post back on this thread the link so you can see that I will be true to my word.
The machine
Originally purchased as a non worker from a member on here about 5 years ago now I think, it had a pretty hard life before hand…
I have carried out an almost 100% metal work strip down tumbled and or polished. All contacts have been checked, cleaned, gapped and many parts replaced like coils, contacts, bumper rings, rubbers and lamps. The playfield has been professionally touched up (oy perv) oh okay when I say professionally I mean I did it
. Mylar has been installed under the bumpers and laid over all the repainted areas to prevent further damage. Those that have played any of the machines I have brought back know, I don’t muck about, they really do get a full monty. I even cleaned up the legs on this one, and I don’t normally bother with legs…

- It will be set to free vend, the coin door/mechs do not need to be relied upon to credit up.
- The back glass is minty, I have never seen a glass of this age in such great condition, I kid you not!
- In addition to the pinball machine, the winning bidder will receive a certificate, key ring with keys and a USB stick containing: -
- Schematics
- Instructions
- All refurb pics taken by me
- Rubber ring guide
