Should I sell my ij4 and buy a nib st

[carl lawrence]

Had my ij4 now a couple of years! And said to myself it is a keeper!!

Had it on loan and then thought I we'll sell it!

Now got it back ,and it is the only machine I am playing ....wtf!!!

Ps my over machines are... Gorgar, diner (wife plays) TAF STTNG

 

[replicas]

In answer to the title question, ............Yes.

 

[carl lawrence]

For me it's a simple but good game !!
But a star trak pro ,o I want one so bad!!
Just can not understand why I am finding it had to but it up for sale again!

 

[Chris P]

I think every pinhead should treat them self to at least once in a life time for a new in box pinball machine, Star Trek is a very good choice too.

 

[skweek]

I think the question is do you want one ramp or three?

 

[replicas]

Three all day long.

 

[carl lawrence]

STTNG has three.

But I do like the ark magnet on ij4

 

[cooldan]

Carl you clearly like your IJ4 so my advice would be to not sell it.

 

[carl lawrence]

I no,but there is a little pressure by one of my sons.........!

+ I keep on here the words in my head "you can't take it with you!!!!"

Or is it Benjamin playing on the TAF !

 

[BloodyCactus]

maybe wait and see what sterns next title is? i find the new ST kinda boring, the modes feel all the same.

 

[carl lawrence]

Had the ST at my house ,(on loan from pinball heaven, many thanks Phil) ,when I held a league meet this year!!

It looked pretty awesome next to the over machines + I am a bit of a treky!!

 

[RGV]

If you're playing IJ then why not move on one you're no longer playing like the STTNG or TAF?

 

[Jumbosinbad360]

I would chew my left arm off for a ST..

 

[replicas]

I would chew my left arm off for a ST..

And how the hell are you going to play the machine after that?

 

[Jumbosinbad360]

With difficulty..

 

[carl lawrence]

TAF was my 40th birthday present ,plus to good to let go!

Sttng has a nice colour dmd in it,and extra speech, plus I am a trekky fan

Diner I was thinking to move on ,but then the wife stepped in ,so that one is a keeper

Ij4 love the films.....o my god ,o my god is he nuts !!

 

[Moonraker]

Easy. Buy ST and when you've had enough of it buy another IJ4...

 

[skweek]

And how the hell are you going to play the machine after that?

Well. some of us practice with one hand behind our backs or play split flipper with our mates!

 

[skweek]

And if it's a Steve Ritchie game you only need one hand to do the loops.

 

[cooldan]

Oooh controversial

 

[chris b]

yes defo buy a star trek I had a pro for a while and I think its got to be the best value for money stern pin ever made great game
I now have the le but the pro is just as good to play as the le

 

[JMP]

But a star trek pro , I want one so bad!!

Carl, see your PM.

 

[lukewells]

Carl, see your PM.

 

[carl lawrence]

Sorry guys been of line for a bit ( personal reasons)

Pm now sent

 

[carl lawrence]

Ok ok!!

Yes I am going to try and sell my very very much loved ij4 ,

I just hope I will not regret it. ,!!

 

[carl lawrence]

Well I may have to pull the sale of my ij4 ,becouse sum lovely chap just ran in the back of my car ,not happy

So now car hunting

 

[JMP]

Hit and run? If not, it's their fault, no quibble about it on a rear shunt.

 

[carl lawrence]

No
I was in a line of standing traffic when I recieved the shunt.

Thing is, i had the old girl for over12 year !! Best car I ever had!
Prob worth about the same price of a medusa!!
Lol

 

[JMP]

Then it's the others drivers fault, clear as. Shame if it's written off an old fave though.... good luck with the search.
