The "Today I received" Thread

i reckon i can get 10 pins in there.should be fun.
Assuming you have an "other half" can we also assume that they are fully aware and consenting of your plans to put 10 pinball machines in their new extension? In my experience I tend to find soft furnishings, sideboards, cushions and dining tables tend to me preferred... ;)

haha,
there is no other half,just me.
my house has been paid for for 10yrs now so i thought what the hell,i might as well take a bit of money out and do something that i would like.it will take me a while to get 10 pins together but once it's built i can offer loan space until i buy more pins.
 
Make sure you keep in covered in that conservatory, pinballs don't like strong sunshine and heat.
Great pinball SS, Enjoy.
 
Had a few different parcels turn up at the same time today :D First up is something you don't see much, a new set of Banzai Run plastics :eek: Big thanks to @aaronhicksuk for putting me onto these :thumbs:

And then a load of bits to tart up my Avatar with :) There's some half moon cab protectors, blue B/W style pop bumper caps with blue LEDs (the factory ones in Avatar are the best looking things), a load of LEDs for the inserts, flashers and GI (inc some Comet Ice Blue) and finally an LEDOCD board so that I don't give myself a seizure :D

Did they come in a white plastic packet sealed with a CPR label?

No mate, they came as they are in the pics. Taped to either side of a piece of black card and then wrapped in cling film. That lot was then sandwiched between two pieces of card and taped up. They do look good, I'm well pleased with them :thumbs:
 
Chris dropped this off last week took me a few days to sort the week shooter out and a dodgy diode was creating havoc launching too many balls into the shooter lane all set up now and working great

Update - Installed ! Good instructions, simple to install and VERY impressed. Wow - what a transformation. The colours fading in and out are spot on for that onstage look :D
 
Tell the truth. You bought that for yourself.
I can just see you trying to squeeze into it.

Seriously, lucky lad with a terrific Dad.

All ready to be fitted tonight. Was going to go with ElectroLuminescent Paper to light these but at £60 per piece of the size required thought I'd go with a cheaper option.

Have also received the creeping death internal side and speaker panel decals, but apparently I'm not allowed to fit them yet as it's part of my Christmas present
