    Thanks for all the compliments guys! It just pays to know people. The guys that work for me did all the framing, drywall, paint, and tile. My father-in-law did all the can lighting and all the glass work was done on the side by another person. Most of the G1 stuff I had since I was a kid and kept the boxes too. I will be posting box pics too. I've been playing pinball tournaments since I was just out of high school in 91. I played my first world's tourney in 92 and got second place in the highest division. I went on to win 2nd place the next 2 years. I was the youngest person to do this well. Some of the games in my collection I've won in tourneys along with trips and money. The money prizes are nothing like the winnings you get from say a video game championship today, tens of thousands. Living in Chicago where pinballs are made, I got to play games on test in arcades before they were released. So I have strong ties to the programmers and designers. Unfortunately there is only one pinball manufacturer today where their were 5 back in the day. There was going to be a Transformer pinball based off the new movie but late last year a whole bunch of employees got laid off and now the idea got scrapped. Tournaments are still going strong today but I don't know what the future holds for new games.

    The room is definitely a kids' dream realized. The best part is that it is in the center of the house so it's sealed up like fort knox! ;D

    Can't wait to go back

    Here are some box pics.

    G1 - Had most of these boxes since I was a kid. Still looking for Targetmaster Scourge and Cyclonus boxes.
