To anyone who has $2,250 lying around

http://www.thepinballcompany.com/ind...FQZnZQodOWS7mA

I always wanted to get a pinball machine and this would probably be near the top of the list. Too bad I'm a bum who lacks any sort of funds whatsoever.

Anymore then 400 for any old arcade machine is a rip off.

Data East made a TMNT pinball machine? This is the first I've heard of it.

It isn't an arcade machine, its a pinball machine. There's a big difference in price.

I just recently saw that machine at a truck stop in Indiana. I really like the drawing by Kevin Eastman right about where the paddles are.

Those aren't too uncommon on eBay. $2,250 would definitely be on the high end of the price range, though.

I do have the intention of owning one of those if I ever end up living someplace that's big enough to hold it. Unfortunately, that's not gonna happen anytime soon.

I remember that machine, I always remember it had the original 1988 turtles action figures in it, which I thought was cool for whatever reason. I can't tell if that one has the figures or not. You'd think for 2 grand they'd have more than stock photos.

Do you remember what town and truck stop it was. I may go check it out if it is anywhere near me.

Marty that is my favorite quote from my second favorite movie (your sig).

I say that quite a bit when I'm driving with my friends and they all just think I'm lame.

Doesn't matter I've still seen that exact same machine on Ebay 500 or less.

Uuuuh, that looks nice. It could be a blast to have, but I neither have the room nor the money for it.

But the thought alone
