I had a friend that I grew up with who is now deceased, his name was Neal. Neal was the ultimate pinball wizard and never met a video game that he couldn't beat. He would have loved that game...
What a beautiful game for sure. Have almost pulled the trigger on this one several times. Your game room is epic man, hands down epic! Enjoy your new game!
Arrives Fedex Freight tomorrow from Stern!!! Absolutely sick how Stern puts old games back on the production line!!!! Best part, deposit was placed before price increase and they are honoring the old price!!! Phenomenal
I totally agree!!! How cool right? It makes it to where its no big deal if you don't get it at launch, just hang tight and let them work out any bugs and boom!!! Anyone can just get it in a year or two?! Congrats on yours!
Awesome unboxing. Love watching new pins being unboxed and fired up for the first time. I have had two new pins delivered this year and looking forward to adding another to the lineup next year in 2022. Enjoy your game. Congrats
Thank you! I’m totally with you, unboxing a new game is the best! We just unboxed a GnR LE last night so I’ll be posting that very soon! Enjoy your games and share YOUR unboxing video, definitely want to check that out!!
And IRON MAIDEN was my first concert experience back in '87 when I was 17. On there somewhere in time tour with WAYSTED opening up for them. Truly an awesome experience.
@@shanesrandompinballunivers6180 : That was the same tour I saw Maiden for the first time as well. It was held at the Cow Palace in Daly City, CA (March 21, 1985) and Twisted Sister was booed off the stage! What were they thinking??? Iron Maiden doesn't need an opening act! Great song selection btw!
This made me laugh because I was dragged to that Maiden tour in ‘87 (LA, Fabulous Forum), no offense (not my style), and RUSH was MY first concert: 1983 @ the Long Beach Arena, Signals tour w Golden Earring opening. 😅 To see our teenage bands now in OUR pins is awesome but makes me feel like more of a fossil. 😣😄🤷♂️
Had a chance to play IRON MAIDEN DEADPOOL AC/DC STAR WARS ATTACK FROM MARS and MEDIEVAL MADNESS. All premiums and brand new machines. And if I could afford any of them. Definitely would be getting some. And RUSH GODZILLA and CACTUS CANYON it's definitely I my want to play list. Hopefully one day.
Nice! I usually always go with the Premium, best value IMO. The LE's however have greater resale value but its almost impossible to get one these days sadly. However I do have a RUSH LE coming in either next week or the following week so please check out that unboxing video! I got lucky and found one and since RUSH is one of my all time favorite bands, I had to have it! Broke the bank!
I totally understand, this hobby has gotten out of control and to a level that is keeping the casual player and collector from buying the machines they love
Want! Only thing is was about to order Pro now looking and trying to justify Premium. Artwork is amazing and extra gameplay features and sculptures… idk but I think artwork alone is calling me to buy the Premium
Well Tim, I totally hear you, with todays prices the Pro always seems like the best way to go for me, but this game(I know, all games right?LOL!!) really needs the Premium if possible! Good luck with the new game either way!
But my question.. It's a shooting Lane.. not as a big deal as the playfield.. So sorry no shade.. it just confused the hell out of me.. and triggered my OCD.. awesome machine though.. being an IRON MAIDEN fan..
Not shade at all! It’s a good question! If you notice when buying a used game, most sellers will take a picture of the shooting lane because usually they want you to see how nice or beat up it is. The ball shoots with such force into a tight spot which causes damage to the grove that the shooter lane has. Most games from the 80’s and 90’s have so much damage in this grove because everyone neglected to protect that area. I’m guess this is because it’s not out in the open with beautiful artwork on it so everyone kind of ignored it. I bought a brand new Mando not too long ago and didn’t put anything on the shooter lane right away and the grove started denting after only a few weeks of play! So I guess the grove or indentation for the ball inside the shooter lane would be the biggest reason and also manufacturers these days are either using softer wood or cutting corners in the curing process? I will say that CGC playfields are done so much better. My Monster Bash got away without any protection for months and there wasn’t a hint of wear
@@shanesrandompinballunivers6180 - It's kind of sad to watch them price themselves out of SO many people's budget.. At this rate, most will never be able to afford their own machine!
@@Bunjamin27 Oh man, its starting to price all of us out. I don't know how much longer I can hang in there either and I'm sad because its a hobby I've loved for so many years. Even the used games are beyond affordable. Sucks for sure
