A trio of gentlemen were sent down for growing cannabis in a nuclear shelter out west a month or so ago:

Anyway, my mate Dave who claims to know about this says that one of them was a pinball and arcade machine collector, and his collection was seized by the police as proceeds of crime or something.

Anyway, Dave reckons his collection is being auctioned off by Wilsons Auctions at some point in the near future. Anyone know any more details about this?

some decent modles there, not everything is down and on display yet.
Got into the auction viewing room also but only after i promised not to take any pics

Only 2 pins there so far bttf and baby pacman. a few arcade machines also, Space ace and dragons lair looked particularly fresh. The amp in space ace had been replaced with a more modern one. Not sure if anything works yet. heading back next week to give them a once over.

Been told the bttf works fine and the revenge from mars doesnt (its not there yet) but we will see.
Some of the other arcade games look well used but a few look in decent order, tron looks decent. will see when we get power i guess
