Big Bang Bar

[Dave Bishop]

Well, there is a guy selling BBB parts on eBay.com
He had a set of NOS plastics from PMI. Starting bid $1400, I thought I was going to win them until...

 

[Paul]

Thats obscene!!!!

 

[Dave Bishop]

Tell me about it!
All my plastics are mint, with protectors but now gonna have to protect them in bullet proof stuff!

 

[replicas]

Why is no one looking into a 're run of both the machine and the parts?
I am sure Gene would jump back on the band wagon and get things moving once he gets wind of what people are paying for a plastic set FFS, it's a plastic set, what parallel universe have I entered.

 

[Dave Bishop]

You haven't seen anything yet... Take a look at what the other items finished at.
That's not including the set of target decals which I have won for £60. I can get white Capcom targets from AUS for $1 each so can make a set.

 

[Carl Spiby]

Even if I had a BBB I'd be afraid to play it at those prices

 

[Judge Dreads]

If there has ever been a better reason to remake a pinball machine this is it.

Where do I put my name down for one ?

Let me know when you find out.

 

[replicas]

Let me know when you find out.

Will do.
Reserve two places at the top of the list.

 

[Steve]

And me...

 

[replicas]

Well we are officially the first three in the queue.

 

[cooldan]

go on then, me too

 

[Calimori]

Looks like the cool kids have signed up so put my name on the list too.

 

[Paul]

And me

 

[Judge Dreads]

Seriously, how can we get this of the ground, there must be pinheads all over the world that would join our band of merry men on a BBB quest, I wonder how many names it would take for the remake guys to say, oh go on then, why not.

Cash waiting if you are reading this

 

[RudeDogg1]

I'm sure there's a thread on pinside about someone remaking it

 

[Dave Bishop]

I started the thread. On a mission to get me some plastics made!!

At 4k even I would put my name down for one. Who makes them? and where?

[cooldan]

Nobody yet

That's the trouble though. It wouldn't be 4k. If they are charging 6.5K for MMr then a BBBr would likely be even more expensive.

 

[Judge Dreads]

What was the RRP last time, thought it was circa 4k,......... 5k, 6k, still would have one over any NIB Stern.

 

[Fintan Stack]

I don't know about this one to be honest. I think the very thing that makes BBB such a special game is that there is such a small amount of them. Make another 2000 of them and it's going to lose a lot of it's charm isn't it?

 

[replicas]

Making more is going to loose value on the original machines but no charm will be lost.
The people with machines will not want a rerun but if it makes more parts more available and a dam sight cheaper then maybe it will make both sides happy.

 

[Judge Dreads]

I agree, no charm will be lost, theme is second to none for me at the moment and it looks awesome, would even part with my G.I to fund if necessary.
