"I don't really want to sell but have to because I'm buying a Harry Potter", pick up a bargain price and I wish my self the best of luck with the sale, apparently "its a buyers market right now", hopefully it won't be "gone to ebay", I'm looking to have the "game sold, and will thank everyone", I am a "fantastic seller and great to deal with" reference on request , The price is the price regardless of mods, Price is firm or is it?, maybe "should fly out the door at that price, I'm surprised it hasn't sold yet, hang on I've only just listed it, this is a premium and is better than the pro, Free! rule book, feel free to try a "typical lowball chancer offer", not interested in "long drawn out back and forth over price by people with no intention of buying the game, " price won't drop due to martin arriving as he won't get the ferry. I will make "donation made to the forum", I might accept "any offers?" Looking forward to "Price policing", hopefully not too many "bump price drop" not sure but please lets have some "@user was after one of these, hopefully not "still available" for long, its a "great price for a great game" I haven't and won't "list game without a price"

Bingo!

I'm buying a Harry Potter, my kids dream theme, I only have space for one machine so my Hobbit needs to be sold.

This is a game for all, family friends like it its a theme and gameplay that seems to attract non pinball people. For the more seasoned player its deceptively complex. There roughly 35 modes, 4 wizard modes and a smaug multiball mode. The unofficial rule book is 40 pages ish long and is included. There a lot of depth with how modes stack and risk reward based upon the modes, to get the best out of it you need to start to understand the rules. For everyone else just bash the beast that pop up!

This is probably one of the most loaded machines I've seen, the amount of mechs and magnets is a lot and its super heavy, definitely the heaviest machine I've dealt with, got to be 180 kg + its heaver than star trek next generation.

It has had a lot of work done to it and is playing perfectly, you can see my shop log here:


Feel free to ask any questions.

It comes with the following:

- Every rubber including the hidden ones changed with colour matched Titans
- New colour matched pop bumber caps to blue
- LE sling axes with LE sling plastics
- Gold coin flipper bats
- From Pinsound - Super Skill Shot Shooter: Arkenstone Start Button
- From Pinsound - Super Skill Shot Shooter: The Ring Red
- Side Art blades
- Recently change pinsound balls
- New gold leg levellers
- Perfect play yellow leg casters
- Full set of cliffy fitted
- Green custom leg bolts with matching yellow
- Full set of plastics, some NOS, definitely NOS slings a few of them. One or two broken plastics, can't remember which, I changed all the plastics to NOS on the machine in the summer
- a boxed backglass - can't remember but some very slight damage in the bottom left
- full set of new stickers
- Various new spare parts, metal clips for the drop targets, nylon screws etc
- various old parts taken off the machine when I replaced them, see shop log.
- New right side decal - still in the tube
- other stuff i might have forgotten

I don't know the full history of this game but I'm assuming it was site operated at one point, however I have rebuilt most of the mechs and fully stripped the playfield, which you can see from the log, the number of plays is nonsense, it says 312 and 773 started ( i have a habit of reseting if I have a crap game), i doubt it had that low of plays based upon how it was before I restored it.

I can personally deliver this, for a contribution to the ferry I can combine with a family visit, we can discuss if your serious or it can be put on a pallet.

Happy to have a what's app video call to take you through it and show it playing etc.

Side right - Full - minor scratch on Bilbo Have a new decal for this if you decide to replace it, got it before I picked up the machine, when I saw the machine in person its minor and not worth the effort, but for the super fussy :)

Smaug mouth moves! it was common for it to break and it was broken, I rebuilt it !
 
if any one needs any more pictures or a specific picture let me know :)
 
Imagine a playfield swap on that, christ
yeh, surprisingly from pinball life you can get a NOS one, I was surprised its only $400, but you can see why. Ive never worked on a machine like it, they threw everything and the kitchen sink at it. I think Jersey jack as it was there second game where trying to make a point.
