Also have a few new loaners here, BDK, POTC and MET premium ( TWD temp trade for the latter ).

Only show I got to was the awesome play expo/nlp, fantastic weekend. Got to special when lit twice and a few league meets as well as hosting one myself. Hopefully we'll have a UKPP next year.
Here's to an even more enjoyable pinball journey through 2017. Happy New Year pinheads everywhere :clap:

.... oh, and a Postman Pat kiddy ride


Went to NLP (took 7, came back with 8) ... that was the only show as I had to cancel the Newcastle one at the last minute :(

Profited 0, 0, 50, 50, 100, 300, 400 on some games sold; also lost 65, 100, 170, 300 on others. So overall almost freeplay, slightly ahead.

Did 5/6 Northern League rounds (missed one as it clashed with baby due date)
Bookended the year with 2 good UKCS rounds (the rest were crap) although qualified for finals again :)

Highlight of the year was of course NLP and also @Wizcat getting into the Pinburgh A division rankings, top man! :thumbs: Finally great job to @strobey for his streaming setup
 
In: none, out: none.

Pinburgh and a chance to see and play against some of the best was a highlight for me. Really looking forward to it again in 2017. Doubly so since I saw @Moonraker's name on the list, along with a good few other UK peeps in the reserves list (Craig and so on). Highly unlikely I'll get so lucky to be in the A division again, but will be great to see some top UK players.
 
Busy year !

Coming when restored.. TZ

OUT...

LOTR to make room for the Hobbit (and due to similar theme) - not really keen on the selling thing

Not much planned for this year, other than improving the quality of those I have with ColourDMD, Pinsound, new rails where needed, an occasionally LED OCD board, Mirror Blades, LED improvements, Speaker upgrades etc. Over half of the tables are pretty much as good as they can get already. May rotate a couple of tables but majority of those I have are keepers.

I'm not sure if I mentioned it before (#mentions it every chance he gets) but this year I completed my long term goal/ bally/wms widebody/superpin collection with the addition of JD and Popeye. Pictured here from left to right in order of release...

Also in
ST25
Rfm
Acdc
Cftbl
WWF RR ooooohhhhhhhh yyyeeeaaaaaaaaaaah (although not quite in yet but deal made in 16)

Out FT
Acdc

Friends made
Several. There is no other hobby I know of where people lend other people they have never met before stuff worth thousands of pounds. It's ridiculous but true. People here hire vans, load up tens of thousands of pounds worth of their prized possessions, just to set them up for hundreds of total strangers to enjoy. I hope to meet more of you this year, you total bunch of nutters!!
 
Great thread guys, sadly I need a room the size of @chris b and then I could have more but my little man cave has changed completely

In
TAF - really nice example (gone are the good old days where you could pick one up for £1k sadly)
IJ (thanks @stoptap :thumbs:)
SM (I'm feeling the spidey love at the moment, great game)

Out
T2
LW3
DE Star Wars

There's room for one more if I don't do any restorations but I don't think that's going to happen :eek: thinking about MB, ACDC, Tron, GB, TWD..... Oh who am I kidding the list of wanted goes on and on and on:rofl:

Just as I said last year " holy crap Pete! " :). You are one busy dude, and that doesn't include whatever it is you do with the Judo club.
 
In:
TAF
Flintstones
LOTR (not actually here yet but bought in 2016 so it sort of counts.)

Out:
LW3 (on loan to a mate, so I still get to play at his)

Also started playing in the league this year met loads of nice people who made me and phoebe feel really welcome straight away. And entered a few comps (which I did really badly in!)
 
This hobby slowed down for me in 2016, although still quite a few games passed through my collection:

In and out: The Rolling Stones, TZ, POTC, Big Guns, Avatar

Out: Fish Tales, Medieval Madness (although I can still get to play my old game), Future Spa and AFM.

Just one machine left now which is BK2K. I probably will be getting out of pinball ownership for a while in 2017...
 
Making this list I realise I've currently got one game fewer than I had on 1st Jan 2016. My New Years resolution is therefore to gain at least one game this year! Not sure where I'll put it though.....

In:

Sharkeys Shootout (oh well, you live and learn)
Atlantis (hooray!!!)
Road Kings (nice.....)

Out:

Road Kings (....but not quite a keeper)
Spectrum (reluctant sale, space and money requirements)
Pac Man (as above)
Vector (as above again)
