I own an old Fireball machine that I bought when I was 12 years old and a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles machine. I used to have a unique machine that I think was called two towers or something like that and you could "fire" the pinball from a cannon onto the back-board and play a mini game on the back-board. It was totally trashed however in the Northridge, CA earthquake. There seems to be an Orb - pinball connection going on! John Wintemute

That was it. I loved that game. I thought it was very unique for its age. I would love to try and find a replacement one and a "Twilight Zone" machine also. I better stop spending so much on CDs and DVDs and start saving.

Doh! Just sold my Twilight Zone... Will be appearing up in Ping Time on State Street (Brian Frick's neck of the woods) soon. Also haven't heard from Andrew Krieg about this subject either... I was at his place about 2-3 years ago and fixed his Star Trek TNG pin in exchange for some KLF bootlegs. Gavin __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
