Next room upstairs:

Poor Tommy, all alone in the corner:

Those EMs didn't like him that much, as it seems:

But maybe they're just being mean

to poor Tommy.


That's just a small part of all the pins that were on display. It was a truly amazing day for me there today. I may post some more pics if anyone is interested, but these were the better ones sharpnes-wise. It's not that easy to take good photos of pins, at least not for Ms Bonzo and me...

Thanks for sharing Bonzo. If you got more pics, yes please. I could look at them all day.

Damn - I'm going to Ruhr this October. I'd be very anxious to visit this place, but "unfortunately" I'm busy elsewhere

Great pics!

Awesome pics, those old tables are fascinating. Will they let you play whatever you want?

 

[Bonzo]

Almost everything, Vyrastas. Apart from those really ancient tables in the first post, everything that is displayed and in working condition can be played. No free play, though. Entry fee is €5, and with that you get 5 Deutsche Mark (our old currency before the Euro) with every play on every table being 1 DM. During your stay you can always get 2 DM for 1 Euro (roughly the actual exchange rate) in the lobby.

What a great collection. Shame to see so many service dots on the displays. These guys must be up against it maintaining all these. Also disappointing to see that the three-bank drops on Back To The Future were broken (one missing). No lock means you're gonna have a bad time...

Why aren't you still there? I wouldnt be able to leave. Looks like some great tables and a great time!
