The Pinball Circus (Bally 1994) - the famous vertical pinball; only 2 produced.  I have never seen it, much less played it.2. The Shadow (Bally 1994) - a classic at the very top level of fun-to-play tables; didn't get a chance to play as much as I wanted to in real life, having access to only one machine in 1995 (that I still played a hundred times)3. Johnny Mnenomic (Williams 1995) - I only briefly saw this machine once in my hometown in the 1990s before the glove broke and it was shipped away.  I have played it several times at pinball shows and loved it.4. Corvette (Bally 1994) - a minor classic that I played quite a bit but not enough.5. Demolition Man (Williams 1994) - unlike the top 4, DM was all over my hometown and I played it lots.  I remember it having a particularly dazzling dot show.Honorable mention: Indiana Jones, Jack*Bot, Judge Dredd, Indy 500, and Road Show.These are all from the Golden Age of pinball: WMS 1990-1999.  There are many machines from other eras and manufacturers that I'd like to play on TPA, but the Golden Age tables are so many times better than them that it would be unfair to list anything else.</blockquote>
