Northern Lights at Play Expo 2013

[kimkom]

Wow! Just back from a fantastic weekend show at Play Expo in Manchester. Lot's of great pinball machines and retro arcade games on show.

Great to see hundreds of pinball's lined up next to hundreds of retro video games like Robotron, Defender and Stargate etc.

Lots of new Sterns on show too including the new Star Trek, which I really enjoyed playing. Thanks to Phil at Pinball Heaven for getting that to the show.

Also, a massive thank you to the main organizers at Northern Lights and all the contributors. You guys know how to put on a show!

Cheers

That Gottlieb Title Fight looks great (especially the top of the playfield). Never saw that pin before. How did it play?

Unfortunately the mini playfield left flipper was sticky but still working, but that aside it played great. Really good flow to the shots.

There were quite a few Gottlieb's inc 2 HH's, 1812, and my favourite a Tx-sector.

But more importantly, TX-Sector. The disco pinball dimension beckons! I LOVE YOU, TRANSPHASER!

Noticed this yesterday...

Quote from the website... http://www.playexpo.net

"You now have not one but TWO chances to PLAY in 2014! The UK's favourite Arcade, Indie & Retro Gaming Expo returns to its spiritual home at the Norbreck Castle Exhibition Centre in Blackpool on 3/4 May 2014."

Just emailed Northern Lights pinball - and got a reply back saying their attendance at the Blackpool show is up for discussion at their next meet in a few weeks.
Fingers crossed - 2 off NW UK Pinball expo's for 2014?
