Well I can finally join this club now:NBA Fastbreak (Bally 1997)Lord of the Rings (Stern 2003)LOTR is coming in a couple of weeks, NBA is in the house. I never thought I would own tables, but when I played at last year's Dutch Pinball Open, I came across this nice NBA fastbreak. Making a comment to another player that I liked the table, he said it was for sale, and here we are.... The ruleset is not that deep but play is really satisfying when you hit all those combo shots in a row. The scoring is innovative in the sense that you don't score millions but baskets, so a good score would be around 100-150 for a game. I love the commentary on your gameplay, it's a bit taunting when you stink it up, but when you get it going, the table goes wild with you as all good Bally and Williams tables do. Best score up until now is 275 and 2 rings. Still some way to go to beat the factory Grand Champion Score of 354.LOTR has been one of my favorite tables all along, and I can't believe I get to own one now! I'm a big Tolkien geek and also love the movies. The table itself features a deep ruleset and one of the most difficult Wizard Modes to reach: Valinor Multiball.After this there's still a wishlist (Indy '93 for example) but money and place to put the tables is going to be a tough consideration.For now I'm gonna enjoy those two!
