TNT Amusements Inc. videos

I really enjoy watching these videos on YouTube and thought I would try to post whenever they come out with new ones, they usually cover repairing/selling pinball tables and old arcade games:

#1379 Revenge from Mars and Speak Easy

I like a lot of the earlier vids where Todd explains the rules and how to play the pins.

I like a lot of the earlier vids where Todd explains the rules and how to play the pins.

Yeah, his first videos were how to play various tables, don't think he got too many views until he changed it to his current format.

 

[Kolchak357]

They are all pretty good. I even like some of the video game ones (if it’s an arcade game I played in 80’s).

#1380 video is up, but covers mostly arcade machines Gyruss, Stargate, Pole Position and Rampage

I really enjoy his videos. What I really like is that he doesn't pull his punches. If he doesn't like something, he won't hide the fact. I like that up front honesty.

Wasted a lot of quarters on Stargate and Pole Position way back when. Stargate/Defender was a really tough game imo.

So I start posting videos for TNT and they hardly mention pinball tables
Here is video #1381 Super Sprint

They do mention Taxi and Pirates of the Caribbean(Stern) at the end, so possible video on them later.

The Blkthorne jinx. Start a thread on my property taxes. I’d like them to disappear as well.

Video #1383 has arrived, has rare Astro table called Black Sheep Squadron around the 21 minute mark, plus some video of the SF II table and home Fireball! table.

Apparently I just forgot to post the link.

[Kolchak357]

I think the link didn’t show. So, here you go. Don’t recall ever bumping into a Black Sheep Squadron. I remember the TV show though.

Video #1385 is up, Monte Carlo is the lone pinball table in the video. Video #1384 was just a tour of Randyland.

I saw Todd at Pinfest. So I’m guessing he will post a vid from there at some point.

I hate watching this guy's videos because he brags about changing *some* of the lamps to LED and doing basic things like cleaning and replacing batteries. Also he vandalizes the machines with stickers with his logo on them right in the middle of the apron... WTF dude.

 

[Blkthorne]

Video #1387 is up and has the arcade game Blasteroids and the pinball table Slugfest:

Upcoming videos should be of Pinfest in PA.

He is a salesman first and foremost.
I've also heard and read about some questionable repairs and down right shoddy workmanship - now, keeping it cheap brings down the price of the table and keeps his staff with a job.

Personally I would never buy a refurbished pinball game from him...
But he does seem like a nice fellow in general and I've enjoyed some of his videos in the past; it is hard keeping a company in such a niche market going.

What I really like is that he doesn't pull his punches. If he doesn't like something, he won't hide the fact.

Neither do his employees. They really tear into him or the game he's talking about sometimes. It's pretty funny.

His old understanding pinball series are probably my favorite ones, though.

Video #1388 is up with Sinbad, Bally Star Trek, Bank-A-Ball EM, Hoops and Stern's Pirates of the Carribean for pinball tables.
