## Transcript

Since today is James Bond day, it seems only fitting that I came across a random pinball machine sighting in a home that looks like it's owned by a Bond Villain. This TRON- Legaxy-inspired Dallas Texas home is currently on sale for just under $4 million dollars. I found three rock theme Stern pinball machines in the pictures on the listing, Iron Maiden (with what looks like either pink or lavender powder coating), AC/DC and KISS.

Whenever I go through the pictures of one of these crazy mansions, I always go nuts when I see a pinball machine or a home arcade lol.
