Deadflip streams setup of four vintage pins, all power on successfully despite shipping damage.
All four machines (Transporter, Jungle Lord, Riverboat Gambler, Airborne) arrived with heads unstrapped in the back of a truck
high confidence · Jack explains: 'all these games were flat on their bellies in the back of a truck okay, with none of the heads strapped down'
Jungle Lord's head wires were never disconnected during shipping, causing potential damage
high confidence · Jack describes the packing issue: 'whoever patched this game... They never disconnected the wire, so they removed the head, then just laid it down, and then that was that. And the wires are still attached.'
Airborne's backglass shattered during transport
high confidence · Intro: 'We discovered that the glass for the back glass of Airborne shattered in there'
Airborne has a broken left lift ramp that stops balls from going up it
high confidence · Jack notes: 'the left lift ramp is stopping any ball from going up it. But everything else seemed to be playing just fine'
Transporter features an extra ramp above the main playfield bowl
high confidence · Chat question answered: 'Is that an extra ramp in the Transporter? Yeah. That would be an extra Transporter ramp'
Jack is turning down multiple pinball machine acquisition requests due to space constraints
high confidence · Jack states: 'I have to turn down... I've already been turning down pins, unfortunately. Like, that list of games that I said that we were looking at and we mentioned the titles that we wanted, that isn't going to happen because these are here.'
Riverboat Gambler has 'cuckoo' ramp geometry that surprised Jack positively
high confidence · Jack: 'the wackiness of those ramps, I am sold' and 'the layout of that thing is cuckoo'
“We discovered that the glass for the back glass of Airborne shattered in there. It doesn't look like the translite too screwed up, but it definitely sucks.”
