These pictures were taken on 11/19 (Sunday).

Go to my website: www.hsapinball.com

Click on "SHOWS" on the top icon bar and then pick "BBB 11/19".

As with most of the IPB tours over that last two months, these pictures are just different BBB machines in basically the same IPB warehouse. Games look great. This is my 3rd tour in the last 5 weeks. This time TOG was there working late.

Enjoy

Feb 2007 is an estimate based on what I saw 5 weeks ago and the progress on 11/19. Gene already said that it will not make Christmas but Feb 2007 is based on my calculation and asking a lot of questions. Do not hold PMI/IPB to that date but I feel that Feb 2007 is very attainable.

Trust me, I'm not assuming anything. Thanks for the calculations, though.

(Seriously, when I was there and counting everything, I ballparked the date as somewhere between Feb and April...so we're in the same neighborhood).

Thanks again!
Pete Mathis
Keep looking for 103...

Gene told me that he was pretty sure he was going to do Kingpin, but they have not announced it yet. I believe that he wants to figure out some key things before committing. The CPU board is definatly an issue, but I "Think" they have a plan for it. Something was said to me that wasn't said again so I'll leave it at that. The official word on the tape that I took was that it is NOT announced yet.

No Kingpin at IPB. I did play Mark Ritchie's machine a few years ago. I think BBB is a better game. Gene did say the price will be higher than BBB (approx $6500+).

Thanks for the pics.
Wow,I see BBB#11 in the pics.
Mine is #12.My heart stopped there for a second.
It's close.

Hey Pete,
Where in Michigan is # 103 going to be.
# 12 will be in Fennville. South of Holland.
That's at least 3 that I know of here in Mi.

Fennville? My brother and his wife used to live there...she used to be Asst. Principal and Athletic Director at the high school before they moved into Grand Rapids. So...I know the place well!

My BBB will be in Union City...a small town between Coldwater and Battle Creek. My buddy John Dayhuff (#67) will be getting one in B.C. My other buddy, Chip Ware, will be getting one sent to Grand Rapids.

So...looks like a lot of them are going to Michigan! (I wonder what state will own the most BBB's?)

Later!

I think there are a good number headed to Ohio .. three going to Cincinnati alone IIRC, so looks like our two states will have yet *another* thing to argue bragging rights over Wink

Larry,

If I'm not mistaken, the Cincy # is at least 4. Aside from you and me, Blaine said he had one along with a guy in Madeira whose name I didn't recognize.

Bernie

PS - I was at OSU/M*ch*g*n, exciting game, Wolverines gave them a fight, but a good outcome for the Buckeyes! Will be headed to Arizona, too.

I know of 5 games coming to GA for sure (including mine). I was surprized how many Pinheads there were in GA when I moved here. Wer even have our own mailing list/club.

Bernie,

I'd forgotten about Blaine.. I remembered the guy in Madiera though (pretty sure he's the fella who bought my TOTAN) .. he was #3 on my list after you and me. So do 4 games make Cincinnati the biggest BBB city? I wonder if anyone else here bought one... Barrington?
