Tour of my friend Dave Astill's amazing pinball machine collection! A couple one of a kind pins!!!

[@marcobucci]

Please tell Dave that I now own his old Addam’s Family! He sold it to someone, who then sold it to my buddy Jacob, who then had it at home, as well as on location out in Whitby for awhile. As of today it’s in my collection :)

[@simonwax7575]

Another great tour thanks so much to you all. Some seriously impressive machines, especially the Rush before Rush and the AC/DC before AC/DC!

[@pinballshenanigans]

Haha yes totally. Glad you enjoyed the tour 🤘

[@slob5041]

The was the cool ranch version of the getaway, super neat!

[@GoSolarPlz]

Like the AC DC machine.

[@pinballshenanigans]

Yaman!

[@paulgorcey5914]

So many of these guys in pinball seem like they're so chill and talented. Bless 'em all for keeping these robots alive for us.

[@pinballshenanigans]

Yaman for sure! Dave has been doing this for decades :)

[@Hchris101]

Very cool

[@TampaTec]

One of a kind collection. I have the Getaway, I knew right away that layout, very cool. 👍 New Stern 2022 Rush pin plays similar with upper flipper on the right side.

[@pinballshenanigans]

Nice! I got to play Rush recently. Pretty sweet game!

[@memyopinionsche6610]

That RUSH Pinball machine so cool.

[@pinballshenanigans]

Ain't it!!!!

[@patrickmcphee770]

This was cool. Thanks for sharing! He might want to rethink buying the new stern pinball machines. Not sure if you have seen the vid by pinball expert? He brings up a lot of good points.

[@pinballshenanigans]

Thanks! I dont know pinball expert. Sounds interesting!

[@ReubensLair]

Just found your channel love it! Fellow pinhead!!

[@pinballshenanigans]

[@pinballshenanigans]

Hey Ivan! Thanks!

[@philwilliams8328]

What's up with all of those moths(?) flying around!

[@pinballshenanigans]

My camera flash picks up dust, pretty annoying.

[@tonerotonero1375]

Impressive collection. The owner must be rich to afford all these in such perfect condition. Makes any pinball fan drool.

[@pinballshenanigans]

Great collection indeed!

[@tonerotonero1375]

@@pinballshenanigans is his wife acceptance factor high? Or is he single??? Nice house too.

[@pinballshenanigans]

Acceptance high!

[@andreweck2186]

I have never played Godzilla from 1998.

[@pinballshenanigans]

The Sega one! I had one. Only 500 made I think! Was awesome

[@randypullman1155]

Awesome! I find it impossible to believe that we may never see a Grease pinball machine.

[@pinballshenanigans]

Maybe a custom one!

[@vexomnight3079]

my life is meaningless in knowing that I will never own a Rush pin

[@pinballshenanigans]

Well Stern did just release it a few days ago! kzbin.info/www/bejne/foCbeZiGo6mkkMU

[@CentiZen]

I've been to Dave's place! He's a cool dude. You have no idea how Jealous I am of that RUSH pinball.

[@pinballshenanigans]

Pretty amazing eh!!

[@fredroman9463]

Speaking of South Park Pinball are you going to show us how much progress you have made on your South Park Pinball game? If so can you put a color DMD on your South Park Pinball game just like David's South Park Pinball game?

[@pinballshenanigans]

You will have to be in suspense :) for a bit!

[@808zhu]

You're a kind of pinball messiah. Pretty fascinating, actually.

[@andrewlee88]

I always wondered what was behind the rom upgrades that i get from Collingwood...!!

[@pinballshenanigans]

🙂👍

[@IsekaiApostle]

If I won the lottery I’d have the Ghostbusters LE and TMNT LE with their toppers of course.

[@pinballshenanigans]

Haha you and me both!! 👍

[@808zhu]

Did you ever get your car fixed?

[@pinballshenanigans]

Not yet lol. I go through about 2 liters of water everyday I drive. Every time I turn on my car my windshield still sprays for 10 seconds. Part should be in this week though LOL.

[@808zhu]

@@pinballshenanigans I'd be pretty unhappy with that guy, to say the least...

[@pinballshenanigans]

@@808zhu my back window does not roll down as far as it used to and sounds a little cranky as well. Car is clean but not without issues. He's going to at least pay for the wiper assembly but I don't think I'll be going back. Not like I get my car detailed on a regular basis anyways lol. That was my first time!

[@808zhu]

@@pinballshenanigans That's crazy man. I'd be asking this dude to fix EVERYTHING. Who details a fuckin car and THIS happens? What'd he do, power wash the interior? Geez.....

[@pinballshenanigans]

@@808zhu haha I know eh.

[@xaos2012]

Still wondering why pinball isn’t a bigger thing ? Besides it being a very expensive hobby

[@pinballshenanigans]

A couple super huge collections just dissolved as well which is sad for the hobby :(

[@TiltingT]

That Rush and AC/DC machines are sweet.. amazing collection! Thanks Dave for letting us have a look around!.. Brett and Cyborg produced more machines than Deeproot! LOL!... Metallica art was done by Dirty Donny.though.. I hooe thats who signed it instead of Zombie Yeti.. Just a bit of info I got from Donny.. he is currently working on art for another Stern game

[@pinballshenanigans]

LOL that is hilarious and totally true!!!!

[@808zhu]

Some of your friends have more pinball machines than there are on this entire island.

[@pinballshenanigans]

Haha crazyness eh!!

[@kirkin2006]

Rush is ok but they've destroyed a top ten classic coolest pinball ever made like Getaway.

[@McDoobles]

The games were already destroyed and the playfields were restored and repurposed for the Rush machines that were custom made in a garage. Same with the ACDC machine. AC/DC was the first attempt at making a custom pinball. The whole family pitched in like mom painting the cabinet, kids helping with the CAD design and the speaker grills (made in highschool machine shop class). Ripped the songs off my AC/DC live cd lol. Once that was done, work started on the dual Rush machines. Thousands of hours went into those three machines. Out of a house in the middle of nowhere in the early 2000s. Long story short, those games were destroyed long before being repurposed. 😊

[@ramairneon]

Christ, how do you NOT recognize that game used to be a getaway... :/

[@kristamcmillan8793]

Had a pinball restored by this gentleman and I must say I was/is not too damned impressed. That being said the seller told Dave to skimp on the restoration. Still to knowingly let a POS pass thru one's hands onto a unsuspecting buyer speaks volumes. Seller did attempt to right this wrong thru much badgering back and fourth to the point of nausea but still having headache's with the POS pin after paying a PREMIUM for what supposed to be a nice example. The pinball community is a very toxic one indeed.

[@pinballshenanigans]

Sorry to hear about your experience. Using a car analogy if I purchased a lemon I would definitely taking up my beef with the sales rep/owner and not their mechanic but either way it sounds like you did not get what you paid for.

[@mitchella2104]

Game was not restored by Dave. Just new rubber, leds and assembled on a tight budget. The owner/seller knew about the issues but wouldn't budget for dave to go any farther.

[@pinballshenanigans]

@@mitchella2104 ahh gotcha!

[@hellolove1576]

I say it's BS Dave is one of the good guys
