Okay, what in the HECK is going on?

[luckydog]

It sure is a pristine machine, looks like new.

It sounds like a guy with a white beard was involved in this somehow

[Tony Junior]

Open the damn thing Tony!!! Let us all take a peek and see what this is all about!!!!!

I no nothing about this either Tony. Had I known about it, I'd have donated to the cause!!!

It sure is an awesome feeling when someone surprises you like that isn't it??

To the person or persons that did this, I thank you!!! You've made my friend Tony VERY VERY HAPPY!!!! The people on this site are the best!!!

You know exactly how I feel, especialy after getting that Spin Luck! Yes, the people here ARE the best!

Awwwe, c'mon Tony Junior, the suspense is killing me!
What'd you get?

One helluva supprise, Le!

Definately does not look like the box I shipped the token cups in. Not unless the elves screwed up again.

That thought crossed my mind too Devon, but it did have my name on it!

Good luck Tony! Let us know when you can...

Thanks, Pau! Now you know the rest of the story!

[Tony Junior]

This was certainly the morning for opening presents. First dattia and then you. I opened my own box from LP and was surprized to pull out a "Bang Dash". Perhaps you've received my "Spin Luck"?

Just Kidding. I'm unwrapping my own SL as I'm typing this. Isn't Christmas wonderful? This forum is just crawling with elves.

Now Dishpan, I didn't need that! But ain't she purty!

Don't DO that to old, stressed-out, fat people!!!

Look who's talking!

[Eddie]

By Million God Its a miracle! Congrats on the Machine!
Awsome machine for an awsome guy. Now hurry up and take vids

You guys on Pachitalk are the best!

[Tony Junior]

The heck with what's in that box, TJ...

Tell me more about that "cute little girl in a yellow and red outfit"!!!

She was a little, and I mean little doll!

Unfortunately, I didn't have my camera handy.

I just found out that my Giant Seven arrived at my door a few minutes ago, I think I might have to skip out of work early to unwrap it.

Yes... today seems to be early Christmas for many of us.. I for one am waiting to see what surprise you got Tony.... on the edge of my seat as I post....


Any updates.... has the giant present been unveiled yet....

Way to go DH! Early Christmas...YES!

Maybe you ordered it one night while Sleepwalking And yes tell us more about the DHL Girl

I don't THINK I did! And like I said, she was a doll! (And me with my camera in its case. )

WOW

Amen, Doug, amen!

[Tony Junior]

That is one really beautiful machine.

It really is! And I've hardly had a chance to play it yet...too busy answering here!

Congrats Tony. Great looking machine!!!

Thanks H2O! It really is a beauty!

Good for you, Tony! Enjoy. Will be looking forward to some videos...

Just as soon as I can! But right now I need to go play it some!

[Tony Junior]

How wonderful for you TJ. I got an inkling that this was going to happen...there were clues in the Pachi Blowout Thread, but I thought I'd wait it out and see It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

You did get an inkling in the thread?! Man, I read, and still read it and got no hint! I'd make a lousy detective!

Glad to see it was the bang bang dash i to was upset for logic when it was reported smashed such a great machien and him needing the cash ect

and also that it has found such a great home with you



hmmm me thinks devospeed has a one trak mind "lovely machine toney now send me a picture of ya belly " do you have pictures of other members bellys

Man, I was upset too, Doc!

Devon...

It IS pristine, Lucky!
And I gotta wonder too!

By Million God Its a miracle! Congrats on the Machine!

You guys on Pachitalk are the best!

I'm beginning to wonder about that Million God!
The people here ARE the very best!

[Scorp]

WOW!! What an awesome thing to do!! You guys are very kind folks.

Enjoy your new machine

[musky]

Nice things happen to nice people Tony.

[dishpan]

Amen!

The quality here doesn't come close to the vids you guys do for us... but this might tide some over until TJ gets the chance.

BY THE WAY... there's a vent port from a subwoofer right below the stop buttons. When this thing gets pumping it's beat in a bonus, you can feel the air in your face!!! I've NEVER seen anything like THAT.

This is one awesome community/family!

Thanks Musky! I really don't know what to say!

Great find on that video, LP! Both Kyle and I were wondering what that vent did, now I know!

Quick update: I was just playing it, down to 2 tokens on my second fifty. I grabbed 7 as it turned out, which gave me 9, enough for 3 spins, and was going to quit for the evening. I haven't fed the kids yet, and they sure are letting me know!

Anyway, I hit 12, a couple of free spins, then I hit 777! I had to turn it off so I could fix supper for the kids, and grab something for me too. I'm not going to turn it back on until Wednesday, my next day off, so I can video it! Besides, I have to get up about 5am for work.

I simply cannot thank everyone enough! God Bless you all!

[clau]

Another awesome example of the GREAT people on this forum!!

Enjoy the machine Tony!!

[Lazarus]

Well It's good to see a great machine go to a great person! Surprises are good when they come in big boxes. Have fun on your next day off TJ.

[grommit]

What a fantasic thread to read and a good deed done, my faith in pachipeople/humankindness is re-kindled, I never gave up believing in Santa and after 51 years on this planet , you guys have reaffermed my beliefs.... real careing friendship, AND WHAT A TASTY MACHINE..... congrats to Tony Junior

[Lddrizzt]

This is my favorite pachislo Tony! You are gonna love it.
I think you and I are the only ones that have this machine anymore. There are a couple more out there but I haven't heard about them in a loooong time.
Kinda puts a new spin on the rarity of the spin luck...

[Tanuki]

Wow, a sweet story to go along with a suuuWEEET machine. This place rocks!

[slothappy144]

This is some great stuff being done by better people, I was flim flammed, I have been had, dummied up, I was volunteering to help fix a perfectly good machine! it was 'broken' as a clever cover story. I thought something was amiss when LP had given up on it, I can't believe it in retrospect. I can't believe I fell for it!
Congrats TJ you have a fine machine there and obviously more importantly some good friends.

[LeWood]

Congrats Tony Junior... What a day.. .. Glad you had a Big Bang Dash of a day!!
