The Hyperballs collection is about more than 30 years of pinball memories. The collection contains more than 50 pinball machines which are fully restored or in the best original condition. There is a strong focus on Bally and Williams machines (of course) and a little less on Stern and Capcom. However, all of the Sterns were purchased NIB (new in box).
A few other pins were found NIB. Capcoms Big Bang Bar was added to the collection in 2006, and so was Williams' Fish Tales (found in Cairo!) in the winter of 2010.
Most of our pinball machines are in original condition. Shopped, cleaned, waxed and provided with new rubbers, star posts etc. of course. But no touch ups on the playfields and cabinets.
They served only a few years, or in some cases a few months, their duty in the arcade and were privately held since then. To give a few examples: Star Trek for instance, is privately held since 1994, so is Addams Family Gold. Medieval Madness and Monster Bash were part of a private collection since 1998.
And what about Cactus Canyon, Cirqus Voltaire, No Good Gofers, Scared Stiff, The Shadow, Corvette, Indiana Jones, JackBot and White Water? All of them pins found their ways to players and collectors after a very short stay in the "line of fire".
The Hyperballs collection also contains several fully restored pinball machines. Some of them are restored with the use of NOS (New Old Stock) playfields. Champion Pub, No Fear, Dirty Harry, Flintstones, The Getaway, Whirlwind, Airborne and Pinball Magic for instance. Others like F14 Tomcat and Terminator 2 are waiting for their transplantation.
Funhouse is upgraded with a Illinois Pinball replacement playfield, Attack from Mars has a High-class Pinballs repro, Black Knight a Classic Plafields replacement and Theatre of Magic has a Playfield Renovation renovated playfield installed.
The wireramps are gold plated in Medieval Madness, Pinball Magic, Champion Pub, Indiana Jones, The Shadow, Theatre of Magic and of course Addams Family Gold.
Some cabinets fade easily like Indiana Jones, Scared Stiff, Attack from Mars, No Fear, Fish Tales, Roadshow, White Water, Funhouse or Whirlwind. These machines in our collection still have most of their original colours.
Cactus Canyon and The Getaway have new decals attached, Champion Pub and The Shadow have new decals attached on the head of the Cabinet.
If you have a pinball machine in your possession, which is more than perfect and is currently not part of our collection, please let us know.
