Holy Moly - two people from Owasso, OK here?  That is something that I did not think I would see.

Jasoomian from Owasso, OK.  Stumbled across John's videos last year (maybe the year before) through no other method than a single video (an arcade tour) showed up in my recommended videos to watch.  Been a happy watcher, subscriber and, very recently, a collector as well.  My current claim to shame is admittedly watching the Journey restore twice in it's entirety.  A few episodes thrice as I searched for the video that had the MCR cables from Twisty Wrist (I could not remember where John got them) I wanted to use on my Tron.

Purchased my first cab, a really nice GORF last year.  Quickly followed by a busted up but working Super PacMan, a beautiful Tron I picked up in Dallas (where I managed to scratch the ever loving hell out of one side of NEW artwork) loading it into my vehicle and a Defender (one of my all-time favorites.)

I've promised myself no more cabs until I finish the SuperPac.  I also said this when I bought the Tron, and now the Defender.  And I am sure I will say it again when I get that much coveted ___________ later this year.

And, once again, hello from Owasso, OK!

Welcome fellow Owassian. It is quite the small world. There are a few Oklahoma members on here. Post some pics of your stuff if you get a chance.

I might want to rid myself of that SuperPac one day to fund the Defender restore, but, that Tron's not going anywhere anytime soon ;)  That game is near and dear.

I'll try to get some decent pics and post them up.

Hey Shipwreck and jasoomian, Here is the facebook page for fellow Oklahoma collectors. I'm not sure if either of you already participate on the page, but figured i would give you a heads up.

Pics as promised - they are hosted by the fine folks at imgur.com

Hmmm, when I try to preview, it just says 'Fetching preview....' -- forever, so, if you like, the link below will get you to the album.  If you can't see the pictures, let me know.

I see why you won't let that tron go... Any game you have to drive to Dallas to get will stay in the collection for awhile. Haha
