The New-In-Box Monopoly on the handtruck, on my back porch. Great, the box is too big to fit through the doorway. No problem, let's just unbox it outside!! (Sorry about the camera strap in this picture.) |
A close-up of the serial number and stamps on box. |

The first peek into the box. |
Let's get a better look at that coin door. |

Almost all the way out of the shipping crate. |
All the way out of the box and flipped into the upright and truckable position. |

Here, to protect it on the journey to my pinball room, we've wrapped it with stretch wrap. |
Whew! It's finally in the pinball room. (Easier said than done, my pinball room is on the second-floor!) |

Front legs on. |
All legs on. |

Lifting the head. |
First look at the playfield. |

Another look at the playfield. |
Don't use the plunger as a handle. |

WOOHOO! It works! This picture is of the game soon after its first power-up. |

The Bank Vault Door. Opens and closes to allow or disallow you to shoot up the ramp. |
The Mini-DMD sign. Shows current information about the game in progress. Very neat toy. |

|
The spinning WaterWorks mini-flipper. Spins to make skill shots, and shooting the WaterWorks hole more difficult. This spinning mini-flipper also kicks the ball out of the WaterWorks hole. |
The awesome cabinet artwork for Monopoly. John Youssi (the Monopoly game artist) is one of my favorite pinball artists. He's got many, many games to his credit. |

This is cool. I have a Monopoly flyer that was signed by Gary Stern (of Stern Pinball) and Pat Lawlor (designer of the Monopoly pinball machine). Pat Lawlor is the designer behind many of my favorite pinball machines. A friend got this signed and gave it to me. Even though I didn't get the signature myself, it's still cool to have Pat Lawlor's signature. |
