I had said a few weeks back that I had put a stop to anymore arcade purchases until I had all of my current projects in hand. Then something pops up and I find myself buying another cocktail. A fellow collector sent me a message a couple of weeks back with a link to an…

An update for 2020
As you’ll no doubt be aware, I’ve been pretty quiet here for a while now. As is always the way, life gets in the way and hobbies take a back seat. I’ve not really had chance to do anything with my arcades since the end of the Summer last year. I haven’t stopped buying though!…
Purchases (Mar’-Apr’ 19)
I seem to be posting nothing but purchases at the moment (I’m aiming to get back to restorations very shortly), but it seems things tend to all pop up at once. Very shortly after my last post, a cab I’ve lusted after for a while came up via our friendly American supplier, Ken. A Nintendo…
Purchases (Oct ‘18-Feb ‘19)
Well this is what I get for moving house, a long delay in posts (and a reduced purchasing rate…). So due to my purchase and move into a new house I’ve gotten behind with my updates to this section (and others!). So without further delay, we’ll get into it. My first purchase in October was…
Purchases (Aug-Sept ‘18)
I finished off my last post stating that I probably wouldn’t be able to wait until the end of September to do the next post… well, here we are. I was super excited about the final delivery that I teased in my last post as it’s something I’ve been hunting for a long time (not…
Purchases (May-Jul ’18)
I know it’s been a little while since my last ‘purchases’ post. It’s not through a lack of purchases, more a lack of time! The people that know me, know I take A LOT of photos. I started this to try and help me deal with my horrendously bad memory, but also handily gives me…
Purchases (Mar-Apr ‘18)
I thought I’d post a quick update with my purchases during the last couple of months. The year started very quiet with no purchases at first, but there’s always the normal post-Christmas recovery! My first arcade delivery was from a fellow collector, Tony Temple (arcadeblogger). Tony kindly supplied some parts for my Space Fever project…
Purchases (Sept-Dec)
It only dawned on me over the last couple of days that I hadn’t updated my site in a number on months. I’ll make my excuses now (life, work, Christmas etc.) and get on with it. I thought it would make sense to round off my purchases for the year (as due to birthdays and…
Purchases (July-August)
I’m going to keep these to two month posts I think to account for the “dry spells” and reduce the possibility of a very short post! So as promised, in this post we have some quite unusual items that I’ve acquired (I know! More unusual than HeliFire I hear you say!). The first item was…
