Title: Christmas is coming! Christmas is...
Post by: geomartin on August 02, 2005, 12:55:34 am
Well my wife is a Hallmark ornaments collector, much cheaper than my arcade obsession, and every year around this time the new ornaments are released.  This year she came home with a winner.  I hope you appreciate it.  It lights up and makes pinball noises when you pull back on the plunger.  A little plastic ball even shoots out when you let er go!

Enjoy...Geo

The greeting card shops here will start putting up fake Christmas trees before the jack-o-lanterns even come down.
