We left from Agen at 6am and almost 6 hours later, we are finally arriving. After paying the entry (3 euros), I can see there are already lots of people in there.

After a quick tour I notice there are more pinballs about than last year, and also quite a few rare models such as Space Hawk and Pinball from Bell Games, the Cybernaut from Williams, Orbitor 1 from Stern and Lortium from Juegos Populares.

Amongst the traditional stands of parts there were a few novelties this year.

The first one was this stand where you could get your dot matrix display repaired for only 5 euros per line.

The second one was this display of old games console, which the public were really excited about.

It was also possible to get personalised key rings for your favourite pins.

As each year, a pin was the first prize in the raffle, and this year it was this nice Gottlieb Totem machine.
