Location: 444 Phayathai Rd., Pathumwan, Pathum Wan, Bangkok 10330, Thailand

Continuing his series of location reports, Pinball News's roving reporter John moves on from China to Thailand, and lands in the country's capital, Bangkok. Here's his latest finding.

The multi-storey MBK Center is probably Bangkok's most legendary shopping mall, popular with both tourists and locals.

The eight floors are packed with 2,000 shops which sell everything from clothing, fashion accessories, handbags, leather products and luggage to furniture.

In July 2011 I accidentally found a Spider-Man pinball machine on the 7th floor of MBK. It was priced at THB20 (~USD 0.65) per game.

The working condition of this pinball was fair. Anyway, we should not expect too much, since pinball is not very popular in Bangkok.

It was a very good place for me to escape when my lovely wife was crazily shopping in MBK. :-)

MBK Center is close to the BTS Skytrain station 'National Stadium' and therefore BTS is the easiest way to get there.
