The Sights and Sounds of the Texas Pinball Festival

By knapparcade

While I am not personally at this week's Texas Pinball Festival (it's right in the middle of my youngest son's high school lacrosse season and I don't like to miss his games), I have been closely monitoring the event. The festivities are taking place this weekend at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Dallas Frisco Hotel & Convention Center in Frisco, Texas. So far, we have gotten three new pinball machine reveals at TPF, Turner Pinball's Yukon Yeti (Article Link), American Pinball's 100th Anniversary Edition of Houdini (Article Link) and most recently HEXA Pinball's The Three Musketeers (Article Link). Yukon Yeti and Houdini are currently on the floor for TPF attendees to check out. Three Musketeers is caught up in customs and it looks like it may not make it to the show in time. Below is a collection of videos and pictures that have been sent to me by a number of friends at the event, including Scott Heit from FecFin, the distributors Cointaker and PinballSTAR Amusements and Don from Don's Pinball Podcast / Spooky Pinball as well as gathered from manufacturers' social media. Thanks everyone. Enjoy!
