Pintastic 2023 preview with restoration shop tales and venue/timing concerns.

George and Dave from The Classic Pinball Podcast discuss their upcoming coverage of Pintastic 2023, a pinball convention happening 3-4 weeks away. Dave shares extensive restoration work he's performed on 30+ machines over five weeks, including notable fixes to modern Stern games (Jurassic Park, Mandalorian) and classic Williams/Bally titles. The hosts debate Pintastic's venue location (Sturbridge to Marlborough), timing (post-Labor Day), and observation that Galactic Tank Force developer John Borg is heavily featured, while discussing how these factors are affecting attendance.
