CP Zippo Lighters

Has anybody else won one from the machines they have in the park? I won two with like five bucks in quarters. A mantis and an Iron Dragon. Last time I was there they only were selling them in the Speed Zone store and I couldn't win on the machine. I was suprised that the game wasn't as hard as all the others are though. Any one else?

My friend tried it last year near Mean Streak and wasted 4 bucks of quarters! :) I should try that one near the Speed Zone, I might actually win something...

I have only won one of those machines once. Took about 5 bucks though. *** Edited 9/1/2004 6:49:35 PM UTC by Dane***

My friend won one out of the Main Arcade after about $20.00 in quarters.

I bought one (Wildcat) on ebay for $8.00

I've always loved the Zippo lighters with the coaster loggo's on them. This year I've had a hard time finding any in the machines. The few times I've looked for them all I could find were Playboy Bunnies and such.

Yeah this year I haven't seen any coasters except for the ones they sell.

Over the last couple years, I could have bought about four zippos with the quarters wasted on those machines, guess I am stubborn and have bad timing

I got one that has Millennium Force on it. It's pretty sweet.

How much do they sell for? I know a regular zippo can be anywhere from $15 to an astronamical amount. I think I bought my dad one and it was about 30 bucks.

It was selling for 22 bucks there when I got mine.

When I went to CP yesterday, I went to the arcade, mainly to play DDR, but passing through, I saw that there was one of those rotating mirror arm games. The zippos inside had MF and Corkscrew and a variety of other logos on them.

Glad they still have them in the machines.

And they will probably still be in the machines after you leave. Just like the pile of quarters I have left in them.

There were a bunch of people in a group I went with who spent most of the rainy afternoon getting them.

After winning many a couple of years ago, they got smart and rigged the machines to make it harder to win them. I tried several machines earlier this season. Many of the arms would stop pushing when hitting more than one.

I did luck out this past weekend and found a good one. I won a silver Blue Streak on the 3rd quarter.

Blue Streak, that's a keeper. I'm definately going to get a lighter next year.

Brought this thread back up to see what lighters other people have.

Of the 16 coasters, I still need:

Millennium Force
Top Thrill Dragster
Wicked Twister
Woodstock Express
Jr Gemini

Anyone out there have any of these that you might part with? I do have an extra Corkscrew. I have not seen them in the machines this year. Not even in the gift shops. Will look again next weekend.

I've found a few good machines left...

But sadly, after looking at almost every machine in the park [I think!], I cant find any that have the coaster lighers anymore either! All I see are the Beatles lighers, the Big 3 Lighers and a few others.

BTW My good machines have always been The two machines inside Hotel Breakers next to the pool and TGI Fridays. I've gotten over 10 Lighters spening about...20-30 dollars total.

In the main arcade, my brother won a lighter on his second quater. It isn't one of the CP ones, it's a zippo with a tatoo design on it.
