This guy really is amazing!

The army of garbage loves you Todd! Hope to see you as a guest on the show.

I used to watch this infomercial over-and-over when I was a little kid. I absolutely LOVED the salesmanship. It was my earliest inspiration to go into advertising, and start an agency. Thank you, Todd!

Nobody: Philly TVs in the 90’s when you’d wake up in the middle of the night:

I grew up outside of Philly and I remember seeing this infomercial at night when I was a kid all those years ago. This brings back a lot of fond memories, glad you guys are still in business!

I'm so glad to see this again! My friends and I used to watch it constantly! Once we saw Todd at a diner and it was like we saw an A list celebrity. My friend happened to have a rubber glove in his pocket and Todd was nice enough to take a photo with us holding the glove. Haha!

Nicole Riccio I am ALWAYS game for a picture!! The HAM in me!!! I love diners...so keep an eye out for me again for another picture!

I’ve seen dozens of Todd’s videos, but this infomercial has me ready to drive to Pennsylvania to pick out my next pinball machine.

This is too great. I can't imagine how starry-eyed I'd have been to see this come on my TV late at night in the 90s. No doubt I'd have recorded it with my VCR. Still a pleasure to watch in 2019

I used to watch this every time time it came on as a youngster. Just had my 33rd birthday in the show room the other day.

Oh man. I went to art school in Elkins Park on the outskirts of Philly in the late 90s. I and several students in the dorms knew this infomercial all too well, and watched it many times. I would go as far as to say that this may be the greatest infomercial ever made. One of our favorite parts was always "Boogie!"

AYG brought me here! Todd you are superstar big guy!

KZread just suggested this to me. This would have been the only infomercial I’d have watched back then. I would have been glued to the TV! A younger, bearded Todd is cool to see!

I lived outside of Reading, PA and got your catalog a few times back in the day. I remember this one from when I'd sneak and stay up late at my cousin's outside of Philly. My parents wonder why I love vids and pins so much. I'll have to confess it was watching Todd on late nights. ;)

Wow the memories are flooding back, What a great Retrospect. It's Amazing how TNT Amusement's have grown to be one of the Great Staples if not last providing sales & repair services for Arcade Amusements. Todd Tuckey is honestly my hero from a Sales & Businessman perspective, It's truly impressive how his mind work's from his ideas, insight & forsight in a industry that has collapsed and grew time & time again! Truly a Legend and what I would give to spend time and converse with him and the knowledge he has! But sincerely looking back in retrospect it's mindboggling how far and quick TNT has grown and established a name and for themself, A true underdog story and would make one hell of a documentary.

I clicked on this because I have been watching your pinball overhaul videos recently. I only planned on watching a few minutes but stayed for the whole thing. It was really cool to watch! I am the arcade manager in a new arcade in Lehighton, PA. I really like to watch your videos, pinball is my favorite arcade game. If you are in the area stop by Country Junction and ask for Tyler I would be glad to meet you and show you around the arcade. I plan on driving out someday to see your showroom as well and was wondering if you do any sort of unlimited play for an or or two and how much. I would love to play your arcade games.

Remember coming here as a kid. That was over 20 years ago. Great memories.

God, I must have watched this "infomercial" 100 times at 2am on Suburban Cable in Bucks County back in the 90's! I don't know why, but I had to watch it every time. (Side note, there were only about 40 channels back then.) It was so bad, it was good. Kinda like a bad car wreck. I had to slow down and look every single time. I was always BAFFLED how somebody could afford to air this so many times (for 30 minutes!!), but couldn't afford professional video production! TODD: please answer this burning question! And congrats on your legacy.
