    This was a great idea. Zoltar always seemed like it knew what was going on when I was young.

    I used to love the Zoltar machine at Chippewa Lake Park back in the 60's! They had it in the arcade across from the Caterpillar ride. 25c got it going. I have a pic of one, like in the movie that I played back then. I looked for and found the plaque on the side that dated that machine as being built in 1878! I saw a video on here a couple years ago that showed it rotting and falling apart in the now collapsed arcade building. " The old fortune teller lies dead, on the floor! Nobody needs fortunes told, anymore!" The kinks really summed it up.

    I have a vintage fortune teller from the 1930’s that my grandfather use to have at his beach concessions back in the 1960s. But the true prize is one of those Mold-A-Rama machines that melts plastic pellets and makes a small toy of your choosing. I think they use to call it injection molding.

      I love anything animatronics and mold-a- Rama's , always looking for them when I'm traveling...

    I love Zoltar! I remember as a little girl seeing them in SF, and I think there was one somewhere close to the Cliff House around the beach area. Too bad the Cliff House isn't around anymore. Great place for lunch and dinner with awesome views of the sea. I remember now. It was Playland where Zoltar was, lol. I had such a wonderful time there. Thx for doing this video Jordan. 🤗😊

    If my memory is correct, Boulder City was built to provide housing to the men building Hoover Dam. I have a friend who is buried at the Veterans Cemetery in Boulder City. Fred, I haven't forgotten you. Great shop!! Scott has a mini Zoltar machine, that appears to be alot of fun.

    Hi Jordan, that's really good that fortune telling with that soda bottle. Really interesting seeing the molds and the costumes. I see Zoltar machines where we live, now I know where they came from. You and Scott will spring to mind when I see them now. Great vlog Jordan.

    Love Zoltar he was so cool had to have a fortune every time we went to the arcade at Hampton Beach, the only beach in NH. My cousin told me the arcade burned fown a few years ago so sad, such a big part of my childhood. I also missed Led Zeppelin by one day because my parents and my sister and I were camping ⛺️ and had to go home so they could work on Monday, I’ll never forget that it was 1968😿😎

    The last time I played Zoltar it kept spilling out money like a slot machine for about 30mins wouldn't stop yapping gave me 6 nice cards. By the time it was finished a huge crowd had gathered to play. Yes I still have all the coins and cards together and the Zoltar got it smack on........ it actually works l love them 🤗💛👍

    What a terrific opening! An absolutely fascinating vlog. It was so interesting to meet all those talented people who create those 'magical things' that make life more fun. I must confess I had no idea the amount of work and craftsmanship that goes into these machines - it's an artform. Thank you Scott for arranging this and thank you Jordan for another entertaining and educational vlog.

    Hi Jordan, we really share the same interests. I love fortune teller machines. I actually have 2 different fortune teller themed tattoos. One is a very large Zoltar on my left forearm and a Twilight Zone Nick of Time episode Mystic Seer fortune teller on my right forearm. Was surprised when you remembered magician Marshall Brodin, you look too young. I use to have his TV Magic Cards. Could never get them to work like he was able to on the commercial. Loved the tour, was suprised at the amount of options for fortune tellers. You should have them make a JAH fortune teller, that would be great. Take care. 😀😀😀

    I grew up in Boulder City and would walk around town with my friends at like 11pm when those main streets were totally empty, I've always loved the statue art. Awesome to see a video of yours here! You should check out the Boulder Dam Hotel if you haven't already - really interesting history there (although as a kid I was always scared of it because I thought it was haunted lol).
