Up the ante on cave madness

Step back in time to experience the retro-cool of the 1930s through to the ’90s at Man Cave Madness. Nestled in Bike City Warehouse, Campbellfield, this is a treasure trove of quality collectables, cocktail tables, arcade and pinball machines, signs, lights, bar stools and petrol bowsers.

An explosion of colour lines the walls and floors of this showroom, displaying classics sourced from around the world. The store boasts Australia’s most extensive display of old petrol bowsers, stools and signs. Buyers can visit seven days a week, as well as online.

Man Cave Madness owner Robert Ferguson has been collecting pinball machines for more than 25 years.

He carries a huge selection of the machines, with 150 on show in store, which can be delivered locally or interstate.

His high-quality range includes popular brands such as Batman Forever, Corvette and Playboy, to name a few.

And if someone is looking for something specific then Robert urges them to get in contact for a full list of items not listed online.

He says two of the biggest sellers are the 1950s reproduction petrol bowsers and gas-lift bar stools, which come in familiar designs such as Shell, Mobil, Ampol, Golden Fleece, Harley Davidson, Coke and more – a perfect gift for the man who has everything and, with layby options, there is no excuse not to miss out on limited items.

Current specials include reproduction petrol bowsers from $1350, bar stools from $120 and various metal signs from $25.

Exclusive specials include mini cocktail machines, with 60 games, from $550; upright arcade machine with 1940+ games from $1799; and cocktail machines, with 1940+ games, reduced from $1999 to $1399. Selected items come with a 12-month warranty. Delivery available.

Recognising that niche products require niche services, Man Cave Madness offers experienced technicians to carry out repairs and maintenance on pinball and arcade machines, either in store or at home. This ensures that every man cave never needs to be out of action.
