    This one needs some love for sure, but this is why I love your channel. You enjoy pinball for the love of the game. New, old, working, non-working, it's all here in your channel. Keep up the great work!

    Sinbad! This one is another kick in the old memory gonads.
    I used to play this one a lot at our bowling center when I was a kid. I could camp out on it for a fairly long time. I don’t think my mind set as a kid back then was anything about reading the instructions, I must admit. I was more of a learner of strategy by playing and experiencing the game as it happened. Later in life I realized pinball is like sex. 😂 One of those I wish I knew then what I know now type of things. Oh well… still played for an hour or so with just a couple quarters once I did figure out what I needed to shoot at.
    Take care brother, thanks for the great video and flashback!

    Great old Gottlieb. …I think you were a bit generous in your scores…I’d only give this playfield a 5 max, and the backglass maybe a 6…. This machine is a good contender for a restoration - a new playfield and backglass, and a cab repaint would bring it back to being a high end game. It’s a lot of work, but worth it for the right collector.

    Why do you remove isolate transformers ? Doesn't it protect you and electronics from mains and what about different mains voltage in different countries ?

      It is technically another layer of protection but Ontario was the only province that incorporated this law. No other province or any other state felt it was necessary so I remove them!

      @@pinballshenanigans From what you say, you probably still have a isolate transformer in the other transformers, it seems pointless excise adding 2.
