Title: New Pin Day
Post by: pinnies4me on December 14, 2014, 01:45:54 PM

I love new pin day!!

A while back I asked Strangeways to source an NBA Fastbreak with the idea of doing an MM conversion. In between I sourced a good MM, so instead I spent this morning cleaning this one up.

Way too nice an example to wreck in any event.

Just played a few games - plays very well, fun layout with some good shots. Lots of ramps, and a fun "pass the ball" ability to get around the defender - really a quite enjoyable game.

Super clean inside - even has a "goody bag" still with some spare slings!

Wondering about the Defender plastic - the only ones I have seen for sale seem to be black - but mine is clear - anyone got any info?

Looks pretty cool, never seen one and might have to look at papa videos for some idea.

Sorry to disappoint - I know how much you were looking forward to a MM conversion  %$%

It is a very nice example - did it have the serial interface PCB to link up to another NBA ?

I'll keep my eye open for a stinker NBA for you mate  *%*
