For some reason, Elektra does not have a good rep at all. I find that really strange.

HH is one of the most desirable games of the era.

Hey Nino, I have an Elektra and Black Hole is a better machine in all regards, except to work on ^&^

Elektra has no pop bumpers and a super difficult upper playfield, so a lot of shots just go up and down without much happening.  The lower playfield if fun but becomes very spankable once you get the hang of it - again it does not have the variation of the BH lower playfield, and the need to drop that bank of targets when you get it down there:D  The main excitement with Elektra is to try and get the three ball multiball, which is very difficult.

cheers

I have had two opportunities to buy an elektra - both projects. Not really high on the priority list, but I like games that are hard like Medusa and the multiball on BH. Hopefully I will get an opportunity to play one - maybe own one !
