Thanks for the pics Troy. I've heard of that title but never seen one in the flesh. I guess that's as close as I'm going to get for now. How does it play?

Yeah it plays really well and suprisingly like other basic flat level pins it has some extremely hard features that make it challenging.
Trying to knock down the 3 by 3 target banks is really challenging and a rare feature it has its the spinner counter situated next to the match feature on the backglass.Everytime you ssoot the ball through the spinner it counts and when it stops on 20,40,60 or 80 it gives you a free credit with knocker effect the whole package which yeah in itself is rare!!
