I had a Hyperball a few years back. That and a Rapid Fire. The Rapid Fire was such a bad seller for Bally they ended up turning the remainder cabinets into Centaurs and EBD Deluxes.
They're fun to play for a short time but you get tired of them very quick. If you have people over to play they'll get played as they do have a novelty attraction but if you're wanting one for strictly your own playing I woudn't recommend it.
I played one when I was a young chap and was set on getting one recently. I agree with James that I think it would get a little boring over time and especially in a small collection.
But I think if you had a good size collection and space wasn't an issue it would be a good filler.
Shame they don't come up often locally and when they do its around the $1500+.
In the States they seem to go for around $500.00 to $700.00 which is about the right sort of money IMO.
