If you ignore the first and third pictures (as they appear to be from a different machine), none of the playfield GI light area's are painted white.  They are just timber.

Buy it and put another playfield in it, then it wouldn't be too bad.

Sharp eyes, didn't see that.

Last auction there were a few questions that the seller answered, to his advantage - but if he was asked about the GI areas, he would avoid answering them.


that pf overlay DOES look a bit suss!! especially around the inserts, look at the registration errors with the black circles around them, especially the pic of the bonus inserts, how crappy does THAT look  :lol Also the font on the same inserts looks wrong, should be bolder/thicker looking.

Didnt realise that that style of drop target was wrong for this game, i used them on my own Kiss  @.@ mainly as thats all i could find and thats the type of target it had when i got it, so i just assumed thats what they had originally. I just had a look at a flyer pic which confirms what Nino said, tombstone style targets.

I've seen many KISS machines with the new "in line" targets, as they were the only style sold by the major sellers. I have no problem with them being in a restored machine, but I have a problem when the seller suggests that they are "original". Same color, but different style. PBR have the tombstone on "special order".

Overlays look crap and the feature lights need to be VERY bright to allow the light through. A seller in the USA used to sell them with fluros under the playfield. That was the only way it even looked half decent.
