Stunning !

Let it be said that Medusa is simply one of the best machines or this era. The artwork, theme and playability separates this from other titles from all manufacturers around this time period. I already have the repro plastics set for my Medusa - just waiting for the repro playfield.

The machine in the auction is the best Medusa I've seen at a VERY good price. Great restoration.

How nice is that machine!

Probably the best eBay listing I have ever seen as well.

Yep, that is some Medusa all right!

Having played one briefly I can say it is reasonably challenging and has some interesting features. I particularly like the side-art.

That game has a reserve, so the opening bid might be much lower than what they expect. Will be an interesting auction to watch  *%*
