Nice game, like the four banks of drops - more drops the better!!

The drops dont reset on that game.  So apart from the obvious reason regarding putting new holes in the playfield.  Last thing you wanna do is make it too easy.

have a high hand which came originaly from hankins newcastle.yes they did a very neat job when sticking down the mylar ( why didnt gottlieb ) certainly saved the playfied as time passed and did something wierd as sticking woodgrain vinyl  around the base of the pop bumper & top arch.after the vinyl and gunk had been removed it came up like brand new.
