Space shuttle
« on: February 12, 2009, 10:29:52 PM »
Ok,  ive always liked the fast gameplay of this pin,  its not too deep i know,  but i really like the sounds( classic Williams ), multiball and speed of it.

Is it a rare pin?  What sort of price would one pay for one of these in working order?

PF 8/10 and needing shopping.

Thanks.
Andy.

7000 made so shouldn't be too rare.

But only 1 on owners list here, 4 more on AA. Last one sold on eBay AU for $1226 and sounded in reasonable nick. Dec 2007 one went for $1625. Could be harder to find in Australia.

So I would guess $1000 - $1800 depending on condition and who's selling it.

Thanks for that,  seen one for sale from an old op,  so it may be pricey.   Now i have an idea on price, cheers mate.

Great game for it time and i wasted a few coins in this machine.
I say around the 1000-1500 dollar mark.CPR are redoing the play fields and plastic set and you can still get a stencil kit for it so not a bad machine for restore.One day i do mine.

Very nice, I need to see if Mark C has any more like this coming in in 2010.

The problem with Space Shuttles is to find one that does not have the playfield worn to wood, particularly in the bonus area.  This game got hammered on location.  Also backglasses for some reason often have problems, usually lifting, sometimes flaking.

What's available in terms of decals?
