Outright vandalism and utterly not clever. Piss poor "artwork" and crass theme, now I know what that denigrating term SCRAPHEAPS actually means.  SAD !!@

Agreed! This pinball is nothing but a poor attempt at humour. Art is something that can be appreciated. This is just rubbish and not just for crassness but also the "artwork" is nothing but blocks of colour with no design or creativity. Wow this pinball has really upset me.  ^.^

Vandalism.  If not it's the sort of art the government funds that I don't understand.

Definitely vandalism

Actually ive seen this one before. It was featured in "The Picture" magazine months ago, a mate of mine pointed it out to me who owns a Wild Fyre with no backglass and he actually considered doing the same to HIS wildfyre!!! i told him DONT you DARE..lol

Waste of a good machine.. only saving grace for this machine was when it was featured in "The Picture", there were two naked ladies playing it.. now THAT made it look better :lol

The designs are pretty lame & definitely show a lack of imagination.

Yeah your right. Saw that one on an episode of "Collectors" on the ABC in someones 'mambo' collection. Dont know what game it was originally though, they didnt get a closeup of the game so it was impossible to tell. Though from memory (this was several months ago it was on there) it looked like a Sys1 gottlieb from the backbox shape and the coin door.

Just goes to show some people are utter tools  !!@  !!@
