Oh.....maaaaaaaaaaaaaate do the Bally Mariner - have always loved that game  *%*

That's a definite keeper, Tony. It will sit next to my Fathom. I was tempted in buying MarkC's GTB Scuba to go next to the Fathom. The Mariner is a 9/10 mate - I'll shoot you some pictures !

Finished the game last week, and it had its first "test run" in the gamesroom for my Daughter's first Birthday. Not one problem - which was great.

I wanted to add a fuse to each of the magnets, just as a precautionary measure. Was very simply really. I screwed in a bank of three fuse holders and rewired a new connector to pass through the fuse banks. Took me 15 minutes and looks like this ;




I tracked down new slingshots, and they arrived early this week, so I installed them straight away !





They look GREAT lit up ;





Some pictures during the day with the Flash off ;









The only wear spot on the playfield ;














Final pictures with the Flash on;








I have decided to sell the game, so I will work out a price and offer it here before eBay.

Decided against TAF? The horrors :)

Mine has a wear spot in the exact same spot! Cliffy has a protector for the vault as well, but it covers very little.

Make sure to play it a bunch and enjoy it a bunch before you let it go!

I LOVE TAF !

I just have to pay off a container. I've played 100 games or so on this game, and its the best TAF I've ever played, so it makes it EXTRA difficult to move on. My passion is more for SS and EM titles. I enjoy doing DMDs, but in all honesty, besides my CV, I see myself owning a Scared Stiff and maybe an Addams later on. I have to finish the SS collection off before I decide on SS / TAF.

Nice machine Nino !

Good luck with the sale....

Thanks Marco !

Awesome work Nino, I hope that I am able to own a TAF one day that is in as good a condition as the one you have restored  ^^^

You don't do lay-buy, do you?  && %.%
