GORGAR Plastics are 3 away-I emailed them last week. So there must be 3 sets for other machines coming out then GORGAR, hopefully before Xmas

Peter


As long as you know they are coming....seems to be a bit of hype around these, would suggest to buy them as soon as they are available  *%*

Thanks for the info Peter, could be a few sets heading to OZ, judging by the response.

Nothing improves a game more than a reproduction backglass - and Gorgar is some backglass!

Very nice Peter  ^^^

I assume you have tied wiring looms back to prevent damage to your new glass?
The photos of the Gorgar backglass do not do it justice, they look sensational first hand.

Cheers

Yeah I put extra cable ties and clamps in to hold all the wires back and also ajusted the light board and moved it back alittle so the scores windows don't hit the new glass. Mine also has factory Mylar and the playfield has a great shine a zero wear not anywhere. Yours also looks very nice.

They look great Peter, mine are ok, though artwork missing off the centre line where the ball hits.

Thought I'd share this with you guys,

Picked up my daughter (3yrs) from after care today, and on the way home she tells me she wants to
play the "scary" pinball, I say no worries, and when we got home she went straight to Gorgar and started playing. I carried on cleaning the cabinet while she played, and after a few games she asked if she could help clean too, I said no worries and gave her a rag, so we are both hard at it cleaning away, and then on the radio comes the song "a little ray of sunshine"......

 !!! jeesus I'm choking back tears

Bloody magic moment

There will be a few more memories like that !

My one year old daughter claps her hands to the Addams Family theme that plays at the end of a game. Hilarious to watch - and cute.
