I am not being rude, but i am always suprised why some blokes let their wives make the decisions for them.  

Some of us enjoy that our families are part of the process and decision making. To each his/her own.

Marriage is a partnership, not a dictatorship (that cuts both ways).

How you work out that partnership is up to the couple.

I was only joking felllas. My wife is on my case morning noon and night. I also toe the line to keep her happy. What man doesnt.
I didnt mean to upset you guys.Apologies.

By the way, when u look at the artwork on SPACE INVADERS, you can clearly see, that some years later, the producers of the the ALIEN movies series definately copied the artwork. The ALIEN from the pinball machine is almost identical to the ALIEN in the movies. I wonder if anyone who did the artwork for the pinball machine got the shits years later when the artwork was nicked by the movie people and they didnt get a penny in royalties.

Other way around. The Space Invaders "Alien" was an unlicensed copy of the Film's Alien.

Spot on Nino, H.R. Gigers work rocks. It is said he wasn't very happy about the rip-off when this pin came out.

As Quoted from the talented Mr. Giger

"Some stuff is a direct rip-off, some of it not so direct, but it's his mentality. It's all stuff that he did first. After the first Alien movie came out, the Bally Pinball Company made an Alien pinball machine without even asking him. When he tried to make an issue of it, they gave him two pinball machines."

I have always love the style of the Spacies so when i found one while on my U.S. trip i had to grab it.
Got new "50" caps, Bally door decal and headbox lock and she's looking good.
