Atari Superman,,one of my favourite pinball,,,getting hard to find ! l have two. both not working. if you can get a good one for under $1500,,would be worth it..some have sun fade on the back glass..most of the playfields are good.. nice wide body,,if you played it back in the 80s,,you would probably still like playing it. l would put it down as a collectable.. anyone else agree ??

I bought one off a buddy who loved it. For me it was ok, you got to spell out all the letters which is hard. It's up for sale here in my city for $550 with a non working mpu. Atari is like an orphan for service, not many people want to try to fix those mpu's. Remember I am in Canada, & North American prices are usually 50% or better less than Australia. It has a nice backglass, 8 out 10 playfield, 7 cabinet from what I remember.

If anyone is gathering pinballs in the USA, & has someone going to Allentown April 30 or May 1. I could bring it down in the empty Uhaul trailer.

I've heard good reviews of Superman, but I cannot recall playing one. The artwork is very cool, but as mentioned, repairs could be an issue.

Great machine to play and own.
I can remember playing it in the Grand Prix pool hall in Fitzroy Street back in 1980.
