Sedgwick Strikes Back
« on: June 29, 2011, 09:02:45 AM »
No idea what "Sedgwick Strikes Back" means, but gave me a chuckle.  :lol

Worst pinball machine veer made in terrible condition without the one redeeming factor - the backglass.

How much?   !@#

What's the story behind this machine ? The BEST part of an ESB is the backglass..

If I win it I have a plan to hopefully make it a good playing game while still owning an Aussie classic

If any one really wants to take a gamble on this, I have a complete TESB backbox I might be willing to part with for the right price

Some IC's are missing (those that will fit in a Bally SS)

Hmm, that would take a complete re-design of the playfield!!

Great offer Pete, if Daniel or someone else with a hankering for this Hankin does secure it, they could restore it to its original boat-anchor quality playability!!

Good sound effects
nice backglass (hence why I kept the backbox and trashed the game)(this was before the internets, and I realised it was similar to a SS Bally)

heavy POS game

Might have to take you up on the backbox offer if I win pete....

 And playfield will be left
As original
To factory as possible but game play will be greatly improved.  &&. (if my idea works if not it's another playfield on the roof

Big call, surely Orbitor 1 would give it a run for its money?
