Greetings Pinball Fans,
 
Today we are releasing a later picture of the blank whitewood playfield with color inserts. The picture was taken a few weeks ago and the Design Team has used these playfields to build up several games.
 
Greg Freres has completed the artwork for the three playfields and that has been submitted for approvals which could take a few weeks, especially with the upcoming Holidays. They look AWESOME! Lots of color and everything you would expect from Greg Freres representing The Wizard of Oz.
 
Jack found himself with another few nicknames after this this great story was featured on BBC. From the Inside Out regional documentary, which follows our longtime customer and friend Spike Reddington as he hosts a pinball event at his home and examines the growth of pinball. There are contributions from Spike, Jack Guarnieri and European Pinball Champion Franck Bona amongst others.
 
Jack was interviewed at the UK Pinball Party and he was then inducted into the UK Pinball Hall of Fame in August.  Jack comments; "These are some of the most passionate pinball people on Earth. I was honored to be there and I was treated as Royalty. I'm also very humbled after seeing this BBC report."

Thanks to PinballNews.com for uploading the video

We hope you all have a great weekend, lots of shopping in advance of the Holidays which start this week. Happy Hanukkah which starts this week. Jack asked Santa to bring him a Lionel Wizard of Oz train set to go under the Christmas Tree.
