"The game images presented in the flyer and the other art shown here are computer-generated, as this game never went into production. It was to be manufactured under license from Bally. Wayne Gillard, Managing Director of The Pinball Factory, tells us that with the untimely death of Steve Irwin, the licensing collapsed. We asked him to confirm our understanding that 25 translites were made and he replied that parts were ordered for 25 prototype games. Only two whitewoods were made, a sample cabinet and a production cabinet, the latter having the same artwork as shown in the flyer."


Also I did start the thread in the Pinball Nostalgia because it is a bit of Aussie History that never happened - a shame

But if anyone has seen a cabinet for themselves or a playfield and can share a pic or more would be awesome.
