I'm playing a bit of "catch up" with my restoration threads, and this game has been completed for a while. There's a lot of mechanisms that need to be rebuilt, and I'm amazed at how much is crammed into games like Roadshow, ST TNG and TZ.

Here's the completed underside of the playfield after every moving part has been removed and rebuilt ;











The playfield has been completed and most of the testing done. I'm very pleased with the end product.





The cabinet has a lot of color for a game of this age. Original legs are in great condition





Here's some bling shots of the completed game.




















Completed machine








This machine is VERY much a sleeper title. I can't recall playing a perfectly working example, so I've never appreciated it and as such, categorized it as a "C- Bally / Williams", but I have to say is is definitely a VERY good player if working correctly. It plays as well as a ST TNG or IJ widebody. I have a blast play testing the machine !

The game will be picked up by an AP member next month  ^^^
