Just found one of these onsite while trying to get a haircut.. LOL - left house with son to get both the chop and end up in a shop playing pinball!

Anyway, First impressions are that this looks sensational.. nice bright looking machine. To be honest, it looks fun before you've even played a game.
Now I never read the rules before a game and prefer to just get stuck in and wing it. That's the only technique I have.
After playing a few games, I think the whole machine is balanced quite well.. no screaming rebounds coming back at you STDTM. Ramp shots flow VERY nicely.. couldn't get that damn captive ball though.
The Slimer is a lot smaller than I expected it to be but I found it an easy but satisfying shot.
I didn't get to multiball and had one very random air ball.. not even sure what it rebounded off but it flew right over the RHS flipper, outlanes and into the shooter lane which luckily saved the ball. Had this ball gone out of play id be really pissed and my review would be a lot different.
I like it.. its not cluttered and just looks like a good player which essentially it is.

Air balls could well be an issue.. I was lucky, but that aside, this is a great looking and playing machine.
Gets a thumbs up from me... ^^^
