Classic Stern Central!

[Ballywannabe]

My current lineup of working pins is:

Stern:
Meteor (fully restored)
Seawitch
Cheetah
Nine Ball
Stargazer
Quicksilver
Flight 2000

Bally:
Centaur (fully restored)
Paragon
Star Trek (1979)

Williams;
Space Shuttle

As you can see I have a soft spot for classic Sterns - loved them back in the day and I still favour them - fast, smooth gameplay with (mostly) interesting sounds.

In the shed I have a Lecronamo, two Hot Hands and an Electra that need lots of TLC...

cheers

Space shuttle was a great game for its time,wasted so much money playing that at Morley bowling. Didn't play that many sterns as manly a Williams fan but still some nice tittles you got there. :)

Yeah but how do I post them?  Seems they need to be hosted first?

When you post, there is an option at the bottom called "Additional Options" with a plus sign next to it. If you click the plus sign, it reveals an area where you can attach files.

Sweet collection !

I enjoy working on Sterns. I have a Flight 2000 waiting on a repro playfield. I've never played one before, but I've heard nothing but positive things about it.. A keeper for sure.

Working perfectly, and in very good original condition!  Actually it is not mine, but the owner has no room so it lives at my place ;D  Great game, in some aspects better than its more popular brother Black Knight IMO

FK2 is in the shed - it is going but still needs work.  Got a new plastic set but could do with the playfield if it gets done (which looks likely).

While it is interesting to play, it is not my favourite game.  Compared to other Sterns it is a bit slow and clunky.  This is made up for by the struggle to achieve multi-ball, which is pretty much the only object of the game as far as I can make out.  Might take the camera up to the shed tonight.

Playfield is getting done. I think it will get done after Fathom - soooo early next year.. !
