looks great, beautiful game

Yeah, absolutely gorgeous pin. When do we get a vid of you having a game??

There are more Big Bang Bars in Australia than Big Juicy Melons.

 

This is one time when the use of the term "rare" is very apt.

Yep, beautiful pin. Love to see a vid as well.

I would rather people come and play it as it really need to be seen and played n person.
Plus I don't know how to video post stuff. If you any members are ever in WA look me up, you will be welcome.
I believe Bruce from AMD has one too that was at pinball head quarters for a while. And Joe from KJWHF may? have one coming for hire at a premium price.
This pin would really, really do well on site. So firkin addictive.

I have no plans to head to WA at the moment but you never know. Awesome offer though, thanks! 
Glad to see you're getting heaps of enjoyment out of it.

I have a question for old operators or players in the wood rail age of pinball or for those that know.
When you place the cigarette holder on a pinball machine, does it go on the apron or side rail?
Can not fin pictures anywhere and I really want one on my Nellie that is something a little different.
I don't smoke ( but use to for 27 years ) just wanted a bit of a difference and am not fussed about drilling into this machine,
I believe it will add character.
Here is a picture to jog your memories.

or you can go the glass ash tray like these old women

thank you kind Sir, I knew there was somewhere particular.

[andypinboy]

How will you affix the tray?

[oldskool1969]

Due to be real wood I nailed that sucker right on with the proper twisted nails. A nice tribute to a buy gone era.
Really stoked. Thanks Gav for info as it actually would feel right to place a fag there if I still smoked.
