This is the reproduction and is a mix of solid state and mechanics... it plays REALLY REALLY well!

Ive pulled her a part already and had a good nose around... pins are held in place with magnets and are pulled up via a motor and strings attached.. all pretty cool.
Got a bag of spare parts plus manual etc.

This game is still available from CoinOpExpress... took me a while to get a reply, but you can pick up a new one for US$3500

Just been going through the bag of bits and bobs and reattached the cigarette holders to the game... i do like the little touches!

cool ^^^ ^^^ ^^^

Mines not QUITE as cool as the original... it lacks the clicks of all the relays working as you score, but it is cool anyhow.

The lighting is done with LED and some have been replaced with bright garish ones that are too bright for the backglass text... will swap these over for an offwhite and take it back from an attract the kids glare to where it should be.
