Here's a shot of the backglass and the head of the game. Notice that like Space Race, same Gottlieb similarities.

Here's a closer shot of the backglass.  I think this game would have been quite a hit as a Gottlieb game released in the US.

Hey, it's pinball. A small number of pins were out of order.  Check out the playfield though. It definitely resembles a Gottlieb 70's EM.

Cool cabinet art.  For some reason, some pins made overseas seem to hold up better over the years. Notice this cabinet lacks the typical white turned to yellow unlike many Gottlieb EM's produced.

I found a third Recel pin. 

Yet another pin I have never heard of before.  Interesting art. Catwoman is on the backglass trying to crash a party or something;)  Look carefully at the top right corner of the backglass. "Tilt" is the lit sign for the building on the cloud.

Again, a game that pass as a Gottlieb pin.  I enjoyed this pin as well, with it's unique playfield layout.

 

Once again, you can see a Gottlieb coin door, but this is not a Gottlieb pin.

Here's a third World Cup Soccer pin, and to the left, a very rare "Transporter."

This is one of the strangest Bally solid state pins I have ever seen.

Very rare pin. They are usually not working when you come across one.

To the left of another World Cup Soccer pin, I found a very rare Cyclopes pin!  Click to the next page to see the pics.
