Here's two strange Bally pins side by side, "Strange
Science" and "Spy Hunter." If you consider buying a
"Strange Science" pin, make sure the neon topper as seen here is
present. They can be hard to find.

"Killer
List of Videogames," (KLOV), says Spy Hunter, the videogame, came out in
1983, then Spy Hunter II in 1987. Spy Hunter, the pinball machine,
was released in 1984. There was also a conversion kit for this pin,
released in 1985 by Bell Games of Bologna, Italy titled "Saturn
2." Also, the 1987 Italian Technoplay, "X Force" playfield shows nearly identical
faces that were used on the Bally backglass. The playfield itself is a whole different game though. |
