Todd these videos are amazing! Not only are they informative, educational, inspirational and funny but they preserve a part of nostalgic history for generations to come! Plus you make money doing what you clearly love to do, so cheers to you, there's nothing better! Also, I appreciate the contextual plugs, part and upgrade information as well as upgrade sources, tips and tricks. Everything you do and share has helped me rebuild and restore my arcades and pinball machines! I hope to one day be able to send you my Starship Troopers pinball for a complete overhaul. I've been stock pilling parts for months now and have begun many small upgrades and repairs myself to test my medal. Last but not least! A question? Do you think a ground pin on a three prong power plug could contribute to pinball machine's game play delays? Being, you start playing, the program is running on the play field and BING! a ball drops into an upkicker and just sits there. The game seems to have powered down, but the main play field lights remain lit. Wait a few seconds or a minute or to and POW! the music starts, all the lights come back on flashing the ball kicks out and you're back in business. Its almost as if the game took a nap and woke right back up where it left off. Thoughts? Perhaps it'll be in your next video! Eric@OffTheSetProps.com

Yes...he is!

In game's settings you can *disable* the vertical playfield. This causes the ruleset to change slightly. The game will never transport the ball into vertical playfield if it's disabled and will kick the ball out of the hill saucer while saying "Hill closed" on the display. This is useful if something breaks on the upper playfield and you want to keep the game playable.

Just played this pin for the first time at the Pinball Hall of Fame. Loved it!

Guys, love your videos. I hope you don't mind but I run a Virtual pinball competition group over on FB. Every week we have 3 tables, A weekly challenge, A weekend challenge and my favourite a Wayback table (SS and EM machines) I do a bit of research and put the flyers up but if we are playing a table that you guys have done a video for I will put it in the announcement when I list the challenge. Just so happens that this week we are playing Banzai Run so I hope some of my members will check out your videos and subscribe to you. Thanks for the videos man, I love them, so interesting for me to find out more details and the history of these tables. Thank you.

I have this machine. I played it at and arcade when I was 20. and I told my dad if he ever saw one let me know. he found the machine. I have owned it for 20 years. my machine was never in and arcade. it was home owner bought from new. no wear and like new. after looking at other machines. I might have the most original machine out there. and then to ind out that pat lawlor this was his first machine.

Could see myself having fun with that one but $$$ probably not cheap... as for your signing ceremony might be better to use the Poster Paint marker from Sharpie and not magic marker.

I'm not a pinball repair expert, but my dad, who was a super computer technician for Hewlett-Packard, has taught me a few things about working on computers. Please, stop touching the boards. It appears the machine is still plugged in and on. So not only do you run the risk of shocking yourself, but without properly grounding yourself you could damage the components by either static electricity, or bridging a connection that shouldn't be. Maybe pinballs aren't as temperamental, but it made my skin crawl to see it. Otherwise, a cool machine, and nice video.
