JUST TRADED INTO OUR STORE THE PINBALL DUDES IN JUPITER FL. CONSIDERED ONE OF THE GREATEST PINBALL MACHINES OF ALL TIME, THIS IS JOHN POPADIUK’S MASTERPIECE. ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER PINBALL MACHINES FROM THE 90’S GOLDEN AGE. THE PIN WAS IN THE SAME HOME FOR QUITE A LONG TIME AND WAS VERY WELL MAINTAINED. THIS IS THE GAME EVERYONE WANTS AND EVERYONE ASKS FOR. WE ARE A FULL SERVICE PINBALL STORE. OUR INCREDIBLE TEAM OF TECHS DID A GREAT JOB ON THIS PIN. THE PLAYFIELD WAS STRIPPED TO ITS CORE, CLEANED AND WAXED, AND ALL NEW RUBBERS AND LED LIGHTS WERE INSTALLED. HOURS OF LABOR WENT INTO MAKING THIS THE AWESOME LOOKING PLAYFIELD YOU SEE IN THE PICTURES. THE PLAYFIELD IS A REALY SOLID ORIGINAL EXAMPLE, AND EXHIBITS MINOR WEAR FOR A 30 YEAR OLD PIN, IN OUR OPINION. THESE PLAYFIELDS ARE USUALLY REALLY BEAT UP DUE TO THE POPULARITY OF THE PIN, BUT THIS ONE IS VERY SOLID ORIGINAL. THE TECHS MADE SURE EVERYTHING WORKS AS IT SHOULD, AND THE PIN PLAYS AS IT SHOULD WITH NO ERRORS. TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT THE PLAYFIELD PICTURES TO SEE HOW AWESOME THE PIN LOOKS WITH THE LED LIGHTS INSTALLED. THE CABINET EXHIBITS SOLID ORIGNAL COLORS AND MINOR NICKS AND SCRATCHES EXPECTED ON A 30 YEAR OLD GAME. I HAVE A THEATRE OF MAGIC IN MY COLLECTION AND IT IS NO GOING ANYWHERE. THIS PIN HAS SOME OF THE SMOOTHEST AND COOLEST SHOTS YOU WILL EVER SEE ON A PINBALL MACHINE. THIS GAME IS A TRUE CLASSIC WITH 3 POP BUMPERS, SMOOTH RAMP SHOTS, SEVERAL MULITBALL MODES, A MAGIC TRUNK ON THE PLAYFIELD THAT NOT ONLY MOVES IT ALOS CATCHES THE BALL OUT OF MIDAIR WITH A MAGNET, AND MY FAVORITE THE SPIRIT RING. THE GAME PLAYS AS IT SHOULD WITH NO ERRORS. IF YOU WERE LOOKING FOR A REALLY SOLID EXAMPLE OF THIS PIN THAT PLAYS GREAT, WITH A VERY NICE ORIGINAL PLAYFIELD WITH LED LIGHTS, AND ONE THAT WAS ACTUALLY WORKED ON BY PROFESSIONAL PINBALL TECHS, THEN DO NOT MISS THIS ONE. ALL GAMES CAN BE PLAYED AND VIEWED IN PERSON AT OUR SHOWROOM IN JUPITER FLORIDA FOR THE PINBALL DUDES.
