Currently For Sale
Ten Stars
£1,700
Description
This is a 1976 Italian machine from the Zaccaria stable. Their machines had a protective coating on the playfield from new, and are always in immaculate condition. This is afine example, and a good game to play. Grab it now at £1,700
Mini Zag
£1,400
Description
This is a 1968 Bally, designed by Ted Zale. His machines were noted for their quirky playfield designs, and this one is no exception. Plays well, the cabinet has been stripped and repainted (not unattractively, but simple blue) but otherwise it’s in good original condition, for sale at £1,400
Hot Line
£1,300
Description
This is a 1966 classic game from Williams. It’s widely admired as one of their best 60’s games, and with goodreason. The bank of rollover buttons in the centre cleverly spell out the letters of Hot line, one after the other, which makes for a fascinating (and often frustratingly difficult) game. Some playfield wear, so it’s up for grabs at £1,300.
Singalong
£2,200
Description
This is a 1967 classic from Gottlieb. A perennial favourite amongst collectors. It features the row of kick out holes across the centre of the playfield, one of only 2 machines to have this feature. Unusually the kickers work perfectly on this model, flipping the ball from left to right as intended. It’s a real gem, great all original condition, plays lightning fast. A rare chance to snap a true classic at £2,200
Mini Soccer football table
£1,500
Description
We are also selling off some of the arcade machines that we have collected over the years. The latest one to come up for grabs is a Mini Soccer football table. These were made in West London in the early 1960’s, a straight lift from the Bally World Cup Soccer with a couple of minor amendments and a cabinet that weighs about one third of the Bally original. It comes fully working at £1500
Bally Wizard
£2,950
Description
This is the iconic 1975 classic featuring Roger Daltrey (Tommy) and Ann Margret (The Acid Queen) from the Ken Russell film of the Who’s “Tommy”. Always a favourite amongst pinball collectors, this is probably the most immaculate Wizard that we have ever owned. Perfect in every way, and rare to find in this condition.
Bally Captain Fantastic
£2,900
Description
Another icon from the Mid 70’sfeaturing the artwork from the cover of Elton John’s album of the same name, and showcasing the singer in his role as The Pinball Wizard in Ken Russell’s “Tommy”. Here’s a fabulous opportunity to put these two landmark machines side by side in a games room
Segasa Travel Time
£1,400
Description
This is a Spanish made machine, essentially the same as the Williams original. Segasa had a contract to reproduce Williams games in the 1970’s, which they did, with much better wiring and general build quality! A time based game where the clock counts down until it gets to zero, at which point the game is over when you lose the ball in play.
Gottlieb Playball
£1,700
Description
This is a 1971 offering from Gottlieb. It’s a baseball themed machine that mimics the game itself, putting men on bases, and scoring “home runs” as well as conventional points. The ball is launched from below the flippers by button, rather than the usual plunger.
Gottlieb 4 Square
£1,600
Description
This is a 1971 machine that is always a popular title with fans of this era. A deceptively simple layout masks a clever and difficult game to master.
Gigi
£1,900
Description
Another all time classic from the Gottlieb range of early 60’s masterpieces. It’s possibly one of the first “themed” game, as it’s artwork is based on the film of the same name. This 1963 classic is ready to go at £1,900.
Sweethearts
£2,200
Description
This is another classic early 60’s Gottlieb game from 1963. It’s a card theme game, with lots of fabulous playfield features. It can be yours for £2,200.
Air Aces
£1,895
Description
Another 4 player 1970’s Bally, this is a 1975 model. Great artwork, with 4 flippers and a huge bank of drop targets there’s plenty to keep a player busy.
Fortune
£1,100
Description
This is a Spanish export model from 1976, by Recel. These Spanish machines used mainly parts from the American manufacturers, and then they put their “Spanish” twist into the design. The build of these European machines was superior in some ways to their American counterparts, particularly when it came to playfield protection, and most of these machines playfields look as immaculate as the day they left the factory. This example is no exception.
They’re not to everyone’s taste, but offer a good entry into the field of EM’s.
Early Electronics
We are currently in the process of renovating our small collection of early electronic pinballs prior to offering them for sale. We have three ready at the moment, more to follow. These machines will be offered “as is” as we do not have the electronic expertise to offer our usual customer back up service. There are a fair number of pinball repair guys out there who can handle these machines and we can provide contact details if required.
Flash
£1,750
This is a 1978 machine from Williams. It created a sensation when it was first released, with queues forming in arcades to play on it. It had a number of innovative features, primitive by today’s standards, but revolutionary at the time. It is currently being renovated and will be available shortly from an address in the Midlands.
Rolling Stones
£2,500
This is a 1980 machine from Bally. One of the first licensed theme machines, featuring the Stones in all their late 70’s glorious shambolic selves. Our example spent many years in the well known and massive record store in Croydon, Beano’s (sadly defunct now). We will also be providing a playfield overlay with this machine which we purchased a while ago but never installed. It should make the game look like new from a playing point of view.
The Rolling stones can be viewed by appointment at our Ramsgate workshop.
Coming Soon!
Even in the depths of Mid winter we never stop in our search for more quality machines to bring in, renovate and offer back out to the public.
We have 4 absolute classics waiting in the wings. They will soon be in the workshop getting the care and attention that they need.
We have 2 machines from the all time great list of 60’s Williams machines, an Olympic Hockey and a Mad World. We’ve had both of these titles in before and they’re always popular machines. Pics will follow as soon as they are customer ready.
