Back around 1977 I worked at the Lagoon Amusement park in Utah. In there arcade I remember a pinball machine that was much larger than most and seemed to be 50% wider. It was mostly green and If i remember right it was based on dinosaurs. Does anyone know of such a machine?

I would guess Middle Earth.

If you're looking for one, I've got a buddy who's selling one in Columbus Ohio.

How has nobody said Hercules yet? Much larger & 50% wider? Has to be Hercules right?

Hercules is like 200% wider and bright orange.

Oh I failed to register where he talked about the art. Of course its Middle Earth but it isn't mostly green. ME only has a few spots of green on the PF, & the cab is mostly yellow/black I think with a some green mixed in. Its probably still ME he's remembering though. Although it isn't really much larger than most. Just wider but I think everything else is close to standard.

It was Middle Earth. As soon as I saw the name I remember. Never saw it again anywhere. But Lagoon had a huge Arcade and that's the only one I specifically remembered from my summer of work there. Thanks. I can't see the links at work, but I'll check them out later.
