    EM's is where Gottlieb really shined... The look and feel of a Gottlieb EM is second to none. Sure there are some great Bally and Williams EM titles. But as a generality, Gottlieb ruled that era.

    Once SS arrived, Williams and Bally left Gottlieb in the dust.

    Just looked at our "EM Top 100"... For what it's worth, 90% of the list (and 23 of the first 25) are Gottlieb.

    Quoted from mg81:

    I think when solid state came in ~1978-82 Bally had the best pins (I love this early SS pins, my collection is always dominated by them), but I can't think of one Bally EM pin that I like enough to own. I am open to suggestions, perhaps I have missed a hidden gem in the Bally EM world.

    The Bally EM "gem" is Fireball.. And then I'd add Wizard! next to that list...
