Item description
Note: I initially listed this game For Trade, but that seemed to be limiting my available options. As such, I'm now putting this one up for a regular sale. Sale also includes almost an entire 2nd machine's worth of hard-to-find spare parts. Located in east central FL.
Here's one that doesn't come up often -- 1969 On Beam! This game is fairly rare (only 1,150 made), and this particular one is in phenomenal condition. Plays 100%, fast, frenetic, fun, & addicting. Gorgeous artwork & color. I love this game, but I'm ready for a change in the lineup. (Starting to migrate away from 2" flipper games.)
Some unique features:
- Fast-paced backglass animation, where the space ship and space station move around (your goal is to dock them)
- Super cool feature -- extra ball is launched back out from the trough instead of the shooter lane
- Extra balls are indicated by a star on the backglass -- and you can acquire multiple extra balls, so the stars keep track of them
- 'Lift-up' glass, which props up like a car hood to access the playfield
- This one comes with almost an entire extra On Beam's worth of innards -- the motor/relay board from a lower cabinet, the light & component board from a backbox, and bags of extra plastics, switches, caps, components, etc. All these extra parts came with it when I got it.
You can see these features in the video I posted here:
... (I got an extra ball on ball 1, and then two more while playing that extra ball, so you'll see how that works. I didn't finish the game, just wanted to record a short demo.)
Pictures of it included here in the listing, and all those and more (including the extra guts) here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1-tlzxCwyHce8VHBiUg4Bt1R3dvrW4eqI
Also includes schematic and score motor switch charts. Matching S/Ns on backbox, cabinet, and upper apron.
