That’s too much!

This is a very good game that most experienced players don’t like until they understand it. The timed game play forces you to change your strategy. The playfield and backglass look really good on this one. I paid about this much for mine and am very happy with it.

Your pricing is spot on, pay no attention to the haters. Only 500 made and it's a badass and mostly unknown machine, a super rad title to have in a collection.

#5 4 years ago

Yup....it would take at least that to pry mine from the collection.

#6 4 years ago

Well all the Beat the Clock owners agree....great price!!

#7 4 years ago

Very cool game!!

I had one a couple years ago. Such a different game. Not 3 balls, but times. It would be great for a large collection.

I assume you bought this HUO example?

I paid $2K for mine and $400 to ship. Worth every penny.

It has a Squawk & Talk... what's not to like? The game play is unique. I used to play it on location back in 1985 when it was released... fun then, fun now.

I wish someone would repro the bumper caps though.

Weak brag bump: I have the original black & white playfield line art for this game hanging in my basement. Now back to your regularly scheduled price policing.

I doubt this will last that long. If games are rated by their gimmicks, then this one has a very unique gimmick. The gameplay is unlike any other pin. Stop the clock, add time, collect the bonus in the top corner.

In the setting you can adjust how fast the “seconds” tick by and how much starting time get. So it’s easy to make it difficult for any crowd.

Game is coming out of basement and up into garage, will be taken apart and plastic wrapped, so still available for sale, wont be available to play now

#14 4 years ago

Here come the lowball offers now... But I can't play it, so I can only give you $XXX .. LOL

Game is in garage, will still be playable actually, I was thinking head had to come off, it just folds down.
