Game - for sale

For sale: Big Top

Added: 2019-05-24 18:16:16 UTC • Ended: May 26th, 2019
Condition: Fully restored (full original status)

Price

$ 100

1977 Wico Big Top. I picked this game for my daughter when she was little because she wanted her own pin. She plays the big boy stuff now, so this has been sitting. Thought I would pass it on for a cheap price if someone here wants it for their kids, or maybe to get someone younger into the hobby.

Proceeds are going into her account towards her next full-size game.

It was an absolute mess when I picked it up, so we fully restored it. Powdercoated legs, shined all the chrome, LEDs, rebuilt the flippers and plunger mech.

Even though it’s a home use 3/4 size pin, it’s not a “toy game” and it’s in great condition. Plays like an EM, has chimes and real Wico & Bally parts and mechs.

Comes with instruction manual.

Would love to have this for when kids are around, but will wait to see if anyone with kids wants it first.

That’s what I did when I bought it. She loved it, but she’s 6 now, and plays BF and Dracula more than anything else. Here she is after we got done refurbishing it when she was 3.

My first thought when I picked it up was it would keep the kids from monkey flipping my full-size games LOL. I’ve gotten a few PMs, but nothing definite yet.

Yeah this is a super righteous offer Colson. Also want, but standing down to let a rad parent snag this... I can’t be that guy who stands in the way of the best birthday present ever!

#7 4 years ago

Id snag it, but I have like no room. My daughter would love it...oh well. Some one else!

GLWS!

A childhood friend had one of these when I was growing up. It was such a thrill to play it in his basement way back then.

It’s actually a pretty fun little game. Gives you the feel of a full size pin. Definitely doesn’t feel cheap like the Brunswick home games. Ball lift is interesting, similar to old GTB EM games.
