Hello. I’m taking advantage of all this time at home to change out some games in my pinball collection, so I will list a few. I’ll also list a Flash Gordon. I love all these games and it will be hard to part with them, but I’ve had them all for a while and it’s time to switch it up!
I try and take really good care of my machines. Like a lot of people, I find I enjoy working on them almost as much as I do playing them. When there is an issue above my pay grade, I found a guy in Billings, Montana, and another shop in Idaho Falls that routes a bunch of games to help me with the more technical stuff.
The Good:
The game plays 100% and the backglass is great, with just a few old marks where the bulbs burned the paint. The cabinet is classic, especially for where we live out West and it’s in good condition. The playfield is super clean for a 1963. Underneath the playfield looks good. A nice pinsider pointed out that the flippers in the game aren’t original. I put on larger flippers for my dad, but I do have the original smaller flippers that will come with the game, or I can put them on, if requested.
The Bad:
The game is 56 years old and it’s age shows under the hood, which you can see in the pictures. I haven’t had to work on this one like other EM’s, though.
My friend in Billings did some work on the game when I got it back in 2016 and here's what he posted about it:

This one is tough to price. I posted a photo of the only data point I could find online...one sold for $1,350 back in 2012. This one here is in better condition than that one. So I don't know. I'm open to offers!
Cash works, but also trades...see my other games for sale and we could mix and match:
Bally/ Williams: Tales of the Arabian Nights, The Shadow, Road Show, Cirqus Voltaire, Indiana Jones: The Pinball Adventure, Theatre of Magic, Star Trek: The Next Generation.
Stern: Metallica (MOP). Guardians of the Galaxy (Premium/LE) or
Deadpool (Premium/LE).
Jersey Jack: Wizard of Oz. I would like another one for my dad, but one that was made in the last two or three years. Feel like they got a few the bugs out with those. Hobbit.
Thanks for looking!
