Item description

Standard edition with the large LCD backbox screen and grey trim. Game plays 100% - no issues whatsoever. Very clean inside and out. There was some minor chipping just above the 3rd rotating wheel which has been touched up and mylared (see pictures). Really fun and fast game, just looking to shake things up. Must pickup in Madison, WI. Will work with a shipper if the buyer arranges.

GLWS Bump.

#3 6 years ago

In case anyone is curious, you can easily drop in an Aliens kit with updated PC into this game very easily.

~4600 will get you an Aliens Kit it sounds like and new PC. The entire pf swap process is ~5 min; you slide the whole pf out on the service rails, unplug a few connectors, and lift it right out. Then reverse the process for the new pf.

If I had not just bought a new game yesterday, I would just have grabbed this myself. Such a super fun game.
Anyone not familiar with the rules shoudl check out the Bowen video that does a walk through. General challenge and idea is to stack all the main multiballs (very challenging) and also to progress through all the races (also a great challenge since this is a flow machine but modes require control and avoiding some shots while hitting others).

Great seller and all around nice guy - excellent price on this game too!

Nice bump from Hilton to show how easily you can swap in an Alien kit.

I had a lot of fun with Full Throttle while I had it. GLWS.

I played a few games last night on this table and it is playin butter smooth. I made it to red mist for the first time in a VERY long time! Super challenging!

#7 6 years ago

I love mine, great shots and flow...GLWS

#8 6 years ago

Friday afternoon bump! Reach on out if you have any questions - I'm happy to answer!

#9 6 years ago

It is saturday. Time for some Full T action

#10 6 years ago

Price drop to $5000 firm.

#11 6 years ago

I could assist with transport to Pinburgh/area if someone needs it and buys this in advance.

I will also be heading west to Devner at the end of summer and could assist with transport en route there.

Just offset my gas costs for the transport

#12 6 years ago

Killer price,fun game.

Bump

#13 6 years ago

Good Price

Thanks for not charging more than NIB like I see all the time with games.

Good deal especially with Alien on the way.

#14 6 years ago

i will also be heading to denver for the Rocky Mountain show in early june.

#15 6 years ago

Wow. How is this not sold. Heck it is almost worth me buying it. Which suggests it is a steal.

It's a non-licensed game about motorcycle racing. Not everyone's cup of tea.

Quoted from TheLaw:

Utter nonsense. People just haven't played these...there aren't many out there so they are clueless as to what a steal this is.

This is $1500 off new price I'm guessing with the big LCD.

Game is really fun. Incredible flow--reminds me of my TOTAN in terms of ramps/orbits zooming from one to another. They are also built like a tank and make stern's feel flimsy(sorry but it's true).

People also likely don't know you can drop an Alien in this cab as well for $4600-4800 or so.

Theme...blah blah effing blah. Look at the themes of the top 50 games....rafting, tornadoes, golf for christsakes!!! GOLF!!! Yet motorcycle racing is a theme problem....riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

#22 6 years ago

Man I would love to have this...FLOW CITY....but I have 3 daughters and a wife that would make me sleep in the yard.
It's a nice yard though...

#23 6 years ago

Theme is awesome. Game is awesome. If i had funds, i would have picked this up. 5K is a steal for this and Heighway did a great job with their first game.

I think 1800 off. If I remember correctly, NIB is 6800 (including the 500 big monitor upgrade.)

You're making all the points I make in threads aboot how theme shouldn't be so important to everyone but is; so we're raging against the same machine. Theme is hugely important to people buying games now, it's what the hobby is. As you can see from my collection I do not agree, but that doesn't change anything.
I never said the theme was bad, I never said it wasn't a good game, I never said it wasn't a great deal. Theme can be an issue for people as you know from your own review; riight? I went wasy on ya and only put in 1 extra i

From your review of FT
"Great game! Not sure why some whine about the "theme"."

Quoted from TheLaw:

I think you're trying to be too clever by a half here. I was addressing other bullshit reviews that whine about the theme...and you pop in here to mention the theme...and nothing else.

This is basically one of those self fulfilling prophecies...the more people mention it's a theme problem, it's a theme problem. Meanwhile, relatively speaking NOBODY has played the game.

Quoted from Wickerman2:

Can't really agree 100% there but whatever. This is basically a brand new machine and people buying new machines are obsessed with the theme...I mean on Pinside threads anyway.

Grand lizard with sale!

I played the game and loved it at Pintastic. Super flow, lots of fun. Racing theme is fine by me, not a race fan but fine by me. Wish I was closer since I won't buy games sight unseen. Would love to have this and the Alien kit and do swappy. Price is nice too.

it is def the BEST flowing machine I have ever played. This was the game that made me realize Ritchie had to give up the crown. Dave is not the king of flow. Combined with the great use of inductive switches and the ball just does not slow down!

#30 6 years ago

Theme is very important to people including me. I can almost assure you that's the problem here just like it is with mustang.

That being said I think this is a cool theme with great sounds. Layout is confusing/not inviting and I don't like the cabs look at all (looks cheap) but it wouldn't stop me from buying. I'm sure this will sell soon

As for alien I thought it would be cheaper to get that in here than 4700. Maybe I was too optimistic!

#31 6 years ago

Thanks for all the bumps everyone! There are a number of interested parties, but it's still available as of now. Really fun flowing game! If you haven't had a chance to play it, stop on out and give it a go! Like it, and you can even take it home with you!

#32 6 years ago

As a previous owner who cares nothing for motorcycles I can say this game is a lot of fun and as people have said the flow is great. Additionally his game is very fast. I mean wicked fast! My main reason for selling was simply hat I got a very nice unsolicited trade offer for it so I took it knowing I would likely get an alien in the future.

GLWS. I think people are crazy for not jumping on this at $5k. No brainer. Heck, if you were local I'd probably buy it myself.

#33 6 years ago

I wish someone would buy this so that I wouldn't continue to be tempted by it I've played this particular game many times and it plays perfectly and is a ton of fun! I'm really going to miss it especially since it's a game you barely ever see.-rarer than a Big Bang Bar. Sean is a great seller and whoever buy's this is getting an awesome deal! The build quality of Heighway games and the amount of features for the price is tough to beat.

#34 6 years ago

I have had mine for over a year and I still love it. I would never let go of mine for $5K. Somebody is going to get a great deal here.

#35 6 years ago

I have a deposit down on Alien, if I wasn't moving this summer and trying to downsize for the move I would be driving to WI this weekend. I'd play Alien in town and see my cousin, and move the deposit to a kit. Bad timing. Cool that there is/was two FTs in Madison.

Good luck with the sale, I bet it would be gone in other markets already. I've played two different FTs the game is great, amazing flow and just fun. This is a great price too.
