Game - for trade

For sale: Robo-War (Gottlieb, 1988)

Condition: Used - shows wear but 100% working and clean

Price

Trade
Listed at $ 2,000

Game is in great shape and plays perfect. It has 1 insert light out, I replaced light bulb but it still don't work. Might be the socket, I haven't looked into it. It's got all LEDs and all boards were serviced a few years ago. It's a hard game to find for sale and has factory Mylar on it. It has 2 small wear areas on playfield under 1 pop bumper and at the top left of the playfield. See enclosed pics for wear. Pinside says no Robowars were ever sold in the marker place. Looking to trade for a sorcerer or gorgar with a clear coated playfield plus or minus cash so it is fair for both parties

Ed, I like your rubber "cheat" on the right outlane. Nice looking game.

It was on there when I bought it. I've had it a couple months and I just don't get into it like I thought I would. I know it's hard to find one for sale. I looked a long time before I found this one.

you should take off the right outlane cheater and play it a bit more before it is gone. That changes the game dramatically

I like the alternate trans. Pretty cool. I also like the original one!

Quite possibly the best quote in the history of pinball forums. Robo War does that to me, though. Such a great game & this one looks like a beaut.

That is a great looking game.

That ramp on the top left looks like the same mech in my Raven. Is that super hard to make or is it a pretty clear shot? I think Raven has more curve before it making it harder to hit.

All the good deals are in the middle of the country.

Ok this is on hold for a member on here. I would have rather traded it but will take the cash and search for a restored sorcerer. Thanks for all the interest, my pm box blew up! Ed

Yep there going up. I don't recall there ever being one sold in the market place, do you. A rare sought after pin in great shape equals get out your wallet. I wish I had 3 more to sell. I have 3 more guys that are praying that he backs out. I didn't even make him put up a deposit because I have it sold 3 more times. Ed
