Okay so since my descrption was too long here is some more of it.

Original Stuff!:
- Coin Door - I have repainted this using Rustoleum Hammered Paint - it looks spectacular
- Drop Target Mechs - These particular mechs came from a Big Game - They are stern originals and were cleaned up.
- 1 spinner switch, I had one original that was nice and it was used
- Apron - was repainted to match cabinet paint, and came from Stern Pinball.
- Cabinet - Was originally a Stern Pinball - was sanded, resurfaced, sanded, painted, etc etc etc...painted. It looks really nice. Not Perfect. I am not perfect. You are not perfect. Pinball cabinets should not always be perfect. I did not touch the back of the machine. Why? Becuase no one is going to see it I imagine. I painted it, but I did not concern myself wiht any scratches or nicks on the back of the machine. I did put new plastic bumpers/feet/whatever you call them on the back so if you break the machine down and set it on end the back should never actually touch the ground.
- Out lane switches - These are also from the stern Big Game.
- Spinner brackets - These are from Big Game and a random one I don't know the original source for. All tumbled and polished.
- Trough and trough kicker - From Stern Pinball
-Wire Ball guides - I actually was able to source these from a variety of playfields that I have parted out over the years.
-Lock down bar and receiver

and the rest...

So in conclusion you are basically buying a brand new Star Gazer. I have put roughly 200 games on it since I finished it 6 weeks ago. I have witnesses who have played the game in person, check with jdoz2 and Gov as they are the most recent to partake in the beauty and majesty that is this HUO Star Gazer. Do I want to sell this? No. Will I take this silly and absurd amount of money for it? Yes. Will I regret selling this to you? YES! Will Alyssa be happy about it? Yes. Will I take more pictures for you? Of course. I'm basically just going off of what I have on my phone at the moment. You want me to take a video of it playing? Gladly, the game is fast and brutal and a good game lasts only a couple of minutes so why not. Also it is running the modified code, but thanks to it using a board from Andrew Splitter the original code is just a couple of dip switches away.

If it does not sell (please, fingers crossed, don't sell) my future kid might have the coolest night light in all the lands!

Hopefully this description brings a smile to your face for a brief moment today, again do not buy this game at this price. If you do I will take your money, but....well yeah I'll take your money. Happy shopping.

Thank you!

Oh I forgot the tilt board is original as well!

Loaded a video of the cabinet paint so you can get a better idea of the metallic properties of the blue.

Planning stages, but with both of us working in school and coaching sports we actually have to try to time it as best as possible to not have a delivery date expected during one of our seasons. So doctor's appointments have been made and prenatal vitamins are being consumed.

Can't do well in the big game if you don't practice. Do get in touch with Klaus you have to know Peter, if you don't know Peter well my friend you can't afford it.

Laser Discs or bust!

Oh yeah if you can't tell from the pictures all the mechs are on molex connectors for easy servicing in the future. I also used coated wire to connect my lamps instead of standard wire to make it so you are way less likely to ever create a short.

Not on the kid part, appreciate that, but again just in the planning stages. If and when it is like for sure for sure, there will likely be some fire sales going down around the tsskinne household.

Both. It is a scratch build, and it is HUO, or H&GUO as stated earlier.

Thank you man, I appreciate the kind words. Hope you are doing well. I will actually be in Jacksonville next Wednesday night!

Thanks, but again just in planning stages, we are both worried about complications and struggles conceiving and what have you, but we are hopeful. I do appreciate it.

Boy oh boy do I have some good news for you then...get those downloads ready.

Haha, at least in same state, perhaps he will pass it along one day.

I'm not removing it from my history until it leaves my kitchen!

Based on the sickness in my stomach I don't recommend it. But yes GorillaBiscuits made a fair offer and yeah, I can say I had one for awhile at least.

For me personally it was a combination of beatiful art, unique layout, 3 spinners, 9 drops, and rarity. It had a small production run to begin with and add 40 years of games in the wild being destroyed and it becomes quite sought after. I started gathering parts to try and build this game literally years ago, took me a long time to get all the pieces together, and even once I had them another 11 months or so to actually assemble it all. It also has at least 2 different revisions of rules out there to make the most out of the layout so technically you can really change up how the game plays. For me, it is up there just behind some of the Bally games like Fathom and Centaur in art, and at the top of the pile of Stern games.
