Pictures of the game are at: https://tomspinballpictures.shutterfly.com/37

The Good:

This is an original glow in the dark bones game.
I bought a partial glow bone set to replace some missing/broken parts and the balance of that set is included with the sale.
New plastics, old plastics are included.
Security Bar Included
Custom Target Decals Installed
Flippers Rebuilt
Cliffy Protectors on the Spider Hole, Ball Lock, and by the Crate (all 3)
Cliffy Protector on the shooter lane
Cliffy Colored Post sleeves
Kerry Stair Ramp Reinforcement Kit
No playfield wear in front of crate
Grey Shooter Rod is included, but not installed currently on the game.

The Bad:
Security Bar covers holes in cabinet from another security bar (shown in pictures)
Crate Decal could be replaced, original is showing signs of wear
Cabinet faded, more so on the right side than the left.

If you need any additional photos, then please PM me and I will post them for you.

Shameless Bump. I would be open to a trade including cash for a system 11 game like Whirlwind or EATPM. Or a Cosmic Gunfight (long shot).

Bump--Price Lowered to $5,400

Friday Evening Bump.

Right now I have a lot of interest in the game. No one has given me a firm commitment to buy. Everyone that has responded is buying at a distance, and would require shipping. In the interest of full disclosure, from a picky person such as myself, I want everyone to know the following:

The spider hole has wear, it is covered by a Cliffy
Grey Ball Shooter Rod is included, but the tip is pretty worn
The plastic behind the rotating spider in the backbox is cracked (I will try to find and include)
The Crate Door Decal has wear (I will try to find and include)
The Monster Ramp has an imperfection (not really a bubble). It is where the light below the ramp has heated the ramp over the last 20 years and left a 3/8 diameter mark.
Ramps are original, the Bat Ramp has the Kerry Stair Protector installed. The protector also holds this ramp together, as 1 side of the ramp is cracked.
It is an original Sample Game with original glow in the dark bones. Mr. Pinball Book says about 100 were made. The flipper bats and 1 of the monster's ribs have been replaced with reproduction parts. The flippers look very good, but the 1 replacement rib is darker colored. I placed it by the Kerry Stair Ramp Protector to "best hide" the different rib.
The Bat Ramp has a "homemade" lid. I found after rebuilding the flippers and Treasure Cove Polishing the playfield that a solid shot up the Bat Ramp would fly off the ramp and land in the pop bumpers. Nothing is damaged. To avoid possible damage, I added the "homemade" lid. The homemade lid is removable. The ramp was not drilled for it's installation.
The frogs and Boogy men have all there arms, feet, toes, etc.
The Right Slingshot plastic has a very small chip. I will get a photograph.
Everything is there, working well. No flaky switches. Nice bright DMD. No hacks on the boards. The DMD board has new capacitors, installed by Ed Cheung
On the left side of the backbox is a signature. I'm not sure if it is graffiti or if it is significant in some way. I will take a picture and post it.
The shooter lane has a cliffy installed.
I replaced all the #44 bulbs with #47 bulbs.

I'm trying to be a picky as I can. In my humble opinion, photos do not do this game justice. It really is a good looking game.

I'll let you know once I get the picture posted.

@ Kyle, AKA Mudflaps. If I could, I would personally deliver. You pay the airfare. We all miss seeing your around.

Take care of yourself and stay safe.

I added more pictures to: https://tomspinballpictures.shutterfly.com/37

Below is a few black light photos of the glow in the dark bones with the game off. Once the game is turned on, you really lose the effect (also shown).

Quoted from Manic:

I used to have this game and doesn't it periodically (and dramatically) kill all the lights for a moment to allow you to see the full glowing bones effect? I forget now?

Yes, at the beginning of Scared Stiff and if you get Scared Stiff the lights go out again.

I have an offer that I have accepted. I will let everyone know if the guy does not follow through.

Sold for now, pending payment.

#29 10 years ago

It seems that I spoke too soon. Game is back on the market.

Again, trades entertained, but I prefer an all cash deal.

$5,400 or best reasonable offer.

#30 10 years ago

Someone pointed out to me the Sample game also has Spiders on the Apron Decals. The production game has the spider web, but not the spiders.

#31 10 years ago

Bump for the Monday Evening Crowd. Lots of lookers, no buyers yet!

Quoted from jkdblaze:

That glow bones picture is making me wish I bought a set from Gene the other day. Very nice!

Careful, the reproduction glow bones are darker and do not glow nearly as well. If you find out differently, then let me know.

Best regards,

Sold pending pickup and payment.

I'll let you guys know if the buyer changes his mind. Thank you to all that inquired.

Tom
