I got this machine last fall. Need to make room for a new pin. This is a 1995 Gottlieb, very rare Machine has no errors, fully working, dmd is good, BG is good.

Cabinet - 7? Great condition but a few scuffs and nicks on the head and back.
PF - 6 or 7? has some wear on the inserts and the dive hole. Otherwise it is great. See pics
BG - 9 maybe has one small wear spot.

I put all new balls in, one is a black one with an eye engraved (dennis hoppers eye ). LED's in GI and inserts. New rubber kit (I installed a few I could reach without removing PF things). New Deez motor, not installed yet. Owners manual/instructions included. Keys for both backbox and coin door. WW key chain! New flipper bats.

The only issue currently is the deez once in a bluemoon will not turn all the way over. This is why I purchased the new deez motor. Just have not yet installed it.

Not looking to make money, just get whats in it. $1200 OBO

EDIT: new legs, protectors, ROM, plunger, motor and switch for deez installed, new lights for flashers

Are you going to keep the water theme going with your next pin?

Why do some people's pictures of their pins get loaded in sideways, and others don't?

Nice pin.

BAH! I don't know! I took it from my iPad and they were proper on my pc.

This goes on craigslist this afternoon. Ya the cabinet is very good shape, inside is clean and has all the slips, paperwork and a wire loopback plug (for testing?). Sad to sell my first pin, but alas, we all go through changes right? and I'd love someone else to get this and love it. I'll put all the extra parts/books etc. in a box for it.

If this doesn't sell or I end up keeping it some how. I was going to do EL wire on the water ramp and some WW toys on the PF.

For voltage change at the transformer. The nice thing about Gottlieb System 3s is that they included jumper plugs for all of their machines. 100, 110, 220, and a couple of more I believe. They were color coded as well, so it made switching voltages a breeze.

Knowledge is power

These System 3s are the bastard children of the pinball world, I personally love them, so sharing the love is something I enjoy doing .

Good luck on your sale, Waterworld is a fun game, and one that has escaped my System 3 collecting powers so far...

I should simply because two System 3s are leaving the collection this week (Gladiators and Mario Andretti). That only leaves me with 1812, Super Mario Brothers and Rescue 911..... Waterworld is doghouse territory though, as I am picking up three more machines tomorrow- Funhouse, Eight Ball Champ, and Buck Rogers. My wife is super cool and has never grumbled once about pin collecting in the last 12 years, but every once in awhile, I can read her mind via eye gestures, Waterworld would definitely mind melt me...LOL

Dude, Dennis Hopper would bring love and joy into your home. Sinking the Deez 4 ball multiball what what! Even a 2 ball multiball skill shot I've been scared a couple times walking into the dark basement only to see hopper and his 1 eye starring at me

I think I may of figured out the boat turning issue, which from another owner says it happens to theirs as well. I think it is actually the microswitch behind the motor, not the motor itself. I have one on order and will put that in once I get it. New motor will just be a spare, and will be included with the machine.

Switch and motor for deez are both replaced. Played some games and it seems to work great. Put new bulbs in flashers and plunger (sleeve too).

I have one person from CL interested and coming to look now that the motor is replaced.

Have you listed it on MPLS craigslist yet? You're more than welcome to leave it at my place and list it. I'd be happy to show it to potential buyers and whatnot.
