Cast your vote for best looking pin from the golden age. Sadly there are only nine options so honorable mentions are welcome but keep em early eighties late seventies will ya.

#2 11 years ago

Centaur hands down always was always will be no contest!

I'd go Paragon second.

#3 11 years ago

Which one of these weighs less than 350 pounds?
In looks , I gotta go with Gorgar, Odin's son.

#4 11 years ago

Put your vote in then man bump him up from 0% to 25%

Done! You could have included space invaders pin too! I played one last night. Wickedly evil looking. And damn heavy too!

#6 11 years ago

Linked it to the topic if that helps, so many that could squeeze in.

Fathom

#8 11 years ago

I picked Fathom too with Paragon a very close second. Centaur would be it for me if it had a better backglass.

Backglass only Paragon is my favorite.

#10 11 years ago
Quoted from TheLaw:

Backglass only Paragon is my favorite.

It's pretty, but if only you could have seen that mirrored Space Invaders next to it last night. (Yes, we got into a time machine and picked up a Whirlwind last night)

#11 11 years ago

Only one Paragon vote so far, crazy.

#12 11 years ago

Nice, a vote for Star Gazer, beauty.

#13 11 years ago

Fathom running away with it, Paragon making ground.

#14 11 years ago

Centaur making a comeback.

#15 11 years ago

I voted Centaur. Paragon would have probably been my second.

#16 11 years ago

I remember Xenon when it came out as a kid and not being able to believe how advanced it seemed...

#17 11 years ago

Xenon is still pretty darn cool!

#18 11 years ago

It's Xenon and Fathom for me, but Xenon wins because it has the mirrored backglass going for it.

#19 11 years ago

Nice Xenon with a comeback.

#21 11 years ago

Fathom with a bullet for me, but it's nice to see my Genie get some love. All of the pins on this poll are lookers.

#22 11 years ago
Quoted from Jesterfunhouse:

I remember Xenon when it came out as a kid and not being able to believe how advanced it seemed...

That was me when I first played Fireball. IMO Black Knight set the standard for advancement once the 80s arrived.

#23 11 years ago

No love for Medusa so far.

#24 11 years ago
Quoted from schwarz:

No love for Medusa so far.

Yeah that's maybe the only one I'm not familiar with.

Bumpin

#29 11 years ago

Medusa for me, Centaur a close second!

#30 11 years ago

On that list Fathom and Centaur.

Runners up Medusa and Xenon.

#31 11 years ago

Golden age?

#32 11 years ago

Sticking with the 'best looking', I had to vote Fathom. Centaur then Xenon next.

For game play though Fathom would fall to the middle. Centaur #1.
