    The backglass has the name Sunset on it. Edit, 1962 Gottlieb Sunset.

    Half way through the show the pin is sitting on the floor, up right, still was not destroyed. Looks like no real pinball parts were actually used in the show.

    Would using metal from a pin cause forging problems? Chrome and nickel plating on the legs. The side rails and part of the lock down bar are stainless steel. The ends of the lock down bar appear to be chromed pot metal. The producers must have thought that using the pinball machine was an interesting idea. Then realizing that it couldn't be a viable TV show, and then creating parts that would work, and hopefully the viewers would not notice.
