How well do you know your pinball spinners?

Quoted from dothedoo:
See post #72

I did miss that, sorry. I probably thought it was talking about the common diamond shape used on a few. (Adding Liberty Bell with Space Mission)

Oh, Tommy at (2,5)

Sort of on-topic, who made the best spinner?

Old Sterns are pretty good, anyone better than that?

I took the picture at 6,3 on an Amigo machine. I can't find any other playfield picture with that spinner though. In fact the pics on ipdb show three other spinners, all different. Not sure which one if any is the official Amigo spinner.

The magic one or the spaceship one? Definitely not stock for Amigo, either of them. I think Amigo just used a standard spinner (with reused art, if any) originally.

you notice how he carefully cut out the red plastic spinner towers out of the zaccaria one. Those towers are a dead giveaway. Since they are the only ones that do that method.

I guess that explains the strange blue metal bracket.
