I know many members here like to hate on Bally/Williams 1994 Popeye, but there are also many of us here that really enjoy this game as well. This is my first Pin to own as an adult and I have really made it the best playing and most reliable Popeye that I have seen.
The main point of this thread is to share my various modifications with the forum, I know there will be plenty of "why did you put this much effort into a Popeye", and I understand that view, but to me I wanted this pin to be better then new and bring it to beyond today's standards and I feel like so far I have achieved this goal, and everyone who has played this table seems to really enjoy the experience.
