Played this game a lot in the 70's, great game, fairly fast for an EM. The out lanes and lower targets are brutal. The play field and bg look in great shape.
Congrats. I've had mine for about 8 years now. Good flippers and pop-bumpers are key to game flow. Tough to get all the drop targets down and it's tough to win on points too.
Congrats on adding a Gottlieb e-m drop target game to your collection.
Per your collection listed here on Pinside, it appears this is your first e-m. ??
Let us know how you like those outlanes.
Watch your cursing while playing this one.
Imho that playfield qualifies as an "open" style playfield.

I have 3 othere ems triple strike, Aladdin castle and jive time. But those are just shop games. ran out of room in the house and now running out of room in the shop.
Its a fun game. I bought it without turning it on. plugged it in and the only thing I have to do is clean the switches on the 10 point reel. Otherwise it works 100%.
this may get me kicked out of the em club, but they don't look completely horrible stained... they don't look "right", but they don't look completely horrible...
it certainly looks better than some of the more creative paint jobs we've seen...

OK Chris, Now your treading on thin ice! Your EM privileges may be in jeopardy.

It takes a man to admit that in front of his peers. Yeah, it beats the contact paper or solid poop brown house paint, but only by a thin margin. Well, if they would have added some finish to give it a bit of sheen it could at least look like a piece of furniture. And take the legs off when your sanding…
I just bought one of these, and its in really rough shape
Could anyone please help me with a manual or schematics and the stencil artwork and plastics if you have please?

have a set of stencils if you want to repaint it
Hi, if he doesn’t want the stencils, pls let me know. I have a painted white DaC. Been going to strip paint “someday” but pretty sure original is trashed beneath white.
Oops, just noticed 3 yr old post. But if anyone does have stencils......
