    Quoted from Wickerman2:

    Do you just splice in a wire/socket on to the light next to it?

    Yes, I do.

    Quoted from dtown:

    I gotta admit that resetting drops would make many of these games much more enjoyable for long term play.
    Take High Hand (which is not listed). I love the BG on this game and I know a guy who's eventually going to part with his. But, once you drop all the targets...not much to do. If I ever wrench this game from the guy, a resetting drop target mod would be something I'd be into.

    I agree with you, once you drop all the targets...not much to do....

    Very easy for this technical improvement, you can be inspired by the schematic in this topic :

    did you make them custom?

    These metal cards target come from an old roto target (from a Close Encounters - SS version).

    Try to contact Steve Young's from PBR :

    Quoted from jrpinball:

    Then why is it speaking English?

    Because Gottlieb was an American company which exported in the world !
