Quoted from TopMoose:

The one in the last photo is a Majors (Chicago Coin, 1941).
ed: It actually looks like there might be two Chicago Coin Majors. The other one seems to be a Twenty Grand (Williams, 1952).

outSTANDing, thank you!

I've linked Twenty Grand to the topic. Interestingly, i can't find Majors in the "Machines" section of the site... It's this machine, yes? https://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=1530

No, it’s the 1941 Majors:

One more correction: I think there are three Majors in that scene - two over by the Twenty Grand and a third across the room, between the door and the slot machines.

From one of the worst sequels of all time, Caddyshack 2. Looks like Ty has a Fireball, Paragon and a Disco Fever.

#high-speed and Space Shuttle seen in the terrific movie "By Dawn's Early Light" about nuclear war with the Soviet Union. Also looks like perhaps an Afterburner upright arcade machine (or something similar) and another unknown pin all the way on the right side (perhaps Jokerz or another System 11??)

The third pin next to the After Burner looks like it's a Flight 2000.

Okay, so it's defiantly a pin, but not Flight 2000.

Pins in bad movies seem to be finding me lately. FanboyFlicks did a fun review on this one.
This movie goes by many names; Champagne and Bullets, Road to Revenge, and if you watch Red Letter Media, you might know it as Geteven.

Huh, I searched the key topics index so only saw the diner scene with Night Rider listed. Oops

On the topic index, did you click "keypost summary" to sort the list alphabetically? That makes it a LOT easier to find what's been posted already.
