"Punchy the Clown".
Everybody likes clowns.

Much better than "Jack in the Box" above.

Circus (GTB, 1980, SS80), great game, very uncommon now.
I have seen multiples come up for sale lately in the past year or so.
Looking at another right now, that I may buy.
Perfect partner for Genie, even though that is a System 1.
Hardest part to find with both games are NOS backglasses.
Getting nearly unobtainium now, unless you do a BGResto copy.

I know, I would like get that NOS one for my backglass collection.
Not for sale, on his wall, unless he has changed his mind.
I will have to settle for a BGResto version after getting my original scanned.

I am having mine scanned in the next couple of months for reproduction.
Check back with BGResto.com in the early fall, and everything should already be completed.
You can then get a new backglass.
Very few NOS ones exist today, and I have been patiently waiting for one to cross paths (for sale) for over 25 years.
It will probably happen eventually.

Pretty much every major player involved with Interflip is now dead.
A lot of history was not documented prior to the internet and lost to time.
I am sure digging would turn up the artist but you would have to crosscheck other machines of the period such as companies like Inder and Bell.

There are still a couple of these games for sale NIB in Vancouver, BC.
Cabinet and playfield construction was not that great, but the game was solid.
EM backbox mechanics were sufficient, but not BLY/WMS/GTB quality.
$1995 CAD, not outrageous, but not good either.
These have been sitting around for a VERY LONG time, 1978...
