Quoted from ultimategameroom:

See post #573 on pg 12 of this topic for the creature model.

The full story of how I got the model from john Trudeau is under the topic
"See CFTBL found photo of original model used for halo gram. Need your help". My computer skills suck or I would have linked the topic.

Bumping this thread so I can get my "Holy Crap That Is COOOOOL" fix...

My mystery castle has an original sheet of Zaccaria playfield glass. Not sure how common that is anymore, but the people I know with Zaccarias didn't even know it existed.

A South Park at my local (kind of trashy) arcade has this glass in it. I know the guy. Worth buying him a new sheet of glass in exchange?

Original sheets of zaccaria playfield glass are not rare in Europe.
I have had several pins with zzz glass...

Except the game was made in europe so anything zaccaria is not nearly as rare. I know a few people who have zaccaria pins and none have the original glass. Similar to having a stern with the orginal made in the usa sticker on the glass.

Value this like I would any used pf glass, nill. Going to trade it to a friend with a devil riders. All I want in return is a replacement used glass lol

I've got one of those too Same un-used condition, but mine is a medium. Do you have the 'cheesy' certificate too? I think they only made about 10 or so. Weren't they gifts to the AFM team from Brian Eddy?

#920 7 years ago

Hello.
Here is cirqus voltaire prototype
Different playfield with original skinny head, shady bottom, different plastics and so on...
This playfiled is the adaptation of the original color drawing I d guess.

No cheese with this jacket unfortunately.

The first sets of the jacket were given to the design team, then WMS employees (including other designers), and the rest were spread out between support staff, distributors, large operators, shows, and demonstrations.

Most of the remaining jackets that float around today were those given to distributors for support.

In this particular case, I have no idea how many were made.
If I had to guess a couple hundred, as they are very well made, embroidered, insulated, and well stitched.
Not a "cheapo" jacket.

I would not expect PPS to be giving out a jacket when AFMr goes into production eventually.

Thanks for the info, I didn't realize that there were more than just the design team.

I do have the certificate that came with it.

ZIIIIIING!

Actually I bought my first pinball machine in 2007 so closer to 10 years in the hobby, THANKS

If you are interested, do a quick search around the internet. Steve Ritchie and others in the industry have worn the jacket on several occassions and were captured in photos and during events.

#926 7 years ago

Not mine, but it needs to be here.
Based on a TAF whitewood playfield, that was used for testing clearcoat.

The cabinet was former garageband, the red was overpainted, no sprenkels on the outside.

On the AGC note, a former contribution by an owner to pinball history of a NOS Mystery Castle backglass to my collection, which I am now finally getting around to framing.

I thought back then Brian Eddy had gotten these together and was selling them. I had purchased a couple.

Quoted from chad:

The design team initiated, WMS liked the idea for promotion and supported it, although a bit more expensive.
Whoever made them did a good job over most of the cheap T-shirts that normally floated around.
I don't know who first brought up the idea.
Mr. Eddy or another would have to confirm.
Might become a "hot" item again soon, I suppose.
Still have no idea how many made, only WMS personnel could help.
Mine is distro passed along from an old show.

Managed to pick up a Tecnoplay X Force yesterday. The game seems to be in great shape but if anyone has any spares they'd be willing to sell them please give me a shout

Another item from my artwork archives.

32x24" promotional poster signed on the backside by Python Anghelo in the 1990s.
Cross hybrid artwork for the pinball and video stand up arcade game.

I have no idea how many were originally made, but probably more than the 50 or so Pinball Circus 24x36" posters.

I recently bought another one of these unsigned.
Giving it to a fellow collector friend who owns the the H2H pinball as a gift for backglass assistance regarding another hard to find title.

The vibrancy of the hard print is still superb after over 35+ years.

That's a cool piece for sure. We've seen some amazing stuff since this post started something like two years ago. I never intended it for people to show off there actual games but just there STUFF but it's all good stuff for sure so lets keep it going.

Nice! I have an original and a repro joust poster as well (I don't believe mine is signed)... wish I could find an original centipede poster with the archer on the bottom, I have a repro, but not an original

This is so cool. I have some items signed by Python (including Pinbot backglass art that I should be getting this week). He was a truly unique person. His passing was a great loss to pinball.

Prints are cool, but how about some original Paul Faris artwork? Here's some early Xenon and Centaur art by Paul, all signed and part of my personal collection.
