Multi pitch, 2 player and homerun ramps. If this game had a mechanical running man unit it would have it all.
yea, true dat... if it was just a tad closer, i could live without the running man, given the other features... the multi-pitch feature is a neat one...
looking closer, it is actually called "bullseye baseball"... since it came from canobie lake park, and they bought it in the early 80's, it's likely that i played this actual machine several times, as i spent quite a bit of time there in the late 70's/early 80's...

i guess it never occurred to chicago coin that they could have put some of this stuff in the cabinet rather than the head...

Quoted from John_in_NC:Nice restoration material at post restore pricing! I want one but not anywhere near that bad.

i too want one of these, but that price is outrageous...
Quoted from hoov:Boilerman has been looking for a Flying Carpet..........
just dropped him a pm about it... 
it would be a haul to go get, but if it is as nice as it appears to be for 350, it might be worth the trip for him...

williams jackpot - $150 - spotsylania (va)
the duct tape (?) over the shooter rod hole doesn't build confidence, but for $150 if someone is close it might be worth a look...
Quoted from DirtFlipper:Gtb Big Shot for $300:
delaware.craigslist.org link
Was able to pick up the Big Shot.
Overall in great shape. Cleanest machine inside I've ever picked up.
Drop targets need work big time. Gummed up, etc
I took the whole one bank apart and they drop ok now, but don't want to reset. It doesn't seem to energize long enough. Tries to pop up and then drops.
BG nice. Couple cracks in center.
PF overall very good.
Will post pics later in a new thread.
Will need everyone's help.
Bert
Congrats on the Big Shot. It may be a different set up but a had a similar drop target reset issue on a Gold Strike I owned. If I remember there were two coils used to reset the large bank. Each had it's own fuse and one was blown on mine causing the problem. Just spitballing as your configuration may be entirely different.
Alex
check the motor switch it might have a bad contact . turn the lights out and look at the motor switches as the bank tried to reset. you might see a blue spark. clean those contact and adjust them a bit and try again.
I find that if the bank just bumps and doesn't make a full stroke it is the motor switch.
worth a try

'College Queens' is the name of the game...

I know ^^ just going from the description it added a little bit of adventure to it.
Ummm... Isn't the actual name of the game adventurous enough???
"Honey, I'm gonna pick up some College Queens in my truck..."

y'know, i'm looking for another project, but that is some truly bad artwork on that game... could he have made the girls look any more miserable?
Quoted from ccotenj:could he have made the girls look any more miserable?
Maybe that artwork was to keep the wife /gf from getting jealous.

1966 Gottlieb Subway EM Pinball Machine - $900 (Brookfield) <<Animated Bg.
milwaukee.craigslist.org link
Art Steinholm was not my favorite Gottleib artist by a long shot. He always drew the faces kind of weird with extra long, pointy noses. Maybe we should call that the pointy nose people, sort of like the pointy people era from Bally/Williams with Christian Marche artwork.

aab version of cross town (a recent "no call back" on cl)... i think his production numbers are off though, it would be pretty rare to have more aab's produced than replays?

The guy up here has had these listed many times on CL. Extra Inning is neither an AAB nor replay game. I guess you could argue that makes it really rare, but honestly, doesn't get good game play reviews and I wouldn't touch it. The other one......well BG is unobtanium so the question is moot!

Yes... Its been listed a number of times.
Interesting in that it is somewhat similiar in design to 'Big Hit', except no pop bumbers/drop targets... Only 350 units made though. I like the artwork too.
I wouldn't mind trying it to judge game play myself.
Quoted from IntoPinball:I wouldn't mind trying it to judge game play myself.
Good call. I used to let gameplay reviews and opinions influence my game purchases. After awhile I learned it is often very subjective and had some disappointments and pleasant surprises along the way.
