Pinball Mods Brasil
Quoted from Isochronic_Frost:My favorite, near-unobtainium bootlegs!
Love your videos and the pinheads down in Brazil! Keep up the great work!
Thanks Isochronic!! Yeah, they were good in bootleging the Bally/Williams classics! Good for us! With the prohibition of importing itens during the 80´s here in Brazil, Taito really saved us with those pinball machines!
Quoted from ForceFlow:I had no idea Taito's were designed with replaceable TIP modules under the playfield for the solenoids. That's fascinating.[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
Thx, ForceFlow! Most of enthusiasts, even here in Brazil, do not know it! Agreed, it´s fascinating!
Quoted from Guina:I follow Paulo's YouTube channel, an easy-to-understand channel, this is very good for hobby hobbyists
Thank you, Guina!! Not just for these words, but also for being directly responsible for the amount of awesome modern american pinball machines that we have in Brazil nowadays. And our GNR are finally coming? I wanna play! 
Quoted from iure_DJX:Amazing video Paulo!
A lot of people tell short stories about Taito.
But you kick it in 12 minutes!
Obvious there is a lot more to tell, but you did a great job to our fellows from others countries.
Now they know what we use to play at 70's 80's and 90's when finally we were able to bring machines again from U.S.
Congrats
Iure, thanks a lot, very nice hearing it from one of the greatest experts in brazilian pinball history! You, Cid, Kobe and other fellow brazilian collector friends are the guys who really began to open that door, presenting our pinball history to other countries, on that Chicago Expo! It was 2010? Really nice story, you did made a good job! Just trying to keep that door open, my friend. 
Quoted from Leonardogit:Great video Paulo
The Taito history is very fascinating and much peoples don't know nothing about this, amazing job make a video talking about the great pinball factory from Brazil
I love Taito pinball machines
Leo, thank you!! Here in Brazil we need more young and new guys like you in pinball, that love these machines as much as we do! 
Quoted from fabiofpc:Fantastic video Paulo!! I never heard the story about the games that were dropped into the ocean!!
Congrats again!!
Thank you, Fabio!!! Yeah, we have a lot of terror stories like this, unfortunately! From pinball machines thrown away in the ocean or in the rivers, to Taitos transformed in chicken houses! Thanks for always promoting our hobby during all these years and for being such a great guy!
Quoted from KobePinball:Congratulations Paulo is the best explanatory video about Taito and the Brazilian pinball.
Kobe, really nice words, mainly coming from you! One of the biggest enthusiasts in brazilian pinball, who has the most amazing pinball location that I ever saw, not just in Brazil: Old School Pinball Experience!! Thank you!
Quoted from gdonovan:Excellent video, makes me want to purchase pin from Brazil now
Gdonovan, Im glad that the video caused this effect in you! Taito are really great pinball machines. Here in Brazil, we love it , and sometimes they worth more than the original american inspiration one. Thank you!
Quoted from dmarston:Question for any Brazilians who can remember 50 years ago: what information do you have about Gottlieb games made specifically for Brazil? Historian interest centers around Card Trix (IPDB #3748) and Psychedelic (IPDB #1873), but there could be other single-player add-a-ball games from the 1970-71 era that were exported to Brazil. Or maybe Gottlieb made most of the parts and final assembly was done in Brazil. Any clues?
.................David Marston
Dmarston, this one I will pass, since 50 years ago I wasn´t even born 
But I will talk with some good old friends. If they know something, I will bring it here, ok?
Thx!
