Looks like Vic is starting to use LED's. 
Fast blinkers are one the giveaways along with the bright whites on the Score Wheels.

All the flashing/blinking bulbs are #455 vintage NOS bulbs i bought on Ebay sometime ago and weren't cheap.These NOS bulbs are very fast and last a long time, so i put them in all 36 games in my collection.
Behind the score reels are #55 vintage NOS bulbs that seem to never need replacing and brighten up the score reel area. I also use #55's under the plastics and under the playfield lens. I haven't had any problems with higher heat temperatures at all anywhere i installed them.
Only a few LED's are in the North Star i just aquired and kept a few in the game to see what they were like.

I too love the fast blinking of those vintage bulbs. I wish the LED guys would put one out that could compete/ emulate that color and blink rate! 
Also good to know about #55 use.
MAN! Those games are mint!
BTW....great video! I hate seeing videos of guys flying by the EM's just to get to the TKO! Nice to see the whole game! 
Thanks!
Now all my games look like junk! I've never seen so many perfect backglasses in a collection!

Well you fooled me on those as you just don't see those much anymore. Nice find with the vintage bulbs as they are super hard to find.

At least I was right about one of them. 
It will be interesting to hear what you think about the LEDS in it down the road.

Quoted from Collin:Awesome video! Pretty much akin to strong pornography.
Let's just call it "Pin-ography"

That is AWESOME! The smell in there would be like perfume to me. Your dedication is loudly applauded Sir.
