one day I will get mine out of storage and get it going
back in the day, this is the game that was everywhere I went, black Knights were hard to find
I have all 4 double level PF games, Just Solar Fire is up ATM. BK is in line to be restored (just got Steve Ritchie to sign my BG at LAX), I just picked up a red Jungle Lord gotta get it restored and up in my line up, (my blue one is in storage awaiting a PF swap to my restored PF. and Pharaoh (my fave of the 4) PF is done and ready to go, but I haven't gotten to the cab yet, someone (previous owner) decided it would be cool to sand all the artwork off and stain it wood color so I'm gonna have to re-stencil it...they're all great classic games!

FYI - I have a stash of half of the yellow plastics used in the red jungle lord in case you have some broken ones...
Great game. Working on getting all 4 of the Williams double level playfield games. JUST NEED A SOLAR FIRE to complete.
Quoted from dementedwarlok:Slim I like that nitro ground shaker. My father used to drag race out at old US 30
Thank you and that's awesome, lot of people I know have good memories of US30. For me, it's mainly time spent at 41 or GLD
You're welcome to come by and play anytime.
Quoted from dementedwarlok:i am the only one BUMP....
You're not even the only one in Highland with one.

Thanks Danczaz I haven't really Had a chance to dig into it. I picked it up from the KY SCS in Feb. I have the BG pulled and sealed ready to touch up, and I'm pretty sure the big plastic that is always broken is broken but other than that I'm not sure. I appreciate the offer and will get with you when I have a chance to get into it more!

Getting ready to tear down one of my games to send out to Outsidedge to make a Hardtop. I realized that when I put the two games side by side the art is different. Check out the staff vs the Beetle and also the different colors.
I just picked up a buddy's Pharaoh to fix it up, get it playing solid and enjoy it for a bit before giving it back to him. Never played the game before last night when I got all of the coils working and I'm definitely looking forward to playing it some more.
I'm just wondering, before I go through the effort, does anyone have a list of all the rubbers used in this machine?
Quoted from Slim64:I have one. It's a very fun game.
Debating about parting with it to change up the collection and find another Williams in the same genre.
If you decide to, let me know.
Quoted from Paulb:I have one for sale on south bend craigslist
Do you still have it available?
I've been working a bit on a Pharaoh for while now, I just removed a pair of operator stickers from the apron and, let's just say, it did not go well. So it got me thinking about trying to make some sort of decal to cover it up. Hopefully it all works out. I haven't tried to color match the decal with the actual art yet, just wanted to see what I could do.

I haven’t entered the Pharaoh’s tomb yet, but I at least brought the tomb home with me! Trying to neutralize some battery acid and purchased a NVRAM... and a lockdown bar. Can’t wait to fire her back up!

Picking up a Pharaoh tonight and would like to build out my own kit. My google searches are coming up with nothing, and the Titan database doesn't have a Pharaoh listed.
Looks like most of the kits out there have 27 pieces.
3 - Standard Flipper
1 - Small Flipper
1 - Shooter Rod Tip
2 - Post Sleeves
2 - Yellow Bumper (can get that part number out of the PPS Parts Catalog)
Totally stumped on the remaining 18 ring sizes/quantities.
Thanks for any help!
So I picked up my new Pharaoh machine tonight. Then decided to break it down to fix some structural issues with the base, it was falling out...also need to fix a poor attempt at replacing the back side of the cabinet someone did in the past...should be a fun project.
Then some light bondo work, touch up paint, shop job, new alternate translite/bg.

This game doesnt get nearly enough love!
Pharaoh was the first game I bought, and I think it will be the last one I consider selling. I just love the art, the call outs, the magna saves, everything.
Also, in multiball, trying desperately to keep both balls either in play or together on the upper pf is just awesome.
One thing I've been thinking about though, is the sound board. I've only played my Pharaoh, and Im pretty sure noone ever changed any caps or other components on the soundboard.
Anyone here replaced the caps and/or other components on the soundboard?
Did the "sharpness" of the samplings improve/etc?
I'm thinning my pinball collection, due to my job being impacted by corona virus. Check the Minneapolis Craig's List if you want a Pharaoh and live near me.
Unexpectedly joined the Pharaoh club today. Long story short this older fellow had one in his basement, and he just wanted it gone. I went in blind expecting a pretty worn out table, and wow, it is actually in pretty good shape. Electronically it needs a lot of work, leaky batteries, botched wiring fix on the GI power, but damn, the backglass is almost flawless. Playfield is okay, no raw spots but the inserts are sort of raised in a lot of places.

Have you found the hidden female bodys in the backglass?
