    Quoted from jmountjoy111:

    I was waiting for someone to call it. Lol

    Oh yes i posted that again in the Catacomb club at the end of one of my posts , He even asked if i could fix it , i said no lol. just put a new one in and make the game reliable i told him , he saw my side and agreed ,that god! ,
    might be good for parts , but id spent over 40 hours on the catacomb already for the guy , rebuiding /restoring and i couldnt really be bothered with that monster job , it needs a lot of work
    Oh not shown in the pic , but several badly burnt transistors with destroyed tracks etc

    Fuse(s) found on a Stern/LAI Cosmic Princess. Both look okay! I won't be re-using them though

    Quoted from pacmanretro:

    Many people LOVE how machines come with a rack to keep spare balls in!

    I asked the local pinball service guy that same question back in the 1980's . Don't remember his reply though
    Good guy but , he always put some credits in the game before he left.
