Hi Pinsiders

thought it felt right to jump in for my first post into familliar territory!

I live in Adelaide South Australia and am a regular poster on the
Australian Pinball talkfest www.aussiearcade.com.au

My first machine was a ZZZ Devil Riders and now I have 9 machines
from the Brothers Zaccaria / Mr Game

They are amazing in so many ways...build quality (lots of chrome & non yellowing plastics),
vibrant artwork by Lorenzo Rimondini & innovative thinking that took the 3 ZZZ Brothers boldly
outside the "box" when it came to designing that which had not been done before.....neon lights, 3D molded backbox inserts, headphone jacks!, clever PF/backbox mechs & multi level play

Starting with Pinball Champ 82 the pinball world was introduced to a clear upper
playfield, above and beyond that of a full sized standard PF with extra "real estate"
afforded by the introduction of an "elevated shooter habit rail" rather than the
traditional shooter lane............more PF means more artwork!

If like me you love DROP TARGETS, the ZZZ games are fast, fun & for you

David Gersic has helped me out on many occasions & sourced my FARFALLA
straight out of the home of pinball, Chicago I.L!

The sweet butterfly girl will punish you with very fast gameplay so bring
your A game if you ever get the chance to step up to the plate

I have enjoyed reading & learning a lot about pinball US style and hope to
be able to contribute to more discussions on all things ZZZ in the future

cheers

Hi G

when I saw the basement lineup photo with DG standing in front I immediately
thought "I want THAT!", it was inspiring to see them all in a row

Its taken a lot of time & effort to track down my beautiful machines which
have come from Germany, Italy, Chicago, plus Australian delivered ones too
and they have been very easy to restore with the "hardware" never broken
eg I have never had a broken plastic! and the "software" boards side of things
an easy fixed by sending them off to DG

Then theres the "white inserts" which are great as you can choose your own
LED colours to match the art & light sequences for even more vibrancy

do you still have your ZZZ's GAP?
