Up for grabs is a Data East Tommy one of 10 prototypes. This is your chance to own a piece of pinball history.
The playfield is in fine shape as well as the cabinet, but no major attempts have been made to touch up or modify this pure prototype by me.
All original boards and parts, except new data east logo flipper bats, and new coil sleeves.
The game is significantly different than the production model and shows process, parts, and R&D evidence.
Notable distinctions:
- 6 pop bumpers.
- chime box in addition to board driven sound.
- Left orbit holds ball and delivers to airplane via VUk.
- Ball drops from Airplane in upper bumper pool.
- Shaker motor.
- different style bank targets.
- Plastic versus metal ramps.
- some like this one, do not have the blinders.

“10 pre-production prototypes were also made for promotional use in conjunction with the off-Broadway productions. These prototypes had six pop bumpers were as the production version only has 3. The game made its debut at the Hard Rock Cafe in Dallas in October of 1993, one of these games fell off the truck and was destroyed. Another was used in the 1993 Macy's.
It’s my understanding this is one of the parade games.
Here’s some parade footage.

This game recently had a topside tear down, and through cleaning, with new rubbers, flipper rebuild, coils sleeves, de logo flipper bats, and comet LEDs added to the GI only to enhance the lighting (completely reversible)
Bulletproof packing and shipping is no problem. Apx $600 anywhere in the lower 48 fully insured.
