I found a couple pretty high res pics, though they aren't from the best angles & parts are blurry, trying to attach them here but the attachments aren't working for me for some reason. I found a couple more that are OK, not quite as high rez as the others I found, but not bad & probably better suited for VP resources, I at least think they are better than a flyer scan & one has a good shot of most upper PF plastics.
I'll upload them shortly.

Also, I'll be seeing this pin in person in august. I can take a ton of pics of it then, if you guys decide you might want to wait a few months or don't find anything better in the meantime. Of course any pics I take then will be pretty sweet, got a 14 megapixel Canon. Only thing better than what I can take then would be high rez stripped PF pics & plastic scans, but since this is a kinda rare table, not sure if those are gonna pop up anytime soon.

I took some artistic liberty with the left slingshot plastic - hoping TAB's friend comes through with a set of clearer pictures of the plastics so that I can make it look accurate! Here's what I have so far:

p.s. working with vectors is very forgiving because it becomes very easy to edit - especially when using MANY layers. If the line isn't curved properly, simply adjust the 'tail' until it's accurate.

Thinking we wait a little bit.
If we do the plastics in this way we must also redraw the PF. Instead it looks too different.

Ya know... we wouldn't mind seeing a full re-draw and a nice FS version of this table being done.

Given enough time, and a stripped playfield I think I could pull it off, I need to find the little spaceship decal for the playfield too! I saw that once and I lost it.

p.s. never mind, I remembered that the playfield insert was at ipdb.org - I'll retrace that today and post it later.

Yeah Kruge, do this table some justice. Raise that bar nice and high.

You're joking right?? Have you seen what Grizz and Hassanchop can do?!? I mean really, I just started re-tracing last year, those guys have probably been doing this since they were born!!

Slapping on redrawn plastics on a low rez PF doesnt sound like high standards. I was merly stating that this table deserves more then that and am glad you are doing it up right.

OK, here are a handful of pics I found, I may have more buried somewhere but these were easy to find. Maybe not the motherload of robowar pics, but maybe resources than a flyer image.
& as a bonus I threw in a high rez cabinet pic (though its a tad blurry) & a pic of the scoring panel above the backglass but the backglass itself is kinda washed out by the flash. I assume there is already good backglass pics out there. If not I have more of those.

THANKS Rob!! This is better than nothing, lets hope TAB's buddy comes through with more pics!

I still wish there was a 300dpi scan of a playfield but that's just wishful thinking.

Todd.

Thanks rob

Here is a nice robo-war page. Pics are very high res, but are very nice.

Nice bumper cap image, perfect for VP...

Thanks again Rob. Sadly, TAB and I already found those pics at the "lotsapins" link and the owner no longer has the Robo-War machine. Also, the pics are not clear enough of the plastics so we are back to guessing on the details.

I keep hoping that better, higher quality pics will be found.

You see my big flyer on the startpage
There i meet a Gottlieb collector. Mailing with him is very difficult, so hoping in this way can be sucessful. Also with other machines

[TAB]

GOT STRIPPED PICS AND SOME PLASTICS
The pics needs very much work, but biggest thanks Heba

If someone will work on this table... At this moment no free space in my brain. Spectra looks easy but so much work. For one apron worked 6 hours today

[TAB]

Wanted upload a stripped PF. Didn't work at this moment - try it later.
But here a screeny of my worked one
Thanks Heba with helping pics

Oh, about robo-war, I think I had found new & better pics a couple months ago. I'll upload them when I get a chance. In fact, I might see a robo-war in person next weekend, & if so I'll grab pics.
TAB do you have plastic scans or just plastic pics?

Yes have pics - but very dark. Not good to use.
