I was fortunate enough to find this real machine a few days ago. I had a blast playing it and so I have come back to this vp8 recreation, thanks for making this JP. It will look real sweet with the new alpha ramps in the future!

I actually own this machine and it is quite fun. I didn't realize there was a table for it! Will have to give it a try.

I really like this table in the flesh too. Had one in the arcade I worked at in the 90s. Good times.

I went digging around to see if I could find high-res closeup shots, or a good playfield image to maybe try to re-draw it for a modern update -- but failed.

HEY Sabbat!!!

I'm really looking hard material (photographic) to pass to JP this machine, if you or someone you please take pictures so that the zenith has new graphics and can be updated.

thanks

I had one of these sitting in my driveway last year. I was buying a new pin, the guy had this & a BK2K in his truck, both good shape. I looked at both, & the Time Machine actually looked more like my kind of pin, & was much cheaper than the BK2K. But when you got a classic like BK2K sitting in your driveway looking for a home, you just can't pass it up. Williams wins again.
I only wish I had space for a 5th pin cuz I would of gladly taken both. Time Machine is one of the few DE pins I might own, but in a small collection & living in a rural area, its important that I have pins that I can easily sell when the time comes, & a game like BK2K I shouldn't have much trouble with!

That said, I don't believe I ever did get to play a Time Machine. Never came across one that I remember at the couple shows I've been to, & I don't recall PAPA having one among their hundreds of pins, which I'll be going to on saturday. I need to give this VP version a shot. I remember the cool thing I liked about TM when looking it over was the guy talked about how in the 50's or whatever the game reverts to actual EM chimes. Very clever.

Here is a link to some of the pics I had. Most are pretty decent & high rez, though nothing stripped.
