I am very happy and honored to be able to bring to the VP world my very first table built from scratch. This table has never been seen in VP before.

Big thanks to Grizz, Rascal, Bob5453 for their help on this project. It would not have happened without them.

Man, I played this a TON back in the day. We used to put this one on coke cans and get the vari-targets stuck to get replays.
Bad bad boys..... This looks terrific, can't wait to fire it up and reminisce.

Nice release monk. Any chance of a FS version of this?

Great table, Sabbat.
Already at the 2nd game I scarce reached 4.000 points. Maybe I was just lucky.
Thanks for a nice surprise.

Wow this is so cool. I remember playing this pinball machine in an arcade when i was a young teenager. Well done Sabbat.

I just played a few games and reached a high score of 5646 and 24 runs.

This game brings back a lot of memories.

Thank you so much.

[Sabbat]

You're all very welcome and I'm glad that i have brought back memories. I forgot to mention that if you press the "R" key the rules are displayed.

[Bob5453]

Thanks Freddie! The table physics and settings are top notch, you da man.

[KEG]

Great job Freddie. Table looks and plays fantastic. Pat your self on the back man, you nailed this one. I love it.
Thanks also to all involved.

P.S. Maybe you should have got Faralos involved in this table too so he could have taught you how to make his trademark plunger.

Looking amazing.. THX.... Hoping for a FS version or B2S also.....

[Sabbat]

dmrich, if possible could you take pics of behind the backglass? The match lights on my version is guess work of where they are located.
