Title: Gottlieb Black Hole Pinball
Post by: Hungry Horace on October 02, 2008, 12:05:31 PM
Anemos asked for some pictures of my latest purchase, so, havingjust had the machine serviced, i thought i'd oblige.


I'm told that not only is this machine extremely collectable, but this one is in very good condition  :D

Horace, bet you cant get on it. Bet your CD32 is kicked to 1 side and your mum is on it all the time, ;).

That looks quality Horrace!

I thnik my bro is going to possibly get a pinball table next to complement his arcade machine collection.

If I had the room and money I'd get somehting like this too. :)

funnily enough FOL, the CD32 is right next to it!!


so far i've had it serviced, and 'tweeked' a couple of things that were missed myself (the blue panel for the lower playfield wasnt flush, so the ball could get caught on the edge for example... now fixed!)

now its running perfectly, and it's hard to get myself off it tbh!!

i've asked the guy who serviced it to let me know if he gets hold of the extra sound board for it... i'd love to have the speech on it as well!
/me now has to avoid going back to play on it more


babbon, any ideas which machine your brother is considering? I only purchased this because i fell in love with it 20 years ago in the south of France. (how romantic  :-* )
