Hey all,

  I found myself another hidden treasure, a Williams Blackout. Needs a good shop job and possibly a board refresh, but otherwise it is very nice. Glass and playfield in great shape.

Opinions on the game? I played it briefly once. Thought it was good. I have a Firepower and Barracora... how does it compare to these? I am picking it up... just might end up cleaning it, clearcoating it, and sell it if not a keeper.


Retiring soon...

    I had a couple of them. I thought it was a similiar style to Firepower with decent gameplay but not quite up to Firepower's level. Hard to find in nice shape for sure, especially the backglass.


Rebuilding...currently Scared Stiff, Guns N'Roses, Bally Harley Davidson, Fish tales, Slugfest, JVL Conquest standup,and a Wurlitzer Juke.

Great game. There's some fun shots, especially the orbit. 3 spinners and a helping of drops. Cool sounds, too.

Warlok is very similar and I played one of those to death at Expo last year. Couldn't get enough and would have bought it if it was for sale.
