I do.
The BG is rough, and typical PF wear on some inserts, and the upper PF, but I love the game.
I wish they had added more GI to the game, it is pretty dark, I intend to add some GI to the right side.
I have already added flashers to the drop target reset circuits, as well as the slingshots, and kickers. It adds a little light, although I am likely the only one that will notice...

And I should thank Mindstorm (Bruno), if it weren't for him, I would still have no sound!


Wow, I still have 939 characters left to use in my signature!

I just picked one up last week and I love it.  Some issues... backglass is not great, playfield wear and a flipper that needs some tlc but it is great to play.  This is one that will be in my house for a long time I think.

I have a Black Knight as well and it desperately needs my attention.  I had it all working a while back, but has some problems at the moment and needs to be shopped.  I appreciate the playability on this game but don't like the dated sounds.  I'm shopping out two other games at the moment so I don't think I'll get to this game for a while.

Each to their own, however I find the sound to be one of the key elements of what makes this game great. Williams arcade sounds of Robotron and Defender can be found in the game, awesome! Not to mention the speech and that BELL!!Get her workin again you might change your mind

Mayfair is the only place to get the back glass for this game IMHO they had NOS and repro and I dont believe you can tell the difference.

Add me to the list! I picked up my BK back in Sept. I was searching for almost a year for a nice example and finally got one from Dave Astill.

I don't care about the naysayers, this game is the epitome of great pinball. The sounds, the speech, the artwork, the gameplay....ahh, the gameplay. It is totally addictive. It was when I used to play it in the arcades and it still is today! One of Steve Ritchie's finest moments!

See the link in my sig for pics.

The sounds work fine on my game, they just done compare to the music and speech on the more modern games.  At least this game has great playabitlity.  And yes the bell is pretty cool!

Oh don't start flip / flopping, it's O.K to hate it. Be firm and don't give into peer pressure!
Damn it, I just can't stand the thought of you suffering a second longer.
Tell you what, how about I swing by and take it off your hands.
After all, I do owe you one right?.
No, no... no need to thank me, it's the least I can do to repay my debt.
