Definitely one of the best gottlieb pinball games of the early 70’s. I was 13 when this came out. I saw the technician set it up in the entrance to a Cooks department store and was the first one to play it. I was talking to him and he told me to wait a few more minutes to finish the set up. My mom was in the store and she gave me a quarter to get some candy. I decided to wait it out for a game of pinball instead. It was worth it. I played for almost an hour on one quarter. Back in the early 70’s you would get five games for a quarter with five balls per game. I started to figure out the process to get a free game and had won three more games when my mom showed up to exit the store. A little kid about 8 years old was watching me play and I gave him all those free games. He was so excited. It made me feel good to see him happy. Great memories!!

The very first pinball machine I ever played. Back in 1974 when it was brand new. I was 8 years old at the time. Brings back a lot of memories.

Last ball was good to you. Fun game. Thanks for the video Doug! ;-)

I became a true wizard at playing this game. Got the Specials on, more often than not. Used sell my extra games then go to the beach. One of the best games I played. Really a test of skill with the slow flippers to kick the ball where you wanted it to go.

It was great seeing this machine in action again. Thank you ! So glad you got the SPECIAL and racked up some games. You really got that ball cookin' on the last ball. My buddy and I used to play this machine at a 7 Eleven store in Belmont, CA back in 1974. This 7 Eleven was the only place close enough to home in the Mid-Bay Area that had a Magnatron, that I knew of. We were in our early teens and weren't driving yet, so it was nice having a fun pinball machine close to home, other wise we'd have to hitch hike to San Carlos and Redwood City to play, or catch a ride to San Mateo going north on the El Camino to play our other favorite pins. Magnatron got a ton of play at that 7 Eleven, there was usually someone playing it when we'd get there anytime , day or night. A few years later, they replaced it with a Pong machine and then there was no more reason to go to there.

First em I ever bought.

In Puerto Rico is un extint.Y love videos of that Flipper machine.
