[The Troll King]

1979 by Gottlieb. This was the first of two licensed Marvel characters that they made. The second machine was Spider-man. If I ever get that one they'll look great next to each other!

[Ze-man]

Very nice, how bout a youtube video of you playing it?

 

I would love to hear it in action, must hear the machine in action.

 

Do you build up gamma points till it tilts or what?

I've seen a youtube video of this machine being played. I don't have any sort of camera I don't think that will film it... I suppose I could use my digital camera. Never uploaded anything to youtube before though.

 

The guy I bought it from happens to collect all the same cr@p I do also. He's got about 6000 comics.

 

I think I'm going to pull the score card out (you can see it at the bottom right next to the plunger) and have Lou Ferrigno sign it at Wizard!

Very Nice. i'm saving up for a Marvel vs. Capcom machine. MY favorite Arcade game.

Either that, or Bust-a-move

Hulk wants one!

[Pitboss]

Excellent find,congrats!! (thumbs u

[shadroch]

How many balls do you get for 25cents? I quit playing when they went to three from five.

1979,eh? Pinball was still king back then. But another year or two and Space Invaders and PacMan would bury it forever.

[Calamerica]

cool!!!

[benz]

[Subliminal]

Very nice.

 

I have a 1954 Gypsy Queen and I have tried hard to resist buying more pinball machines, especially comic character ones, because I can't afford another expensive hobby.

O.K. now everyone around my age or older, let's sing together:

 

"Muh..muh...muh..muh...muh...muh.....my generation! My generation baby!"

 

Litch has the Simpsons pinball machine Alas, he is too young to sing along with us.

[The Troll King]

Thanks for all the kind words everyone! The excitement of something like this definitely doesn't wear off and thankfully I know how to work on them if anything goes wrong with it!

[THE_BEYONDER]

Definately want to pick up a pinball machine one day. Very nice
