How did that work in a practical sense? Did they provide a populated playfield (like they did with ghostbusters) or just a blank one (which they seem to do now) that you'll just throw under a bed?

I would guess it will not be possible to repair the H-Stat (red block/resistor assembly). It's cast into resin. How do you know it's damaged?
