RaoulJuke Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Being an old skool Star Wars fan, pretty stoked to get this game - ticketed off a childhood bucket list item. Playfield is pretty much perfect with a great mylar job over, maybe 1 post replacement and a couple of rubbers is all thats required. Has the special edition 3d translite as well as the cointaker LED upgrade kit - which is a nice touch. Body is in VG condition and the underside is as neat as you could want. Went to look at it never previously playing it and decided to take the plunge, followed a couple of hours later with a panic attack of "what have i done??". Made the mistake of reading some forums and Pinside reviews and rankings and started to second guess the decision. Having it home for an hour though, totally no regrets - having a ball on it and as a relatively new pinball guy, what might make it less appealing to old hats - is probably what i enjoy the most on it. easy rule set, fast - the CT LED kit makes it a real lightshow which really adds to the whole Star Wars theme. Really impressed at the overall Star Wars feel of it which, at the end of the day, is what you really want when you are interested for a licensed game. I played it for an hour straight and then went upstairs and watched Empire Strikes back - that can only be a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

namastepat Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 I was looking at that myself and the price was not too bad, you've done fine. I've had a case of the panics after most of the machines I have purchased :) Don't read online reviews, there's always someone who hates what you just bought. Just play it and enjoy it.

RaoulJuke Posted November 9, 2017 Author Share Posted November 9, 2017 I Played one the other day at the pinball shed and thought that has to go on my wanted list Nice pickup [emoji106] Cheers Dave, you ever want to play it you know where i am. Im really surprised how much I am enjoying it. The 4 ball multi along with coin-taker LED show is an intense combo & heaps of fun. Only issue I am having is getting the playing slope right - the ball is getting airborne when coming off the Tie Fighter targets. Been fiddling with the legs to try and get it right, but the flooring in that garage is mental - falls front to back at all different rates, and also left to right. Its like trying to set a pinny set right in the Andes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickfigures Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Nice score mate, SW trilogy was the first machine I ever bought. Very fast game and very few of them in NZ. Great looking pin too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poidapoida Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Didn't take long for novelty to wear off the Getaway, that only 2 weeks ago want it. You definitely have you're priorities right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You definitely have you're priorities right I thought 2 weeks was showing great restraint. ITs no reflection on Getaway, love that game - but this is Star Wars! Pew Pew!

markandsophie Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Oh yeah totally if you enjoy it that is the main thing, there so many pins out there that the top 100 list isn't reflective of personal taste. It's more of a numbers game. Each pin appeals to different tastes, that's what is so cool about pinball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
