A previous thread brought up this interesting topic: which tables do you think have the best backglasses? Mentioned so far are Paragon, Catacomb, Amazing Spider-Man, and The Empire Strikes Back. What others come to mind?

As a childhood fan of the Twilight Zone show I love integration of different episodes into the pin's backglass.

TZ is definitely one of my favourite '90s backglasses. Very fond of ToM's too.

Haunted House lights up beautifully and I love the ones on early '80s Bally games - Centaur, Medusa, Fathom and Spectrum.

I love those shiny infinity-mirror backboxes: The Empire Strikes Back, Space Invaders, the real-life Black Hole. Probably just because it's a rapidly dated design aesthetic of an era I remember well.

I love backglass art. My house would be full of them if they were cheaper and if my wife didn't think they were stupid. Some of my favorites are; Sorcerer, Catacomb, Fathom, and my all time favorite Haunted House. I'll also add Scared Stiff because I have a thing for Elvira.

VIPER.

Honorable Mentions: Iron Maiden, Mata Hari, Space Invaders, Xenon, Jungle Queen, Out of Sight, The Empire Strikes Back, Banzai Run (not for art, but because a second playfield is even cooler), Jack*Bot, The Machine Bride of Pinbot, Farfalla (Euro Ver.), Robot, Sorcerer, Haunted House.

Prefer to play "modern" tables (1988-Present), but late 70's early 80's had some of the best backglass art. Playfield art too. Cabinet art is better in "modern" tables though.

I love the animated back glass on Black Hole.
Hopefully Farsight will be able to animated it on TPA some day (at least on the console versions).
