I bought one of these pinball machines for 200 Euro on ebay:

Essentially to build at some point a full size custom pinball from its parts.

What to you think about it?

It's an interesting looking piece.

No glass, but I guess there's not much danger of getting hit in the face by a steel pinball, since the flippers don't seem all that powerful. Looks like you have to be gentle with this, lotta plastic parts that are usually steel on a real table. Can't be beat for 200 euro though.

Let us know what you think after playing with it a bit.

Those mechanical flippers remind me a little bit of my old Happy Days "The Fonz" Pinball I had when I was a kid!

Actual the flippers does not work mechanically although they are not as much powerfull than actual pinball flippers.

Maybe not in this video but normally it comes with glass.

The plastic parts makes it look very cheap. But hey... 200 bucks.

Note: the guy tries Bounce Passes several times (e.g. 2m25s) and... it doesn't work at all. ^^

It plays quite good. The game is much heavier and louder than I thought. Its is almost a real pinball machine and has not much of a toy pinball game. On the other hand it uses only an alphanumeric display and features no game modes like DMD games and so it becomes a bit boring over time.

Thanks for the evaluation. Sounds like it's about what we all expected.
