Gottlieb Sys1 & Sys80 fans

[backflipper]

Hey pinballers
I know there will be a few of you out there! Are there any dedicated groups in the UK for like minded Gottleib fans?
I have:
- Amazing Spider-man (Missing the back box locking bar)
- Countdown (Major project - Need backglass, playfield lockdown bar, displays)

Cheers

I'm a convert after being whittled down by @MajesticPinball over two years and now have a Black hole (well it's owned by @Lecari really).

Do this club include sys80bs as I believe they're James and John's bread and butter (and what converted me after James loaned us TX sector, arena and Genesis)

Amazing Spider-man (Missing the back box locking bar)

I'd suggest leaving it missing. When they jam, it's almost impossible to get the backglass out...!

There's plenty of Gottlieb fans: https://www.pinballinfo.com/community/threads/gottlieb-appreciation-thread.41462/


I've focussed myself on 80b's mainly but love them all really.

Can't go wrong with some old Gottliebs! Currently have Jet Spin, Spin Out and Lucky Strike EM's plus my recently acquired Pinball Pool Just realised that a quarter of my current collection are Gottliebs what the f*ck happened to me!

Yep, 80A's and B's for me, had loads of the B's and still got TX Sector, Robowar & Excalibur. Alien Star and Super Orbit (although may sell this one soon) on the A's. Never liked much of the later stuff mainly due to their sound, call outs etc.

Despite the bad rap they often get, I find them more reliable than old WIlliams games. Best of Pinball in Germany are great for parts.
