Looking for a Indiana Jones The Pinball adventure (Williams). To further add some incentive for a potential seller I can offer a trade.

My fully restored Twilight Zone.

You can find a video demonstration of the machine here:

Had a few people ask whats inside the Twilight Zone.

  • Its had an Afterglow fitted to handle smooth transition of the Inserts in the playfield (restoring the fade lost when transitioning from Incandescent to LED.
  • Prismatic Powder known as Twilight Dust along with a High Gloss back for a 2 part powder application.
  • https://www.prismaticpowders.com/shop/powder-coating-colors/PPB-5143/twilight-dust
  • Legs, shooter rod housings, rails speaker grills, legs plates, rail supports all tastefully powder coated.
  • New Mantis Twilight Zone – Slot Machine Scoop
  • Mirco Playfield 3 Magnet 'prototype' design.
  • Mirco Playfield Upper playfield installed with Col's plastic underlay
  • I have new magnet brackets and cores for every magnet placement as well new magnets for the 2 main 'original' design. Game currently has the 9.4H code ready for the third magnet.
  • At the time the kit hadn't arrived when I finished the build but can be negotiated into the deal if desired. Otherwise game plays as a 2 magnet edition at present.
  • Cliffy protectors have been installed over typical ware spots, Launcher area, ball trough, casino scoop to avoid damaging the clear.
  • Comet LED's used through the build, all incandescent's replaced.
  • Xianek Decals used (premium thick cut vinyl) cabinet and backbox corners rebuilt, metal leg protectors fitted. No bubbles or deformation on the edges due to proper install and prep.
  • Original backbox warning text left intact, no re-prep or filling left as is.
  • New backbox latch and catch system
  • Power Driver board re-capped
  • New ribbon cables
  • New IDC connectors replacing burnt or damaged ones identified during the build
  • New Polaris balls installed
  • New 'power ball'
  • New plastics
  • Completely rebuilt pops, slings and Flippers (new coils in some for good measure - see video)
  • New flipper bats
  • New titan white rubbers installed with black rubbers to offset the white bats chosen for the theme
  • My own custom modded period accurate car added to the game and tied into the pop light system
  • Custom Wireform return for the left side (import from Australia)
  • New chrome plated original wireforms for the remaining wireforms
  • New star posts, translucent clear chosen to add in illumination with star post GI mods in the sling area and left side. All tied back and soldered to the GI (no crappy croc clips)
  • Cleaned all wire harnesses in an ultrasonic, transformer de-rusted and cleaned for good measure.
  • New leg plates fitted along with new earth braid and sanded/painted interior
  • Subways flame torch cleaned and new switches installed
  • Full sets of new screws, TNUTS, nylon nuts and washers used throughout the game
  • ColorDMD LCD edition (not a cheap PIn2DMD)
  • Pinsound Plus Pack installed (Speakers, Sub and Board)
  • Currently loaded with a custom sound pack but can easily be put back to original pack if desired
  • Powder coated parts throughout the interior including speaker grills etc
  • Orignal translite and speaker panel in very good condition
  • Completel;y rebuilt Clock with new parts and LED PCB replacing the original incandescent design
  • New sleeves and coil stops
  • All parts were hand polished, tumbled and sonic cleaned.
  • New rear skirt pegs to protect the rear
  • Includes remote battery holder to stop batteries leaking also using Lithium Batteries to avoid leakage in the first place
  • Gumball Mod added to the gumball machine
  • Pedretti TV mod which adds scene animations from the TV show running in a continous loop
  • Re-inforced Target for the casino slot area
  • New targets soldered and mounted into the game
  • Brand new coin door
  • Ant's shooter rods installed

I put a lot of time, money and effort into getting to play and look right.

Thanks Dave, but with all my recent purchases a purchase is out of the Window. It would be a trade only now. That or I sell the TZ separately.
