Dragonette

1954 Gottlieb Dragonette pinball

Description: Dragonette, Gottlieb, 6/54, 950 produced, 5 trap holes, double award, BALL COLLECT TRAY, complete side bumpers 1 to 8 in order to light playfield replays, outstanding Roy Parker backglass and playfield art, woodrail pinball. Dragonette came out first, but was so popular Gottlieb released 4 Belles, which is a copy of Dragonette.

Gottlieb Dragonette has several ways to win a replay (or if game played as Double award, two replays). First is to complete the 1-8 side bumper sequence (in order). If this is done, the red "ding dong" bottom rollovers (A/B lanes next to the flipper) lights for a replay. These two left/right side rollovers alternate with the 10,000 unit. Next is to complete both the A and B rollovers next to the flippers, as this awards a Replay. It also lights the center rollover between the red pop bumpers for a Replay. The next way is to put a ball in each of the four outside trap holes. This also awards a Replay. Putting a ball into the fifth center trap hole gives another replay.

Notes:Same playfield layout as Gottlieb's 1954 '4-Belles'.

'Dragonette' artwork satirized the popular 'Dragnet' television show.
