Content Provider ARMYAVIATION Posted June 9, 2021 Content Provider Posted June 9, 2021 This has by far been my favorite restored on an EM and top 3 with all pinballs. I absolutely love the 60s era pinball games. This game was in pretty good shape when I picked it up but with help from @RONR11, we got it running like it was back in the 60s. The playfield is in excellent shape. It had 1 small mark where the left flipper has hit the table at one time but it was all green and touch up is very hard to see. The cabinet artwork i hand touched up and going to put a coat of poly on the cab to seal it but the colors turned out amazing. The game is so fun to play, I could sit there for an hour and curse out how hard it is to get all the targets hit to spell MAGIC * CITY. @loserman76did a great job building this and the add a ball version. @mlager8jumped at the chance to do a BORDesque type full render so we took the playfield image and measured all posts, openings, everything down to I think the 64th of an inch. He completely redid the image to add even the finest of details. I am putting it back together now with the correct table dimensions and the new pf image. Hopefully when we get done it will get the seal of approval from @bordbecause I know he loves these games and I think it will be one of his favorites.
JFR1 Posted June 9, 2021 Posted June 9, 2021 Nice! Very cool project Tom. And - Good to hear that Matt is tackling things again!
mlager8 Posted June 9, 2021 Posted June 9, 2021 @JFR1 I'm trying buddy! We're getting there... slowly.... but getting there
Content Provider Wylte Posted June 9, 2021 Content Provider Posted June 9, 2021 You put the before shot last, so for a second my brain went "Oh no, what happened!?" 🤣 Great job, it looks really good! Excited to see more fully rendered tables, I think bord has got me hooked.
bord Posted June 9, 2021 Posted June 9, 2021 Looks incredible. Truly a gorgeous piece of pop art. With you, Matt, and Jeff on the project I'm sure the VPX version will be stellar.
Content Provider ARMYAVIATION Posted June 9, 2021 Author Content Provider Posted June 9, 2021 The paint wasn’t that bad on the cab but it did have some flaking and the front was by far the worst. I wanted to get to a clean solid slate and get a solid paint job on it
