Description
The Machine The Bride Of Pinbot pinball, produced by Williams in 1991
In my opinion the best machine produced by Python Anghelo, who was my favorite designer / artist.
To this day, this is still my all time top playing pinball….No player forgiveness here.
The asking price is based on the pin being refurbished to “Collectors Quality” condition.
The photos in the gallery at present, show the pin in it’s current condition.
Major work that will be done on this unit as follows:
Cabinet will be stripped, and sanded down to wood. All body repairs will be completed, then unit will be primed, then block sanded with 1000 grit.
The base coat will then be applied. Once dry, a new set of top quality decals will be laid down, with cut-outs around the legs, and edges, which will prevent future decal rippling.
All the metal will be sandblasted, and powder coated; including playfield ramps and guides. I’m thinking micro metallic candy grey, but if your ordering the pin, choose your own color.
The playfield will be stripped bare, topside and underside. The old faded, and scratched Mylar coating will be removed, at which point there are a few small paint touch ups to do. Once completed, it will receive four coats of 2-part automotive clear.
All the electronics will be updated, and many old connectors, and capacitors changed, so the unit is reliable.
All playfield metal parts, such as posts, will be polished in a tumbler with a special medium, for over 1 week; end result, they will look new.
All mechanical components will be disassembled, cleaned, and rebuilt to original specifications.
The existing backglass is a translite, this will be changed to a real mirrored, silkscreened tempered glass backglass.
A new playfield plastic set will be installed, as well as 4 new face cube plastics.
A new mini playfield, and bride helmet too.
The machine will also receive new LED alphanumeric player score displays, making the high voltage generation section obsolete, greatly improving reliability.
All #47 & #555 bulbs will be changed to color matching 2-SMD frosted, high intensity “Absolute” brand. All back box bulbs will usually be cool AKA natural white. Likewise, most all playfield General Illumination (GI) will also be Cool White. Unlike Warm White, which has a red hue, cool white is pure white, and will illuminate the playfield much better.
A new sheet of tempered playfield glass will be installed.
Basically, everything you read about under “The Restoration Process”, which is broken into 3 parts (Board Sets-Playfield-Cabinet) will be done to this pin.
Notable Features: Flippers (2), Pop bumpers (3), Slingshot in the pop bumper area, Ramps (2), Spinning target (1), 2-ball Multiball. Upper level bagatelle mini-playfield. Two elevated chicane lanes on the right side have interwoven paths. Plunger lane has elevated skill shot to drop ball to a kicker which kicks the ball into the pop bumper area. The woman’s head in the upper playfield rotates to show different faces, so amazing!
Heartbeat Ramp (the center ramp) is a dual-path ramp which diverts the ball either to the right inlane or to the plunger lane, depending on the ball’s path in the mini-playfield.
Production: 8,100 units
