Oh my goodness.


That thing is a thing of beauty. Are you going to post any building-in-progres

Wow, nice work man. I'd love to see video of it being played.

What boardset are you using?

That is an incredibly impressive machine you've built. How long did
that take? Did you program the rules, and if so, what boardset,
controller did you use?

Fantastic!

Now theres something the bodys downunder could learn from. Smart
looking design. Is the ball used to press the buttons on the LCD?
Ace!

Do let us all know if you ever build the machine, either way the
computer renderings are great...

Very cool Are you controlling it through a PC? If so , how are you
running the solenoids?

Unreal! What a great looking machine! Ditto what Mario said. You
need to document the making of this.

held on with blue flipper rubber Sweet!

Thanks for the extra information and the video!! You were very clever
in your adaption of the Superman title and hardware. When I was
imagining how you might have done this the other day; I came up with
methods that were much more complex. I figured you designed the game
in pinmame/visual pinball and adapted a PC motherboard to the existing
driver boards somehow. Keep it simple! You really got me thinking
now. Maybe I can have a Three Stooges pin some day.

You should be dis-locating your arm patting yourself on the back over
this. Great job.
