If you had some sys80 transformers to throw in, I'd be all over it.

Oh come on; that thing is nowhere near the CRIME AGAINST THE BRAIN that is
Seizure Eyes. (Spanglish Eyes) Only game whose art is SO BAD that you
can _increase_ the value by smashing the backglass and instead inserting a
blown up picture of Oprah Winfrey!

((shudder), large oprah!)

The playfield is about as bad an abortion as the backglass. Rarely
does such completely egregious art populate both the backglass AND the
playfield, but in the case of Seizure Eyes, plate glass and a belt
sander is the only way to even _begin_ to play the game.

(Well, I guess you could gouge your eyes out, but then that will
negatively affect your play. )

Could be, but I've never been able to look at it more than ten seconds
without feeling physically nautious from the horrendous art!

The pop bumper beween the flips, and
the ability to lose the ball behind the flippers.

Sometimes you think you've lost the ball and
you don't. Other times you think you have it,
and it's gone!

Not really fast, just deceiving!

If shipping wasn't involved for me, I'd take the game in a second. I
love the artwork on this game.
