If only this was real!!!
« on: March 01, 2014, 09:44:16 PM »
Someone had one hell of an imagination to make this!!!!

WOW!!!

Found this on a website full of some RARE pinball stuff; it was really skewed so I fixed it.  :Excellent:

I HAD to put this up! Who doesn't like a pinball machine that has beer? If only it was for real!

Hey, Dru,

What was the website where you found this?

Do they have a playfield for this table?

- OR -

If this isn't a real table, what table do you think might be re-themed to become the Good Taste Of Beer? (Iike Gottlieb's Canada Dry, which is a re-themed version of El Dorado).

This is a re-theme of Quarterback. (Nice find by the Monk). It was an actual product in real life.

I'm doing it as an EM original. But it needs graphics..... :Whistle:

I'll drink to that!  :Downapint: Beer ... or ale especially, taste best when it's in bottles. Can you imagine Heinekin in a can? Eeeewwwwww!!  :Cry:

So .. for "Good Taste Of Beer" ... is that the BG you want to use? I take it the graphics are to be along that style?

Hmmm ... hard to find too many images like the ones seen in the commercial. I think they called the bottles "little Stubby" or something like that. Must be an 8 oz beer or something ... a shot glass. I can improvise something along the same lines.

Ok, gotta go ... gotta spend a lil' time with TRI-GON!!  :Yahoo:

It can be a collage of images that look like they go with the theme. HAVE to have beer bottle targets though. I liked that backglass so much that I made a table for it.
