- ipdb.notes
- IPDB This game is a conversion kit of Gottlieb's 1980 'Panthera'. According to a translation given us for the manufacturer's color flyer, this kit contained: � Playfield with game rules and score sheets. � Specific ball for the captive ball feature. � Game memory exclusive to Le Grand 8. � Grand 8 sound board. � Safety glass backglass respecting the Gottlieb thickness. � Backbox inside panel with bulbs, wiring, score displays and logical cards. � Set of cabinet decorations that fits all 80 models. Some examples of this game had the Gottlieb backbox with the "infinity lighting" while others had a conventional backbox without this lighting. Claude Verpy, a collector in France and a good friend of the manufacturer, passed along this information: Christian Tabart told me that Le Grand 8 was based on Panthera and 100 machines were produced. Christian had the kits made and delivered to his workshops in Montgeron, France. Operators who were interested had to bring him the machine(s) they wanted to be transformed and the job was done by Christian's employees. If someone brought a Mars God of War or Volcano to convert, the backbox was kept as it was with the infinity lights. If it was another model, then there was only the new backglass to put in. The type of backbox depended on the machine that the operator provided. Shown in this listing are two stickers which Tabart affixed to the aprons of the machines he operated in bars to identify himself as the owner and to advertise his company. Agn�s Dusaugey did the artwork for the backglass and playfield. In our Files section is a letter from her describing how she got involved in the making of this game. used
