- This is a conversion of Gottlieb's 1963 'Gaucho'. Playfield layout is similar to J. Martina's 'Khalifa'.
The manufacturer's advertisement shown here states "R�fection totale tr�s rapide plateaux d'origine et peinture caisses" which translates to "Very fast integral refurbishment of original playfields and cabinet artworks".
We have seen a playfield for this game (not shown here) that has slight differences to the one shown here, as follows:
1) Its slingshot plastics have a "crab claw" art design instead of the nautilus-style artwork.
2) The point values of 300, 30, and 3 that are painted on the playfield below the swinging target, are replaced by white elliptical inserts.
3) The large round white circles (inserts?) above the flippers are each replaced by a small stencil of a swimming fish.
We also have seen variations of the number of posts placed between the flippers: one, two, and three posts. We do not know how many posts the manufacturer placed in this area, if any.
