ipdb.notes
IPDB Last pinball machine built by this manufacturer. In The Pinball Compendium 1970-1981, David Hankin tells the author that their pinball production stopped due to video game popularity. According to Pinball Memories, this game was first exhibited in November 1980 at the National Amusement Machine Operators Convention held at Surfer's Paradise, Queensland, Australia. The first of the 'Star Wars' themed pinball machines. The upper half of the playfield resembles the layout of Williams' 1980 'Firepower' while the lower half resembles Bally's 1980 'Space Invaders'. used
