    ipdb.notes
    The inclusion of Da Vinci's Vitruvian Man on the backglass may be the only depiction of male nudity from a pinball machine manufacturer. The manufacturer's flyer shows that the slingshots next to the flippers each use three posts while the manual's playfield diagram shows four posts each. Presumably all production games used three posts each. We found this comment by Jim Tolbert in his Service Center column in the Jan/Feb 1980 issue of Amusement Review: If you have a Time Warp and are experiencing a problem with the ball hanging up between the wire of the bottom left inside rollover and the rubber of the left kicker, it's because the post designed to go there was left out in production. If you look at the playfield diagram for this game, you'll see that it calls for four posts. You can remedy this omission by putting in a post or more simply, by using a finishing nail to pull the rubber out just a bit. There is no problem with the right side rollover since the angle is different.
