Love for gottlieb wedge heads?

[myPinballs]

i just joined this club today. My first gottlieb wedge head purchased, ready for a restoration 2018. Looking forward to diving into this one!

Gottlieb King Pin. 1973

Serial number 7855

Some of the 70's drop target Gottlieb games are great.

Once they are tuned and playing fast they are pretty addictive.

King Pin is a nice pick up - very satisfying each time you take out the drop targets.

I used to have a Pin Up - the AAB version.

Enjoy

I've only played Pin Up but the artwork look pretty much exactly the same and it's a great game. That one you picked up looks like it has a great playfield. Have fun with it...

Good to see more EM's on here. Here's a couple of mine.

Buckaroo / cowpoke must be most common in UK. My only game older than myself

Nice score mate, can't go wrong with some EM goodness I still really want a Gottlieb Atlantis at some point as well as a Williams Grand Prix

GTB Atlantis is one of THE best 70's games

Are there any in the UK though? I'd guess that Mr Dutton has probably got one but I've never seen one for real.

Seen a few for sale in the last few years - one in London that was fantastic and a few beaters on ebay. I would have expected more but I guess by 1975 op's were buying less and less.

Nice choice Jim, Kingpin is a classic. Looks like it's in great condition as well. Result.
