I went over to HMV in M'bro to see if i could fix up Eric Ridleys Austin Powers that had become faulty:
The staff mentioned a few issues with it not kicking out balls and reporting a few errors, but it turned out to be a simple posi screw had worked loose on the 'laser beam' cannon assembly. Here it is fixed back in place:
The balls were also hanging in the trough. It is diveted, and i suspect the balls have become magnetised too, but all it took to start a game was a simple shove to get the balls moving. I let the staff know the dance, and put it back together to play it for a while to see if all was ok.
All ended up fine but i didnt take anymore pics unfortunately. I know someone that looks/acts like AP so i could never own one, but its not as bad as many make out. It certainly made me laugh out loud a few times. Oh Beeehave!!!
