No idea what does or doesn't work on this, I have zero space at the moment, been stored elsewhere but now something needs to leave! £950 or £1100 with new Pascal Janin mainboard and a pop bumper board

Pascal Janin board and
 
:(

I want. I want it bad. And I want it now.

Only problem is I'm a bit short on funds by around £940.

B*llocks...
 
The Pascal board is power,driver and cpu board all inone,and is the way to go for any sys 80 Gottlieb.
Set up right,like mine,BH plays ace and is an awesome addition to any game.
Would recommend retrofitting the us version aka with speech


LOVE BH
 
Back when i wanted one,when I were a lad:) it took 18 Months to find ANY BH pin

to anyone who gets this,I have a few very helpful pdf's for this game

My motley collection of Bally rejects is not worth much more than two-thirds of the price. Barely half with the Pascal board!

Sorry, in all seriousness and respect to @mufcmufc, have you got any more photos and or information about this? The photos only show the cabinet, but I'm assuming that as you don't state "cabinet only" that there's a backbox and legs, etc.

Also, is this the US or EU version? I'm not a BH aficionado but isn't the US the better version with rotating backglass and speech?

Some of the rubbers in the photo look bright white and new suggesting that this was played with recently? Any idea of history, condition, known faults, etc.?

Oh god... the more I talk about it the more I want it, but it's never going to happen :(

Make it happen dude. Life is too short. :cool:
 
Easier to get forgiveness than permission. Imagine the **** I was in when I spent our new car savings on funhouse :eek:
We're best buds again now though ;)

This is how you buy a Black Hole...

@UKPP last year, first thing Saturday morning...

Me: "Hey Andy, I see you've got a BH for sale."
Legend: "Yeah, it was used on a film set, thus the odd holes and 2nd-handness. 800, it's yours. It all works, plays lovely and it's got a Pascal board in it."
Me: "Hmm, I like BH, just as I like that Lambo Countach poster from years ago. I remember watching Nik play it at The Heighwayman's place in Ireland a few years back, that was cracking. It's a real man's game. Lemme think about it."

By this time my mate's playing it again and again. He remembers it from when we were kids, it's his favourite game ever. 2 or 3 minutes pass...

Me, thinking: "Hmm, don't get many BH's come up and it's got proper chunky flippers like they don't make anymore. I want it and someone else might buy it. Now, I've got a flight home to Zürich on Sunday night and a tiny hire car."

Me: "Andy, I'll take it."

Sometime later..."Jesus, this thing's heavy! Yup, in with the Paragon..."

Note: Andy might not have said these things, it was a year ago, I struggle these days to remember details from 5 minutes ago. But it was along those lines...
 
Had chance to do some pics today after gaining space WOOOOOO :D. Boards look good, back glass looks great (one mark all in the black)

Thank you every one for all the continuous pestering me to buy this ;) but I've decided that if, no when, I get my grail pin it has to be just right. For BLACK HOLE, this means that it'll have to be an imported US original with the rotating backglass, and not the export version with the static backglass. I realise this one could be supplied with a Janin board but I've played a Janin-powered BH and there were some issues with the bonus scoring. I'd prefer an original US boardset because I'm a bit of a purist.
