Fully working Gottlieb Waterworld.
£1500
Bought as a non-working project on here last year.
It plays really well but it is best described as a players condition machine. As can be seen in the pictures the playfield isn’t the greatest and the cabinet has seen better days and that is reflected in the price.
A playfield decal has been installed to cover the playfield wear around the flippers. Mylar has been used to cover the worst bits of playfield damage. There’s currently a good condition used playfield on eBay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/114738340251 if someone wanted to do a full restore of this machine.
There are a number of broken plastics which had been previously glued or taped. There’s also a couple of missing plastics where the ship meets the wireform, one of which should cover the opto and wires. Some playfield decals are worn and need replacing, especially down the right ramp.
The legs are from a Bally/Williams machine.
As well as having been recently stripped and cleaned, it has had the following installed:
- new flipper coils
- new flipper EOS switches
- flipper rebuild kit
- new rubbers
- new pinballs
- new target smart switch
- new rottendog driver board
- replacement battery & holder on the cpu board
- playfield decal around the flippers to cover wear
- sink hole cliffy installed
A repro manual is included.
