Just hope someone had the good idea to remove the batteries before being stored.

Having said that the Fish Tales that was reasently opened from being stored from new had no battery leakage.

What a feeling , opening up a brand new Williams game. Can't see to many people having done that, Stern yes but back in the day it was mainly the op's who got to open a brand new Bally/Williams.

I would really like a NIB FT:)
 
Apparently it had batteries in it, however despite being completely dead, there was no leakage. Amazing. Guess batteries were built better back then...
 
Check out the Fish Tale they found, from all the places you would expect to find one this one turned up in Egypt. Stored from new as there was no call for any kind of pinball out there so it sat unloved and unwanted for 18 years. Until it was finally rescued. http://www.hyperballs.com/fishtales.htm

Didn't realise it was Peter who had involment in saving those pins from Egypt. Wish I could have been involved in that one would have been a road trip and a half.
