That Varkon rocks.

It was Daves when it caught fire!

Fun game to play but a git to nudge!

Varkon sounds crazy - I've never seen anything like it.

 

[Dave2084]

Yes the catching fire incident (in the middle of a league meet) was especially memorable!

Sadly Varkon is not coming to this years Pinball Party as I only have room to bring one game which will be the Defender Pinball.



I'm sure it'll come out of hiding again in the not too distant future!

Aww that Varkon was cool!!

Hopefully Dave you will be able to bring Varkon to the Northern Lights in November. Its the kind of machine that interests both the pinheads and the arcade guys.
