Just scooped up a pinbot last month myself. What a game. Love it. Stone cold classic 80’s pinball.

 

[Steve64]

Have you sold it yet?

 

[philpalmer]

No it’s still here.

If its easier to collect from Brum I can grab it next time I am up there.

 

[Epotech]

It’s just the display, nothing to worry about. Just replace or don’t worry, can’t remember the last time we played 4 player here.

I'm all new to the pinball scene and I don't know what I'm looking at so I was just worried it maybe the start of other things to fail

Nothing to worry about, these displays don’t last forever like most things. Very easy to put a new or used one in. People on here will always help you out

@Steve64 - if things failing in the future bother you. Do not buy a pinball..... or a car...... or a central heating boiler.... or a tv.....

I know all about them and how to fix them but I'm new to pinball and was only asking for some advice
But thanks for your feedback

86-89 I worked in central Leicester and used to visit the arcade at lunch, they had games like Fathom and EBD. I got made redundant and started a new job. Didn't visit an arcade again till probably 1990 and they had Pin-Bot. I remember putting my 50p in and being truly astonished by the music, flashers and ramps. I couldn't believe how far things had progressed.
I've wanted a Pin-Bot ever since. Needless to say, this is sold to me and I'll make it my winter project.

Great buy @Sven Normansson

It’s fast becoming one of my most favourite games. Love it.

It plays real nice - had a few games on it over a couple of visits to PH.
