One you don’t see up for sale that often - listing my lovely Rush Pro.
I bought this from Nick Clark, and I know it used to be in Level in Preston for a period of its life so this is not a HUO machine. It has just under 11k lifetime plays of which over 600 are mine, but you wouldn’t know. It was also played in an East Anglian league meet so some of you may have already had a go.
I care a lot about how machines play, and I’ve got this one playing really nicely. There is fantastic flow with four different shots feeding the upper flipper, and a good mixture of easy and challenging shots. The code is extremely deep and it has one of the more challenging final wizard modes to reach, for those who are exceptionally good! In terms of the style of the game, it is mode-based with lots of “push your luck” mechanics and strongly rewards strategic planning. There is also a powerful combo system for those who like that! For tournament players, it’s a good machine to know how to play well and it will seriously sharpen your skills and risk-taking chops. It is fantastic and if I wasn’t so constrained by space I wouldn’t be selling it.
The good stuff:
A few cosmetic points, all pictured:
Comes with coin box and manuals but no goody bag, and the coin acceptor has also been removed so that would need to be rectified if you did want to site it.
Located in Bristol BS15, happy for you to play before you collect yourself, or otherwise use Martin or Matt Vince for collection. If you do collect yourself, I am (optionally) happy to take some time to teach you as many or as few of the rules and strategies as you like.
Further photos and/or videos can be provided on request.
Thanks,
Simon

The good stuff:
- This machine has given me zero issues. It has been solid as a rock for me, and I don’t say that lightly! No technician alerts, all bulbs working, not had to undertake anything beyond routine maintenance and the playfield is in very good condition.
- I have fitted an orange 3D printed piece (pictured) to the side loop wall which means that shot now registers 100%. A common and frustrating issue with stock Rush machines is that a clean loop shot can skip over the switch. You can easily remove the piece if you want to (it just pulls off), but I don’t know why you would!
- Just fitted three new flipper coil stops and sleeves, to keep them snappy for a while to come. Also just fitted new Titan sling rubbers as the old ones had got a bit ragged.
- I also fitted a set of Col’s clear sling and guide plastic protectors.
- All plastics and ramps are in excellent condition, none broken, and the scoops have metal protectors.
- Cabinet sides, legs, translite and glass (regular Stern glass) are in great condition.
- Insider Connected is all present and working fine, you can set up home team or log in using the QR scanner.
- New tarty gold-coloured leg bolts and purple nylon washers!
A few cosmetic points, all pictured:
- The textured paint on the lockdown bar has been flattened in one spot beside the action button, looks like some genius rubbed a coin on it. Not an area you touch often so not a big deal, but wanted to highlight it.
- The decals on the sides of the back box have a couple of small nicks and scrapes.
- A small patch of the clear coat has been damaged right beside the drain hole. Can’t be seen unless you lean over and stare down the drain, obviously doesn’t affect gameplay, pictured for your information.
- To rehash the classic Pinball Info meme, the yellow text on the back of the machine has been scuffed a bit. Otherwise the back looks fine!

I used to hate this game but believe me this is a diamond in the rough.
