Very nice! Hoping for my gaming auctions to finish in time as this would be a nice addition :P

You forgot to mention the head isn't working. No wonder you get banned from forums....
 
I have had five of these although the others were £200 specials back in the 90s and have never seen the head do anything but there you go . all the motor and board are there so we will take a look at the weekend. quite tidy underneath and in the back

would be daft to take and upload a video if trying to hide anything

also machine is available to view and play at a public venue

at moment we are using an option that allows for the kickback coil to be out of action which launches a ball from the plunger when kickback lit. As used on many Sterns.

To be fair, the inside of cabinet and backbox and underside of playfield look in exceptionally good condition and very clean.

Boards look good apart from one or two of those large resistors.

Even has the original card over the flipper board.

Looks like a nice simple project.

Frankies head should turn left and right. I think he is supposed to follow the ball on the playfield.

When I had one it didn't move when I got it. I remember something vaguely about swapping wires on the motor board and that sorted it. Was a while ago.

There is a wiring diagram on one of my posts somewhere. What happened to the back right ramp the flasher has fell through?
 
I had a go on this last night, isn't the game that I wanted, but is in as described condition, interestingly - that GENEVA callout is growing on me.

Also arnt the arms ment to move and do somthing with the ball ?
 
I saw the movie over Christmas, so many call outs from the movie.

‘Don’t worry sir, I’ve got you covered’

Great game, my head doesn’t move either, I thought I read somewhere it was a wiring problem from the factory or something
 
Sega and Frankenstein not my thing but looks a great machine for a nice price and from an honest seller good luck with the sale Steve.

Head is a real easy fix, it uses a remote control aircraft servo motor, doesn't need to be the original type as long as it's classed as a 'hard wearing' motor like the ones that control the wing flaps, they're cheap, circa £10 would get you a good one with brass gears.
 
just my 10p worth on the servo -motion board ,moving head jobby! in a nutshell its a micro chip on the board that has failed-they were remade but all corrupt so unless an original can be found his head aint going to turn -ever! unless someone can write the programme
 
It's the servo that's probably failed, I fixed mine a year or two ago.
