I picked this up in Modesto from a nice family; I think this was the Grandfather’s machine. It is a nice Recel made in Madrid with lots of Gottlieb parts. These machines are the Lincoln Continentals of pinball. Heavy, heavy duty and smooth! It’s like playing pinball with air shocks. This machine however is not only smooth, but fast. With the center captive ball, and the sheer velocity of the play, this thing screams. When you hit the captive ball it will bounce around in the corral advancing the bonus and making good points. There are two more captive ball/eject holes on either side which is a little redundant. As you rack up more bonus you earn an extra ball and double bonus. A fast, fun game.

Produced by Recel, 1975. 4 players. 8.7 out of 10 on the Play-O-Meter
