Dragon

August 17, 2007

Dragon Slayers! Even the Vid-Niks will play this one! And it’s the only pin I’ve seen with full on T & A right on the side of the cabinet! She’s a butterface but who cares/? This is another pin from Don Arnold and I can’t say enough nice things about him. He gave me a deal on this and 2 other pins at the CA Extreme this year which, by the way was a screaming show. Ken Cheney and the crew really do an incredible job of putting it all together; I have a lot of respect for them! Kudos from the Ju Ju!
So Don and James Edes and Dale come down from Seattle/ Vancouver and haul a trailer full of pins and a few vids. James brought a really cool Stern Catacomb which although he explained its complicated strategy well, I just didn’t have time to master. What a great bunch of guys! Hope to see them all at the Pacific Pin Expo.
Now about Dragon…this machine was found new in the box from the warehouse in Vancouver where it had sat, unopened for more 30 years! Right now, it has 347 plays on the meter. It is essentially brand new and looks and plays beautifully! It is in the SS rooms because even though it is an Electromechanical, it has Analog Electronic sounds including a death groan from each Dragon target when you knock them down. This pin is very fast and furious! And the artwork is outrageous, still super nice thanks in part to the back-printed ¼” plexi/wood playfield. It has no inserts! An amazing pin, see the flyer for playing details.
