Beautiful

And yet another beautiful game ! When you showed the pictures of how you used to restore before they made reproduction decals , gave me a new appreciation for how good we have it these days ! Nice job man !

[@highendpins]

No doubt. Those were the darkest days of pinball restorations. Williams had only recently shut down,no one had the rights and we were on our own when it came to cosmetics in particular.

Your work is absolutely amazing, it's art! Creature is one of my dream pins to own. Thanks for the awesome content!

[@highendpins]

Thank you. It’s just I me working but I am glad it’s enjoyable.

What a gorgeous machine! Amazing work on this. I’ve always loved the theme of this game and the colors just pop on this. 👍

Beautiful job! Which hologram mod is that? It looks great!

[@highendpins]

I wish I could tell you but it came in with the game so I don’t truly know.

Hi, Chris! It looks like the switches at both ramp openings/entrances aren’t registering. Otherwise, everything looks to be playing perfectly! Great job on this restoration as per usual!

[@highendpins]

Thank you! Yes just the one on the right it’s noted in the video they are initial gameplay videos.I like to do those instead of dialed in gameplay videos because while not always perfect right out of assembly it shows how close they can be. You really have to play one of these games several times to even observe everything and make adjustments.

@@highendpins, yes, you noted in the video that the right ramp entrance switch wasn’t registering. I owned a CFTBL for a number of years in the early 2000’s, so it’s been a while, but I could swear that the left ramp entrance switch wasn’t registering either. I think it makes a revving engine sound when triggered. I could be wrong and you are the expert, so I know you’ll address it if necessary. Again, wonderful job! I *LOVE* your videos!!!

[@highendpins]

@@abc12346038 Thanks I could definitely miss something just like anyone else it does happen 😮

Wonderful game! I wish space wasn't always the final determining factor. I couldn't keep mine after some years because it is a very rinse, repeat codeset.

Thanks Pinfarmer. You are on the Christmas list 😀
