Bally Six Million Dollar Man Plays like NEW! (Dr. Dave's Pinball Restorations)

[@Richard-ZA01]

My most favorite pinball game ! I played this after high school.

Looks phenomenal. Great job again

[@pinballdoctor]

Thankyou! This was a customer's game we restored. I liked playtesting it so much that it brought back memories of playing this title in a Ice cream shop back in the late 70's my friend Paul and I would hang out at. Excellent Ice Cream and 70's pins like Evel Kneivel and 6 Million Man. I found one for myself, actually ...it found me. A cutsomer called me and said he had one he wanted to sell. Nice shape but not working but I can take care of that. =) Picked up a new playfield for it too! Once I get caught up with customer restorations, I'll be doing one of these for me. It will be over the top like the Centaur I just restored. www.pinballdoctor.com

That’s awesome. Can’t wait to see the progress.

My favorite pin ball machine of all time. I collected many road side coke bottles to turn into quarters for this machine back in the day. Would love to have one.

[@pinballdoctor]

I hear you! I liked this game back in the day when it first came out and then now after I restored this one, I fell in love with the hard to master game play of it so found one locally. Actually one found me via a customer phone call asking if I wanted his. =)

@@pinballdoctor, please let me know if you’re interested in selling the SMDM you recently acquired. Thx!

[@pinballdoctor]

@@abc12346038 , Thankyou for the offer but I am going to restore this one for myself . Going to make a real sweet copy with a new playfield swap and all the trimmings. Will post it on my channel once complete.

@@pinballdoctor I’m sure it’ll be one really sweet game when you’re done with it!

This was the machine at my college when I started in 1984...absolutely loved that machine. Go Berry College Vikings!

[@ScottParisi]

Really nice machine and work by your team. Been looking at a $6MM Man but think the playfield is too far gone and replacements don't seem to be overly available

[@pinballdoctor]

Thankyou Scott! This and the Rolling Stones we did were so rewarding to bring back to play like new condition. =) I scored a new playfield for my 6 Million Man I will be restoring for myself down the road. So I can most likely source another for your 6 Million Man as well. =)

CPR do a replacement playfield . Also you can get a hardtop which simply goes over existing playfield . I own a SMDM ..

[@pinballdoctor]

Yes. I own a CPR playfield that will be going into the next one I do. @@MrMotorNerd

They did not use the "bionic sound" on this game, interesting...

[@pinballdoctor]

Hmmm. Interesting to hear what your trick was to rack up those 10 credits?

[@bluestripetiger]

The idea of this game was good but it's not executed in a way that's great, although maybe for that era it was? I would love to see a remake done in the contemporary style of the 6 million dollar man pinball. There's so much that could be done and so many moments from the classic series that could be relived as goals to achieve during the game, great sound with modern speakers plus the game could involve a video screen like so many pinballs have today.

I'm a purist and like the charm of the action and sounds of these older games just the way they are. It's a case of we could over we should.
