very cool - nice mini collection

finally ordered one of these this morning, can't wait to play BZ II

yes, rotate your display screen by twisting/turning/moving the yoke so loosen up that screw and go at it, adjust diagonal lines to just touch the outer rectangle lines but not exceed them, make screen fill the visible portion of crt with cardboard bezel installed - otherwise shit be off screen...

it really looks like a kids game, which is not surprising coming from JJP, am not a fan of their machines quite ironic that a traditional pinball machine has a video mode consisting of playing virtual pinball - this is insane (and stupid)

crudely simple & clever, not true head to head like indy 800 but still would be fun at least to watch others compete, not sure how the competitors could race and at same time watch the display above the machine to see their progress but maybe ...

shipping machines by PODS seemed ok at first glance, we recently moved from Georgia to Idaho and used an independent mover for about 1/2 of our stuff and two PODS for the rest of our junk - decided not to put any working machines in the hands of PODS and this turned out to be a good decision...

you need to verify that you have the 18v on both the power pcb & the daughter card / game pcb this will help, they are easy to repair - caps are usually good, the regulators do fail http://www.elektronforge.com/TestMdwPS.htm

thats a pretty solid WTF - how did it arrive here? cool looking oddball for sure

check the part numbers to make sure they match - on mine they did, had both a 19" and a 23" motorola chassis and checking the manuals both use same part, then looking at the flyback both had same part numbers printed on then so i swapped them and worked perfectly

i did not, flyback was bad, burnt many parts in process - i found another chassis from a 19" space invaders - which uses same flyback and replaced it, the resistors on the pcb control power going to flyback so the 19" and 23" share same part seems stranger than truth but it is true, anyone...

typically, the burn is not a problem on these, there is a green/red gel over the screen plus a bronze tint plexi - when contrast/brightness is adjusted correctly the picture is just wonderful regardless of burn on the crt even when bits of phosphor fall off the negatives are usually not...

come on! bring it on! lets git it on! they are still for sale !

try this ... https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/the-1976-exidy-death-race-project-is-completed#post-6914641

the description was a dizzying read, not sure why the new cabinets were made from particle board and then painted, pretty sure the orginals were made from some sort of melamine and not painted - at least mine was, only mention this since such care to detail seemed to be made yet this bit was...

jesus Odin, buy them and sell someone else the BZ come on man!

thats some crazy shit, wtf! must have cost a fortune in time and money, boggles the mind how many hours must have gone into that project

and a few more BZ photos aka vector goodness

couple more photos of the battlezone lower right corner chip archer overlay interior shots backdoor is original but missing the door sheet, coin box is present too

price drop bump

have seen them installed from front on many machines using threaded bolt with nut on the back - the rectangular hole is large enough to mount the switch either way on later production panels, earlier panels i have seen used the smaller cutout where the switch can only be mounted one way i think ...
