And I think I did pretty good, all things considered.

I traded the guy one of my pins for it.

The Robocop is missing it's backglass, 3 plastics(replaced with plain black plastic) and needs new flipper bats, a flipper coil and OMG it's dirty...strip down and clean, and new rubbers would do this pin alot of good.
But, the playfield doesn't have a scratch on it, none of the ramps are cracked, and on the electronics end of things it works PERFECT.

I know, pics or it didn't happen, but no can do tonight.

I've had a couple people ask for before and after pics and video. For sure! This thing is dirtier than a $5 hooker, missing a few plastics and the backglass, and the flippers are busted(left one needs a new coil).
I think it will clean up nice, outside of being VERY VERY dirty, the playfield doesn't seem to have a scratch on it. Alot of mylar, but even in the outlanes where there is none it looks great.

Missing backglass (Any idea what size the flasher bulbs are? I can't read numbers)


Really dirty but surprisingly unscratched(at least no big ones) glass.


Brutalized lockdown bar, and some damage to cab at corner of it, someone wanted at those quarters REAL bad. Other side is the same.


Upper PF - Spinner target is off the post(Just noticed that), arrow decal faded good, but ramps are uncracked.


Lower PF - Left flipper is a WMS flipper, busted good and coil toast. Right is a DE, works but there's a sling rubber on it! Sling plastics are makeshift plain black plastic, as is middle PF plastic.


Before Video


Pretty hard playing with one hand while looking through the camera.
I didn't want to run it again while it is so dirty, and with those borked flippers, but it should be nice to see the difference when I get it cleaned up and those flippers replaced.
 
MMMMMMMM! NOS ROBOCOP GOODNESS!

NOS backglass, only 1 little scratch in the blue background area.


NOS plastics! They still have their plastic film on them!

 
Kind of a quirky game but I like it. I love the "groove music" when you shoot the right saucer (ED209?). do-d-do-do-do-do "I'll buy that for a dollar!"
 
This Pin gets no Love from hardly anyone. I've had mine for about 10 years .. Finding parts for it is really hard if you need them.

Finding the plastics and the backglass are the hard part, everything else I need is readily available.

I've already scanned the plastics, they're being cleaned up/vectored and sent to CPR. I'm going to scan the backglass too, but that has to wait until I head back down to another members place who has a floating scanner.

And there's no way I would bid on that backglass, I already spent enough on the one I have and the plastics.
