congrats on the pin! love that theme and the backglass has that "cool" effect with the lighting. very cool topper too (never seen one before for that game).
 
Nice Pin

OK i have a question I think you would answer. Did the "Aliens" series Stem off this pin? All the artwork seems to be very close to the same design as the aliens creatures.
 
Wow, what a great price, that playfield is awesome. I love playing mine, and I love that it generally fits the vid theme even though it's a pin. That topper is cool, what's it made out of?
 
The aliens thing:

Alien came out first. They made this game, and the guys at Bally ripped off the design of the artwork. The guy that owns the artwork is really, really, REALLY serious about protecting his stuff, so he sued the shit out of Bally and won big time. Something like all the profits, or half the profits, or something. It had nothing to do with Alien, but it ended up paying big bucks to the guy that did the Alien design.

Prob. one of the reasons they don't make any repo stuff for this game, even though every playfield is destroyed. Yours must have full mylar that somebody put on immediately when it was new, or it was ordered from the factory with full mylar.

the topper is made of plastic, must have came with the plastics set on it, i can tell they are repo. Ive seen alot of toppers that come with repo playfield plastics now.. I have original plastics, dont know if i should change them out, or keep the new repos on there?

Definitly factory mylar.. its definitely protected well
 
Really nice! I've never seen one in 1/2 this condition. I love the look of the SI PF's. Reminds me of Iron Maiden album covers.
 
That is awesome!!! I have never seen a PF look that good in original condition. You got a really great deal on it without all the extras.
