1975 BALLY FLICKER FULL SIZE PINBALL COIN OP GAME.
Flicker is an interesting game from Bally. one thing that made it even more interesting, is that this was the first game that was converted from electromechanical to solid state. There's a story about this test SS game floating out there on the interwebs.
A very challenging layout that essentially cuts to play field in half. Similar to many games that we see today like creature from the Black lagoon or the Black Knight sword of rage. if you miss a shot, you're in trouble and those out lanes are very hungry. shooting for the ABCD targets on the sides is a dangerous necessity for big scores on this game. Double bonus is huge, and this reminds me of a number of different designs that show this feature both new and old. Jim Patla is a great designer trained under the watchful eye of Master Zale. The cadence of the bonus count makes me do the happy pinball dance.
Some of the actors featured are Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, WC Fields, Mae West, Humphrey Bogart, Clark Gable, James Cagney, Bela Lagossi, Lon Chaney, Errol Flynn, Edward G. Robinson and many more.
NOTE...
This is an estate sale find sold exactly as pictured as is.
When we purchase this at the estate sale this was working perfectly we took off the legs and carefully took the top scoreboard off the machine wrapped tgem in blankets and hauled it home we reassembled it and when are we reassembled it the machine would not turn on I am unsure why it won't turn on and I do not have the ability to diagnose the problem therefore the item is sold exactly as pictured as is but I'm sure it's not a major problem as I said we played this machine thoroughly when we purchased the machine.
