Stern did it in 2011.
A mother****ing one !

They should have incorporated that into the actual gameplay. Have the ball roll out of it, or something.

 

[kinggo]

I agree.
Maybe a little preference for the Stern.

uh....... I've seen the Stern one a few days ago and it looks so cheap that I didn't even want to try it. Glossy plastics and lousy photoshop.

 

[Dedpop]

I think they're both stinkers.
Music sounds better in the Stern one though.

That looks all sorts of awesome.

Oh, so that's where the idea for that lower playfield from the Congo table came from.

 

[Extork]

That's where they got the idea for awesome!

Awesome.

Awesome.

[Kaibun]

I couldn't agree more. This table is the definition of awesome.

^ I played that one at a con. It struck me as pretty dull. Though the art is unusual for a machine of that era.
