On the way to my familys' annual Christmas Eve gathering in Fort Worth a few ads popped up on Craigslist, one for a vintage "roulette pachinko machine", an Indiana Jones(including a raw cabinet NIB from Slot Pachinko),and an original Star Wars in an amazing custom cabinet! All from the same seller and all of them well under retail price
I looked at the "roulette" one closer and realized its was a power roulette!

Having already obtained a Star Wars,I wasn't as interested in it, but the Indy was always on the normal"list" and The roulette was on my "Grail List"
so of course I had to call the seller immediately to set up a meeting (which turned out to be this morning)
these were the result :

On the roulette, the seller made the custom cabinet,cleaned it thoroughly and replaced any non working bulbs,
so, other than some water stains and a brittle label (the reference chart on the left of the face)it works wonderfully!

and the Indy needed a couple of lumina frame bulbs replaced which I just happen to have, and is now complete
between our super rare white christmas here in Dallas, and stumbling across these machines,I almost believe in Santa again!

Woo Hoo!

PS: the Stars Wars is currently still available here,although its too bulky to ship

Nice Find.. the only thing that makes that Power Roulette better is the flipper style of shooter..

Ohhhh nice one mate!!!

I would have picked up that Star Wars, but the accessories are a little 'naff' for my liking. (personal taste)

Great finds!!!
