We will be putting this game up on eBay in a few days, unless we receive an
acceptable offer beforehand. We haven't established an exact price as of
yet, but belive it to be worth somewhere between 7-11K, remembering that
our TAFG #4 went for 12.5K just a few months back.
History of the game:
Guaranteed Home Use Only! We purchased this game from Cleveland Coin in
Indianapolis in Nov of 1992. My brother was collecting anything SciFi at the
time so when he heard that the CFTBL was coming, he was one of the first
people to purchase. It stayed at home until 1995 when it was sold to a local
collector, where it has remained in his basement arcade ever since.
Condition of game:
The game is Serial #2 (20018 110002), Mfg. Date Aug 7, 1992, ... with red
circuit boards under the playfield, red kiss inserts, yellow flipper bats,
and a unique chase ramp that has the chase lights exposed up thru the
plastic so that they can be changed easily. The pop bumpers are not lit, the
game has a standard pink DP playfield. The game is all original, all boards
are untouched and original, never removed, Rom version L-4, legs are
original pewter grey. Very Green Hologram. The cabinet and backbox are about
as Mint as we've ever seen. no fading whatsoever, with just a few light
marks. The game is not dirty at all, and the ball marks in the ramps and
troughs are very light. The playfield is nice and bright but does have some
paint loss around the Search, Mega Menu, Move your Car, and Double Feature
inserts. There is some paint loss around the snack bar hole, but the hole
itself is just starting to show some wear. The game works perfectly with the
customer changing out a few bulbs and rubbers over the years. We haven't
done anything to this game thinking that the new owner may want to take care
of any repairs himself, and maybe even have the playfield clearcoated.
If you have any interest in purchasing this unique game, please email us.
Photos will up on our website soon.
Thank You
