This is awesome. Now the phrase "Game over man, game over!" can finally be put into proper context!

BTW - This cab is done by the great Ben Heckendorn aka Ben Heck.  This guy does some amazing things and watching vids of this pinball in action is nothing short of awesome.

I will get a chance to see/maybe play this machine this weekend down at midwest gaming classic in Milwaukee.  I am more an arcade than pin guy, but love a good game no matter what.

It wasn't on when I got there.  :badmood:  But the MWGC was awesome, and I picked up a Smash TV that I plan on restoring as much as I can since it isn't in the original cab as far as I know.
