1971
Gottlieb's Astro very
rare pinball machine with a production run of 500 machines 46
long years ago. Vintage pinball is becoming super popular and
Pinrescue is struggling to keep up with demand. We sell out
every Christmas and nearly sold out just last month Oct. 2016
last year we didn’t make BlackFriday!
This is only the 3rd Astro Pinrescue has had the pleasure of
restoring (completed November 2016) in the 15+ years we have
been in business doing only pre 1977 vintage pinball full time.
Wonderful game play Astro is an add a ball machine made for
Wisconsin and New York states that banned replay pinball for
some stupid reason. Pinball collectors covet add a ball machines
for their rarity and the long playing games as you can win many
WOW's (extra balls) and each game can last a long time if you
are good. Object of the game is to spell STAR TREK I'm not sure
if Gottlieb paid any rights to use that name on the machine but
there it is.
Excellent all round condition beautiful original art glass,
playfield and cabinet with some light professional touch ups
nicely done and brand new chrome legs installed. Pinrescue
installed many new parts on Astro and it plays like 1971 all
over again. What songs might have you been playing on your 8
track in 1971 when this like new Astro was really new? Carol
King plays her first concert in Carnegie Hall, the late Davy
Jones leaves the Monkees and Jim Morrison is found dead in Paris
at age 27. Don't wait another decade to get that classic pinball
machine you have always wanted they all may be gone.
