Thanks for the nice and informative Video. One question though: Are you sure that the top hole sequence (1-5) works as a Bonus multiplicator? I never played the machine, but the manual doesn't mention it and AFAIK Williams machines usually used these 'count-up sequences' only to light up playfield features (such as lightning X-ball or Special but NOT to multiply bonus scores (e.g. on LITTLE CHIEF). If this actually WORKS as a multiplicator, it would make this machine very unique for an EM game.
@Souldiver66 You are correct. It does not work as a multiplier. 3X = bonus hold light, and 5X = special light. 3X on your last ball = extra ball + holds bonus.
It's amazing how much pinball changed from the mid to late 70s with the advent of solid state electronics. Still love the old clangs and bells of the classics though.
This game I seen at a tavern back in the early 80s. I always did well at ths game. I also remember one time while the tavern still had this game, I was getting a lot of replays and extra balls. I think the game was malfuntioning, because as I was playing the game the credit window would go up as high as 8 credits.
