I am truly amazed with how many people are still passionate about pinball! All the arcades in my area shut down in the mid 2000's and the few places that had pinball machines weren't that great. But here we are 10 years later and I'm watching pinball expo videos, pinball arcade videos, competitive tournaments like PAPA are still going, and now *this* channel where you have these guys working on multiple pins at the same time! So glad :)
Great vid on a great classic game. Elektra rocks! I have one myself. One comment tho, the bright LEDS in the backglass look a little too bright. My game has mostly incandescent bulbs in the back, giving it a 'softer' look.
Wow! Great Job! Love your Videos. I’m restoring an Elektra Pin now for my personal collection. I was wondering what could I use to clean up the Lexan on the play field to see the bottom playfield better? Didn’t know if you use a special cleaner or something?
That machine looks beautiful, Todd! I have a soft spot for these early 80s machines.... Say, do you (or anybody here, really) know who did the voices for the Bally machines, like this one, Centaur and Medusa? It sounds so cool!
I understand on some cell phones, you may have to turn on the "notes" on your RUclips account to see them...its a RUclips hyperlink that direct connects you> Watch from a home computer to see it or see if you can change your settings! I am going to add a link in the description above to this too!
that voice sounds like the voice on the hard to find Centaur, same maker Bally loved the game when I played it once have grown to love it on the app. cause he's goofy

Godfist314 Yes...it does seem like the hobby is growing!
+Godfist314 If you're going to be in the South Florida area in February (19-21) stop by the South Florida Arcade & Pinball Expo.: www.floridaape.org/
WOW TODD! The sound on this game is one of my favorites. Love to get this pin!
Thanks Dick!

Joystick Evolution 1 Thanks!

Beautiful this pinball, I did not know him, this would also work in bowling in 2020!
1999 is only "15 years ago", if today is 2014. ;-) Elektra rocks!
I love LEDs but I agree with Darryl that they do look a bit too bright in the backglass. I'm now off to watch the tutorial!
I used to clock this out and get the max 15 credits every time-you can get a credit if you block the ball on the upper right hand flipper lock

Yes, but on Haunted House you can access all three levels with the same ball without having any captive ball stuff??
that's right! Just one ball at a time!
It looks better than Haunted House though. HH suffered terribly from there not being much to shoot at.

I feel like Embryon has the same problem
looks great guys
+michael whitley Thanks!
Your welcome
That machine looks beautiful, Todd!

Thank you! i am not sure who did the voice though. Check on pinside.com
as they may know!

Another beautiful job by TNT! Since It has the extra thick plexiglass, is it much heavier than most pinball machines?
WARRIOR4CHRIST70 KZ4LIFE Yes...I would say another 30 pounds!
What LEDs did you use underneath the playfield if you don't mind me asking?
We use non ghosting Comet Pinball leds...1smd
Really awesome. I wanna get my own pinball machine soon. Maybe Star Trek The Next Generation! hehe
***** We'll be here when you are ready!
todd how do u get the speech board to speak the sound board boots and plays sounds but no speech?
Paul in the witness protection program? :)
I thought haunted house was first pinball machine with 3 levels?
I don t see any link to the table tuto. You put your finger up to the sky !

TNT Amusements Inc oooh you re right ! thank you SuperTodd !
10:31 missed a golden Goat clip opportunity !
yes...but this video was WAY before I found that goat clip!
YOU HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO ELEKTRAS RADIATION! 17:06
thinking ahead way back then, soon will be 2024 and timeline will be restored
NOT every single ball goes to the lower playfield. You must have at least SIX Elekta units to make it to the lower level at the end of ball.
got one ;) and selling it
It sounds as hyperactive and noisy as Centaur. :P
+Bram25 They really packed alot of stuff into this game.
that voice sounds like the voice on the hard to find Centaur, same maker Bally loved the game when I played it once have grown to love it on the app. cause he's goofy
it's a great voice though!
TNT Amusements Inc
is it the same voice ? sounds like it
