The Twilight Zone" widebody pinball machine. Designed by the legendary Pat Lawlor, this model is universally celebrated by collectors as one of the most mechanically complex and immersive pinball machines ever created. It serves as both an incredible, interactive arcade experience and a magnificent mid-century pop-culture statement piece for a luxury game room, lounge, or mid-century modern living space.
This spectacular machine is a "SuperPin" widebody model loaded with iconic show elements, featuring a working gumball machine that dispenses ceramic "Powerballs," a mechanical clock that times gameplay modes, a mini-playfield powered by magnets, and the classic narration and theme music from the beloved Rod Serling anthology series.
Key Details & Features:
Brand/Manufacturer: Midway Manufacturing Company under the Bally label (Label verified: Model 52720, S/N 52720184391)
Production Date: June 21, 1993
Condition: Excellent vintage condition. The playfield is remarkably bright, clean, and beautifully preserved. The iconic backglass translite featuring Rod Serling is in gorgeous, crisp condition with no bubbling or scratching. Side cabinet graphics remain exceptionally vibrant with minimal fade.
Dimensions: Standard widebody dimensions (Approx. 75" H x 29" W x 52" D)
Original Manual Included: This machine comes complete with its rare, original pink Bally "Twilight Zone" Operations Manual (1000073268.jpg). This comprehensive guide includes all original technical schematics, testing protocols, parts information, and operator adjustment guides—an invaluable asset for preservation and long-term collectibility.
Clean, Serviced Internals: The internal electronics, wiring harnesses, and lower cabinet mechanisms are remarkably clean, orderly, and well-maintained (1000073266.jpg), reflecting a machine that has been housed in a clean, climate-controlled residential environment rather than a rough commercial arcade.
