Dads and grandparents should keep in mind that vintage pinball is now mom-approved since Restoration Hardware started selling restored pinball machines. Interest in vintage pinball is at an all-time high. Ten new pinball machine manufacturers have emerged in the last ten years. The average price of a brand new pinball machine is over $6,000, while “limited edition” models are well over $20,000. This makes owning a vintage pinball machine seem reasonable. These vintage pinball machines from the mid-1960s are becoming collector's items. Pinrescue has spent this entire warm winter (here in the Northeast) getting quality machines like this Heat Wave ready for sale. The restoration was completed at the end of February 2020. Time is ticking. Some of the actors born in 1964, the year this heat wave was brand new, include Nicholas Cage, Keanu Reeves, Sandra Bullock, and my favorite actress Marisa Tomei. Marisa won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in "Cousin Vinny" as Mona Lisa Vito...go rent it! Cool Heat Wave graphics like ice cream sundaes and cones are everywhere in this classic pinball machine with these nice features: · Animation unit raises the temperature · 5 brand new pop bumpers with beautiful original caps · 2 rebuilt fins · 2 moving lollipop targets restore the Drop Target · Blow Your Top Lighting Specials · End Game Machines like the Heat Wave were present in arcades and on sidewalks across America back in the day.
