This game is considered to be the fifth most collectible game of the ‘70s. Bally released the game in May, designed by Greg Kmiec with artwork by Dave “Mad Dog” Christianson. Very pretty game, indeed. Production run was high at 10,005 units (the highest for Bally, since the next-highest production game was Monte Carlo at 5,254 games in 1973). The game was inspired by the movie “Tommy” and the musical group, The Who. Bally started dominating the pinball scene from this game on. The playfield of the game has a nice flow. Flip flags on the right side of the playfield flip over to activate different features on the game. Once you flip the flags and get the ball down the right lane, the features are activated and the flags reset. Getting the bonus feature to its maximum would light the special for a replay. Score is another way to win a free game. Playing the game was an experience, as the artwork package exuded sensual pinball excitement.
