- First time ever i played this machine in late 2022 after it has been brought to me for repair. Sadly the whole Cabinet and Backbox artwork is vanished. They rubbed it down to the wood. Will it ever be re-painted - who knows? The lockbar is self-made, too. The guy who did this made a good job. Several issues to work at on FAR OUT. Right drop target bank was not working correctly. The whole Start Cycle of this machine was out of control and so on and so on.
This is a typical Gottlieb pinball of this era. It is fun to play for a short while - then it gets boring rather quickly. I am really into EM Pinball but such machines can only last for a longer while if they are among other EM games in a bigger collection. Artwork is really cool! Greetings from germany.
I started university in 1975 (at the U of B.C. in Vancouver, Canada). They had this game in the wonderful large arcade in the Student Union Building. I played countless game of Far Out. Seeing it again today I'm shocked at how bad it is.
