66 John Gabaldo 12/4/97 ?????-000598 Burlington, WI My game is in excellent condition with all the prototype features less the eyeball shooter, but I'm working on that.
67 Tim Bentz 9/23/96 51048-100902 Vancouver, WA This game originally belonged to a collector in England, then sold & shipped to a collector in Salt Lake City. I purchased  12/03 and had it shipped to my home in Vancouver, WA. This is one of my favorite pins. It has the lighted skull topper, LED multicolored skull pile eyes, illuminated candle flames, an eyeball shooter, glow-in-the-dark beast head, dancing boogie men, playfield hole protectors, and Treasurecove backboard graphics. There is no paint fade anywhere on the case or playfield. The case has a few very minor scratches, and the spider hole has minor chipping around the edges, but all has been touched up and cannot be detected without close inspection. The playfield hole protectors (just recently installed) will prevent further damage. I would rate everything on this game a solid 9.5.
68 Greg Swann 11/1/96 53348-102331 Shandon, CA LED skull eyes, dancing boogiemen

70 Scott Sawin 11/19/96 53348-102987 Sudbury, MA Very fun game!!!! Need to fix wear between flippers and replace crate LEDs. I want to add hole protectors, Boney Beast Ramp protector, new shooter decal, lighted candles next to updated skull pile, eyeball shooter and any available glow in the dark parts (flippers, lane guides, claws, beast head and beast ribs). I'm also concerned about the exposure of the slingshot plastics to ball play. I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions?
71 Dave Eason 9/23/96 51048-100909 Leeds, England It has seen some service in Germany at some time, possibly on one of the British army bases out there.
72 Dino Theo 12/12/96 53348-103700 Eldersburg, MD
