Here's a 1974 Gottlieb Sky Jump pinball machine for your viewing pleasure.
Sky Jump is a pretty fun game with a little bit of aim and thought required. Hitting the 7 rollovers lights the 7 drop targets for 10x the points. Hitting the drop target indicated by the red light scores 10x the indicated value. So, for example an unlit drop scores 50 points, a lit drop scores 500 points and a double-lit drop scores 5000. Completing the drops also scores 5000. Completing the rollovers lights the star which will award a special when the drops are completed.
My only complaint about this game is that there's not much to shoot for from the left flipper.
Sky Jump is considered by many to be one of the better Gottlieb single-player wedge heads.
The game was designed by Ed Krynski (of course) with artwork by Gordon Morison (of course). For more information on this game see here: ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=2195
I tried to video record the score during the game, but the 2nd camera crapped out. Oh well.
