Time Machine Troubles, Flipper Failures & Grand Lizard Hits the Road! Data East Time Machine Part 3

From the creator

Welcome back to Episode 3 of the **Data East Time Machine Pinball Project!** πŸŽ°πŸ”§ The shenanigans continue as I dig deeper into the problems with **Time Machine**. This episode starts with a blown fuse and dead flippers, so naturally I have to figure out what went wrong and why. I also install a **brand-new display** and get to see it fired up for the first time! Then the investigation moves on to the machine's **general illumination**, as I start trying to track down what happened to the GI and why those lights aren't doing what they're supposed to. But that's only half the story... Meanwhile, **Grand Lizard** is getting ready for its journey to Edmonton. Henry, the delivery guy, arrives with his truck and trailer β€” only to discover that the driveway isn't exactly trailer-friendly. πŸ˜‚ So what do we do? We load Grand Lizard onto the cart and wheel the entire machine **three blocks down the street** to the truck! Somehow, it works. Grand Lizard is officially loaded up and on its way to Edmonton. **Success!** 🦎🚚 And because apparently that's not enough chaos for one episode, there's also some **random sketchy shenanigans caught on the doorbell camera** while we're moving the machine. πŸ‘€ Oh, and of course, there's more **karaoke on Data East's very first pinball machine, Laser War**. Because no Data East restoration project is complete without a little singing. πŸŽ€πŸ˜‚ So, work continues on **Time Machine**, **Grand Lizard begins its journey to Edmonton**, and the pinball shenanigans continue!
