#49 The Amazing Spider-Man - The Classic Pinball Podcast

The Classic Pinball Podcast features an in-depth discussion of Gottlieb's 1980 The Amazing Spider-Man pinball machine. Hosts George and Dave examine the game's design, artwork, mechanical quirks (particularly the weak spinner), and ruleset while playing multiple games. Dave has recently restored a customer's copy with LED upgrades and a Pascal board replacement to resolve reliability issues with the original Gottlieb System 80 boards. The episode reveals the community's uncertainty about the game's multiplier advancement mechanic, which neither host nor online sources adequately explain.
