Whirlwind is Wonderful Posted on February 9, 2015January 8, 2024 by Kris Bliznick We just finished a full shop job on this Whirlwind pinball machine. This game cleaned up really well, and was great to play. It will be perfect for Phoenix summers! Williams came out with this game in 1990, and produced 7,300 machines. (IPDB) This game is notable for the fan atop the backbox that really blows air during gameplay. We gave this game a full shop job, tearing everything off the playfield to be washed, polished, tumbled, buffed, or otherwise cleaned. We installed full LEDs, too: Insert, GI, and flashers. We had some playfield touchups to handle, too, as well as some cabinet work. We also installed new stickers on the spinners. Enjoy the game, John!
