Fireball (pinball)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fireball is a historically notable pinball machine model released by Bally in 1972.

The table was one of the first to have a modern sci-fi/fantasy type of outer space theme as well as elaborate, painted artwork on the sides of the table. The game itself is notable as it featured several pinball innovations, including a spinning disc, moveable "zipper" flippers, and trapped ball bonuses. Fireball was an also an early table to have the multi-ball (three balls, in this case) feature. Fireball's main surface and raised surface also featured elaborate artwork of a flaming "fire man", flames, and stars in space. The table is highly valued as a collector's item.
