Product description:
Manufacturer: Williams Electronic Games
Year of Release: 1987
Designer: Steve Ritchie
About the Game:
“Prepare for takeoff!” Experience the raw adrenaline and blistering speed of F-14 Tomcat, one of the most legendary and aggressively fast solid-state pinball machines ever produced by Williams. Designed by the “Master of Flow” himself, Steve Ritchie, this 1987 masterpiece drops you directly into the cockpit of a fighter jet with one mission: defeat the sinister General Yagov. Famous for completely ditching traditional pop-bumpers in favor of a blindingly fast wireform loop system, this machine perfectly captures the high-octane 80s dogfight spirit. Finding a beautifully preserved or restored model today is a rare opportunity. The visual spectacle of this machine is unmatched, highlighted by its massive, spinning emergency beacon lights mounted on top of the backbox that literally ignite the entire room during gameplay.
Game Features:
​The Iconic Rotating Beacons: Three massive, motorized police-style rotating beacon lights (Red, White, and Blue) on top of the backbox that spin wildly to simulate a fighter jet emergency during multiballs and high scores.
​The Yagov Kicker: A brutal, lightning-fast central cannon mechanism located under the playfield that violently fires the ball back directly at your flippers, testing your ultimate reflex skills.
​Tomcat 4-Ball Multiball: Shoot the sweeping wireform habitrails above the playfield to lock your balls and trigger the absolute frenzy of the high-scoring 4-ball multiball mode.
​Classic System 11 Audio: Delivers an unforgettable, heart-pounding 80s synthesized soundtrack complete with roaring jet engines, explosive sound effects, and the intimidating digitized taunts of General Yagov.
