- Flippers (2), Pop bumpers (2), Slingshot (1), Vari-targets (2), Spinning target (1). The spinning target has a dragon image on one side and a fire image on the other side. When it spins, it appears the fire is coming from the dragon's mouth. End-of-ball bonus.
- ipdb.notes
- This game was also made as a 4-player SS version Gottlieb's 1978 'Dragon'.
We previously showed a date for this game of October 1978 and a production run quantity of 507 units. The new date and quantity are per Gottlieb documentation.
Quantity produced - domestic: 69
Quantity produced - export: 439
Total quantity produced: 508
We received an anonymous report that two different plastics for the vari-targets were produced: one with red numbers (1 and 2) and one with transparent numbers. However, as we have only the red number version, we wonder if the transparent numbering is merely an example of red fade. Perhaps the part number(s) of these plastics would be different.
