    Flippers (2), Pop bumpers (3), Passive bumpers (4), Slingshots (2), Standup targets (11), Star rollovers (2), Horseshoe lane (1), Kicker (1). Backglass carry-over feature gives award for completing S-I-L-V-E-R-B-A-L-L (operator option). Going through the horseshoe lane or top center rollover when lit changes an outlane located below the flippers into a kicker that propels an otherwise drained ball upward through the flippers back onto the playfield. Balls that exit via the left or right outlanes can be nudged by the player onto unique wireforms that will route the ball to this center outlane/kicker. Maximum displayed point score is 999,990 points per player. Actual measured weight: 232 lbs (includes legs).
    ipdb.notes
    One of the playfield plastics shows artist Kevin O'Connor's Jeep Cherokee drawn in chrome. According to Kevin at the 2004 Texas Pinball Festival, some of the reflections in the silver balls on the sides are of Kevin himself, who wore a beard for many years. The game came to O'Connor as a blank whitewood and he designed the art from an idea he got from a comic by a comic who drew everything in chrome, tying in well with the pinball.
