Favorite Pinball Machine
All
This may be a tough one but someone out there will know the answer (I hope)!! I am trying to find the name of a pinball machine I played for hours a day in high school and can only provide a time frame and basic description and HOPEFULLY someone can throw some names out there and I can research to see if it is the machine I am talking about!

The machine was a roller coaster themed machine and I was playing it between 1988 and 1989. It didnt seem to be too old at the time so I am guessing it was made between 1980 and 1987. I dont know anymore than that, other than I loved playing it and want to buy one now. ANY SUGGESTIONS ARE MUCH APPRECIATED!!

Comet had the duck sounds for "the shooting gallery" bank targets and the orange curly-cue ramp in the upper left corner and the "One Million" pts. skeeball shot in the upper right corner. And a center-shot roller-coaster ramp. Mr. and Mrs. Reagan are seen riding the coaster in the backglass.

It's sequel, "Cyclone" had a long smooth center roller-coaster ramp, a ferris wheel shot in the upper left corner and a mini-coaster shot in the upper right corner. The Plunger lane had a gobble hole-style skeeball skill shot. The late John Belushi is seen riding the coaster in the backglass. This was after his death, possibly as a tribute or a snipe at me.

searching for pins? visit the IPDB

(I did not know that is was John Belushi's image in the back glass! That is so cool as I loved him and think it a waste he died when he did
gee all these years of playing it too and I never even noticed that)

oh for any info on pins go to that link you see in those posts up there:

http://www.ipdb.org/

this stands for the "international pinball data base" if they don't have it then it's a rarity and you must search it out

Very strange. The answer "Cyclone" was not visible when I responded.

The post must of got lost in Cyberspace I guess...
 
And I got it backwards!!
Belushi was on "Comet", seen with his arms outstretched in the rear seat of the coaster.

The Reagans are in the front seat on Cyclone.
