Hardbody

A tall, portrait-oriented electro-mechanical playfield on a tan/cream tiled-grid background, framed by red pinball-diagram lines and black rubber. The whole art scheme is a parody history of pinball itself: an arched upper deck of chunky 1950s-style bumpers and lanes, a central collage of stacked pinball backglass panels and cabinets, and a lower deck built around a giant pinball-style ranking grid. Across the middle run two large curved title banners in chunky white-and-red outlined capitals with teal drop shadow, one over the left cabinet pile and one arcing down the right. Figures are everywhere: two pinball-women dancers in low-cut swimsuits printed as backglass art inside the lower target bank, a topless red-haired woman in a bubble helmet seated inside a red-framed window, a grinning cartoon clam/mascot, a lion, and a row of four identical cartoon men in white shirts and dark ties throwing their arms up as legs kick in the apron corners. Colours: cream/tan, black, red, teal-blue. Condition: glossy, worn, reflections over the plastics.

A photographic-painted backglass built as a collage of four framed pin-up photographs of the same woman laid over a cream-and-black mosaic tile grid, with a bright red inner border and a black outer frame. Top left, a large title logo: a cursive red script capital H on a teal square, followed by cream-outlined black block letters ARDBODY on a red rectangle, with a small TM mark. Dominating the right two-thirds is one big full-length photo of a tanned, dark-curly-haired woman in a red string bikini, weight on one hip, hand on her hip, staring forward. Three smaller framed prints on the left show the same model: top left, arms raised behind her head in a blue bikini against orange; centre, three-quarter view holding two small gold dumbbells, red bikini, against cyan; bottom left, close flexing double-biceps pose in a blue bikini on orange. Small logos include a red-outlined Bally Midway mark at the lower left, a gold artist signature at lower centre, a copyright line bottom left and a photographer credit line bottom right. A strip of red digital score displays runs along the bottom.

Painted pinball backglass laid out as a comic-strip collage on a white and grey square-tiled grid. A black band across the top carries the word HARDBODY in large slanted red block capitals with black and white outline. Three painted panels of the same woman are set into the grid: a huge main figure filling the right third, plus two smaller inset rectangles stacked down the left. She is a young adult with long dark curly hair and tan skin, wearing a red string bikini top and matching red lace-front bikini bottoms; in the right panel she stands front-on with one hip cocked and fists at her sides, looking out at the viewer. The middle panel shows her in a yellow-gold bikini lifting a chrome dumbbell in her raised right hand, and the lower-left panel shows her flexing both arms in a blue and silver bikini. Panel backgrounds are warm orange-to-pink airbrushed gradients, with a yellow cursive signature below the middle panel. The art is framed by a black border with red and white pinstripes; below it a black panel carries four red seven-segment score windows.
