King Tut / King Rex

Full-length electro-mechanical playfield on a yellow-gold ground, photographed in its cabinet with chrome side rails, the black coin door and two coin slots below, and the front cabinet apron showing teal and orange striping. The lower third is a flat golden play area with two red rubber-tipped flippers, two white flipper bats, two tall green obelisk kicker posts capped with small round bumpers and labelled OFF KICKER, and a black rectangular inset carrying seven round white inserts lettered K I N G on the top row and R E X on the bottom, each ringed in red with a black background panel. Above that, two painted Egyptian figures flank a central pedestal: on the left a dark-skinned pharaoh in a white nemes-style collar, cream kilt with green and red panels, standing with both arms raised; on the right a dark-skinned kneeling pharaoh in a white-and-blue striped headcloth with green and red trim, one arm lifted in adoration. Four white pop-bumper caps with red sunburst ribs sit in a diamond in the upper half, flanked by two red-and-white round bumpers near the top arch. The arched top section carries a fan of card-suit and hieroglyph motifs in red, green and white, with kicker lane inserts numbered 10 and 1000 and red script logos at the upper left and right. Triangular side inserts at mid-left and mid-right show palm trees and a jackal-headed figure. Instruction cards and score rules occupy the apron below the flippers.

Translucent backglass in a heavily chipped turquoise-painted wooden outer frame, bare wood showing through at the worn corners. Inside, a thin band of dark green and black horizontal stripes runs across the top and again along the bottom, framing a mottled pale mauve, pink and sandy-tan field. The left third is dominated by a vertical reddish-brown wood-grain column bearing two small red-brown outline drawings of standing Egyptian figures in profile, with a line of small lettering beneath them. Overlapping this column is a large frontal pharaoh bust: a golden-tan face with dark outlined eyes and brows, a blue-and-gold horizontally striped nemes headdress with a cobra headband, and a short false beard. On the upper right a long green-outlined recumbent big cat or jackal lies on its belly with a human figure in a blue kilt draped face-down across its back, and a small yellow bird hovers above. Beneath the animal, four squat jars in blue, orange, black and green sit in a row on a shelf. Lower right are three large canopic jars, turquoise and blue-green with black and gold banding, with dark tops. Frieze bands of tiny standing Egyptian figures run across the top and bottom edges between blocky green and tan architectural shapes.

Tall portrait backglass in a heavy dark green/teal speckled outer border, painted in flat angular cartoon art on a mustard-ochre and olive desert background. Upper left is a white stepped obelisk/pyramid bearing a red-faced, black-haired Egyptian-style head with a white-and-black striped nemes headdress and gold disc at the crown; across it, tall condensed orange letters with white outline read KING above REX. Beside the head, a cursive signature logo reads Bally. Upper right a horizontal black reel window shows five white number cards, 2 0 7 9 0, with a black horizontal bar and an ankh-and-crowned-scarab motif at its left end; above it, two rows of Egyptian pictographs (crown, chalice, bird, crescent, spiral, scarab, eye of Horus, ankh, jackal, quail chick) run across the sky, with two flat orange pyramids and a palm at far right. A flaming orange sun disc reads GAME OVER in white. Centre-left a white-helmeted soldier in a white-and-teal feathered wing costume is being speared and impaled; at right a striped-teal-and-orange pharaoh in a broad collar and white pleated kilt raises a khopesh sword. Lower centre an orange-faced, red-capped soldier screams upward. Lower left a brown-skinned woman with a bobbed fringe peers over a stack of treasure chests spilling cards and coins. Slanted text reads TO PLAY.
