Skyrocket

Full-length view of a single-level electro-mechanical pinball playfield under glass, photographed with the whole cabinet and coin door visible. The lower two thirds is a pale pink field dominated by a black-outlined triangle of fireworks bursts radiating from a central starburst, with black star-shaped callouts reading START SKYDOCKET, OPEN CELL 150, OPEN CELL 250. Down each side of this triangle runs a descending row of round inserts: yellow and white lamps labelled 1000, 3000, 5000, and two glowing cyan-blue lamps labelled SHOOTS AGAIN, plus EXTRA BALL 1000 below. Lower left and lower right are mirrored cartoon illustrations of long-haired young women in gold/yellow bowling shirts, each shown from the chest up holding a bowling ball, with COLLECT BONUS ATTACK, COLLECT HYPNOSIS and SCORE lettering beside them. The upper third is a red and magenta area with three large white pop-bumper caps ringed by red and blue star bursts, each stamped 100 VALUE. A yellow ball-release chute with a clear plastic wireform ramp runs down the right side. The apron is bright yellow with black arrow graphics, a white instruction card, a chrome strike bar and two red-sleeved flippers. The cabinet sides are pale teal-green with yellow starburst decals.

A pop-art, comic-book style backglass with a hot magenta-purple background crowded with stylised golden and white fireworks bursts. Down the left runs a huge diagonal title in pale mint-green block capitals with heavy black outline and white three-dimensional drop shadow: SKY (set vertically) continuing into ROCKET, with the final T towering into the lower centre. At upper left a white cursive script name sits above the title, and red block letters GAME OVER appear behind it. Two black, curved, floating score panels with cream/tan number windows dominate the right: the upper arc reads 2 8 8 7 0 beside a small 1 UP plaque, the lower arc reads 1 0 2 3 0 beside a red 2 UP plaque. At least ten trendy 1960s-style figures populate the scene: several long-haired youths in headbands, sunglasses, striped shirts and mod clothing lean over a green-topped circular counter, laugh and gesticulate; a red-haired woman in a tight red dress with white dot patterns leans back on the counter; a blonde woman in a yellow top crouches at lower left. Palm trees, olive-green hills and blue water sit behind them. Yellow-centred text reads 1 OR 2 CAN PLAY.

A brightly coloured cartoon-style backglass in a mint-green outer frame, dominated by a sweeping magenta and pink night sky filled with yellow, orange, pale-blue and white palm trees. Down the left-centre runs the title SKYROCKET in enormous pale mint-green block capitals with white faces and black drop shadows, stacked one letter per line and slightly tilted. A white cursive 'Bally' script logo sits top-left. Two black curved score panels sweep across the upper-right and lower-right, each carrying five white mechanical reel windows all reading 0, with 1 UP and 2 UP in pink block letters. Roughly a dozen cartoon party-goers populate the scene: a blonde woman in a pink-and-white polka-dot swimsuit and a bare-shouldered figure at lower left; a seated red-haired woman in a red top and a striped-suit man with a blue-and-white beehive hairdo at a round yellow table in the centre; a red-haired woman in a pink backless swimsuit standing at right with a hand to her mouth; two laughing bearded men with blue and grey beehive hairdos at bottom centre; and four small figures peering over the top score panel. Palm-frond medallions are scattered across the pink field.
