Full description

A football-themed electro-mechanical style playfield, shot from the player side with the glass down and strong window reflections. The whole surface is a teal-blue field covered in fine white speed-line hatching, dominated by a huge red-and-orange starburst sunburst in the middle bearing a football-and-crescent emblem and the words SUPER MATCH SCORE. Below it is a painted team photo: eleven footballers in amber/gold shirts, one standing back row of six and one kneeling front row of five, each holding a white numbered disc (1-5 on the crouching row, 6-11 on the standing row). Below the team are three white ovals reading x10, x20, x50 over the words BONUS MULTIPLIER, and SHOOT AGAIN curved over a plain beige circle. Two crossed wooden cricket-style bats with the stumps form the lower gate. On both lower flanks stand large cutout painted footballers (a pink-shirted runner kicking on the left, an orange-shirted and a yellow-shirted player grappling for the ball on the right) inside blue-and-yellow teardrop cutouts, each beside a football. The upper third carries two lit pop-bumper caps, wire ramps and rails, a red plastic ball-return trough, a magenta lane-change insert panel reading EXTRA KICKS, and several yellow diagonal lettering strips. Colours: teal blue, red-orange, yellow, white.

Full description

A square football-themed backglass painted in a bold, flat airbrushed style. A single male footballer dominates the centre: a young white man with shaggy curly blond hair, heavy dark eyebrows and an open-mouthed grin, wearing a bright blue short-sleeved shirt with white shoulder stripes and a small diamond-shaped crest badge on the chest, orange shorts with pink-and-white side panels, orange socks with blue turnovers, and dark blue boots. He is captured mid-kick, left leg extended forward, right knee raised, over a heavily scuffed black and white football at lower left, with a rainbow arc of colour swishing beneath the ball. The background is a radiating sunburst of jagged brush strokes in red, orange, yellow and magenta over dark navy. Two chunky display titles, SOCCER (left) and KICKS (right), sit in rounded yellow-outlined letters filled with pink, blue and orange polka dots. Four red-framed segmented digit displays sit in the corners, each beside a big yellow numeral. Right of centre is a stacked instruction block: pink GAME TIME BONUS over a magenta UP/DOWN arrow, flanked by yellow CREDIT and MATCH BALLS TO PLAY boxes, above a dark green HIGH SCORE panel.

Across the middle-left and middle-right, two large title words read SOCCER (left) and KINGS (right), each letter split horizontally into red over blue with a thick yellow outline and a dark drop shadow. A single male footballer dominates the centre: dark-haired, tan-skinned, wearing a sky-blue short-sleeved shirt with a small round crest on the chest, bright pink-red shorts, blue socks with white tops and red boots, mid-kick over a large black-and-white panel football. Four rectangular score windows with magenta-pink beaded surrounds sit in the four corners, two across the top and two lower down.
