thanks 442,
it uses marbles to drop down through a maze exposing a pair of yellow lights then another, and another, then green... takes a couple of seconds from letting the strip drop till the green lights show... cool, sounds like a bell-less pinball machine... guy says 1970... any info ? thanks

no fears boys.. these are for car shows or charity events....

I read that the European version of the Snake and Mongoose race set, didn't have jumps or loops, but the Big Belter and Matchmaker instead. I say they got ripped off.
