Knocking down the Satisfaction target plays “Satisfaction” tune.

There are two color versions of the lower cabinet of this game. The manufacturer’s flyer, our Early Production pictures, and other pictured examples all show a cabinet with the band’s name in blue letters and a blue tongue trademark. The cabinet front shows the design of the Union Jack, the national flag of the United Kingdom. However, the trademarked tongue was supposed to be red and the Union Jack’s colors were incorrect. These cabinets had the red and blue reversed from what they should have been. This was corrected during production to show the band name in red letters, a red tongue trademark, and the Union Jack with its proper colors. Artist Greg Freres told us that, when artists did the stencil art, they seldom got to see a proof before production began. He intended the tongue to be red on all games and the cabinet front was intended to be the Union Jack. All the backboxes in the production run are painted the same and Freres believes they are correct to have more red than blue.

Care Instructions

REPRODUCTION BACKGLASS CARE and RECOMMENDATIONS

Never “triple thick” or apply any additional coatings to the backside of the glass.
Alcohol, acetone, and most ‘rattle-can’ liquids must NEVER contact with the ink.
If laying a glass down on its backside, always put down a towel or fabric to lay on.
The glass stock is tempered – so avoid significant hot-cold temperature shifts.
Be cautious of any impacts to the edges, such as setting the glass down on a concrete floor.
Never allow ‘sitting’ moisture on the backside. After 5-7 minutes there is a risk of ink degradation.
Do not spray cleaner directly onto the backside as prolonged contact with liquids may damage your glass.
If you must clean the backside (bulb dirt, etc.) wipe with a pre-dampened cloth (water or Windex).
After wiping, make sure the liquid is dried off (wipe all the way to dry). Do not allow any moisture to sit.
Glass cleaner sprayed directly on the fronts is fine.
Don’t let cleaner sit between the channels and your glass.
