Fingerprint: Central value lane with blue letter tiles A-O-U-I-T and bonus words inside red-yellow sunburst; large star portrait at lower right showing pale woman with blue hair and jeweled eye mask; gold wire-frame cage covers upper half against black-orange speckled galaxy background; four pink-magenta triangular plastics edged yellow; fan-shaped wheel aperture ringed by blue EXTRA BALL arc

Distinctive

The most memorable element is the long central value lane running top to bottom with the blue letter tiles A-O-U-I-T and its runs of numeric bonuses, all set inside a red and yellow sunburst. Second is the large star portrait at the lower right: a pale woman with blue hair, a jeweled eye mask and painted fingernails framed in a red star. Third, the playfield is criss-crossed by a gold wire-frame ball-search cage over a black-and-orange speckled galaxy background, with four pink-magenta triangular plastics edged in yellow. Also memorable is the fan-shaped lower wheel aperture ringed by a blue 'EXTRA BALL' arc and a blue grid pattern across the bottom of the playfield.

Full description

Vertical electro-mechanical playfield shot from above, dominated by a red, blue and yellow-orange starburst and a black starfield speckled with orange sparks. A central lane runs the whole length of the playfield carrying a column of blue letter tiles spelling A, O, U, I, T (with a small figure head between them) and value words BONUS, 60,000, 70,000, 80,000, 30,000, 20,000, 10,000, flanked by two curved red-and-yellow 'SPECIAL' banners. Two red pop bumpers sit at the top under a fan of yellow sunburst rays, with a wire-frame gold ball-search grid covering the upper half. Mid-field are two big pink-magenta triangular rocket/spire plastics outlined in yellow, two upright posts with black rubber, blue-and-yellow striped barrel shapes, a 'BOOST' arrow, 'LOCK' and 'BONUS' triangles, and a red star at each side. Lower centre is a fan-shaped wheel or spinner aperture ringed by a blue arc reading 'EXTRA BALL', with 'BONUS' and 'MULTIPLIER' on a white band below it, and '50,000 PER BALL' and 'POINTS WHEN LIT' in yellow on the lower right. A large blue grid pattern covers the lower deck. Bottom right shows a red star containing a pale woman's face with blue hair, a mask or goggles with a red gem, red lips and two painted fingernails. Lower left is an Italian rules card headed 'SPAZIO TEMPO', and a small yellow-red maker's logo with a swoosh sits on the right apron. Colours are garish and glossy, with heavy white light glare and scratches on the glass and steel rails.

Full description

A painted, comic-book-style space backglass framed by a glowing rainbow gradient border. The top banner carries the main title in huge block capitals: SPACE on the left and TEAM on the right, split by a red five-pointed star containing the head of a blonde woman in a silver winged space helmet and dark blue visor. Inside the central window, set against a black starfield: at right a helmeted male space commander in a red suit with gold epaulettes and a gold-trimmed blue visor marked with a small winged insignia, rendered from the chest up; behind him two white-and-blue cylindrical space capsules with domed cockpits, each trailing a long grey strut, angled diagonally down-left; a ringed grey moon and a smaller brown-orange cratered planet at top right; a large concentric-burst sun of red, orange and yellow rings in the centre; at left two white delta-wing fighters with swept fins and yellow-orange rocket exhaust plumes climbing over the curve of a brown, cratered planetary limb. The lower third fades through yellow, orange, red to magenta. A small black rectangular manufacturer's plaque sits at bottom right.
