La Retata
Game is a conversion kit for Williams' 1986 'High Speed'. The backglass and playfield have images from the Hollywood movies 'Dragnet' from 1987 and 'Robocop' from 1988. "La Retata" is Italian for "The Raid". Mr. Geiger provided us the production run quantity and confirmed the date that we show. This is the last pinball conversion kit from this manufacturer. In 2009 they changed their corporate name from "Geiger Automatenbau GmbH" to "Geiger-Parts" and today they are the manufacturer and supplier of spare parts for Pinball, Dart, Kicker, and Billiard games, etc.
If you don't plunge the second ball at full speed after locking a ball, you only get a 2-ball multiball and everyone will make fun of you.
Before plunging, bump the plunger and wait for the tachometer lights to settle. Then plunge up the ramp, the ramp will spot a target.
If you get a Jackpot and have all three balls still, shoot then second up the ramp and then shoot Freeways for zero-risk points.
Getting two lit Freeways lights all spinners for 1k/spin, which can really add up, especially in MB after the jackpot is scored.
