Pinball machine available

Okay, it's not quite typical fodder for here, but it seems to me to be close enough to count as on-topic. Two friends of mine (okay, a friend and an acquaintance) have a pinball machine. But it's sitting in a barn and they'd like to get it in the hands of someone who'll use/appreciate it before winter hits (it's been there for a few months, but this would be its first winter). I've never seen it myself. Here's what I've been told: It's a "Data East Robocop" machine. No date apparent to the person who looked (whom I'd primed to look for a date). One piece of glass is shattered; from the description, it sounds to me like the backglass - the vertical glass with artwork in front of the scoring and status displays at the back of the machine. I'm told it's also functionally broken in some minor way, but the person who characterized the malfunction as "minor" is no pinball expert, so I have no idea how accurate the characterization is. I also have no better description of the malfunction. The machine is near Ottawa (Ontario, Canada). So, my questions: (1) is it worth anything in its current shape, or does the damage (and/or maltreatment) cut its value to the point where it's comparable to the cost of hauling it away? (2) anyone have more specific relevant questions that can be answered by someone not versed in pinball machines or electromech devices in general? Oh, and (3) anyone want it? :-) (I'd be tempted myself except I have no place to put it.) /~\ The ASCII der Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mouse at rodents.montreal.qc.ca / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
