Title: There was a six skull cross design!? Post by: ChrisGuy on January 23, 2007, 06:46:40 PM I was playing GNR pinball today and for the FIRST time realized that theres a DIzzy skull on the bottom of the Appetite/Axl cross
(http://www.ipdb.org/images/1100/image-26.jpg) Is there a bigger picture of the design somewhere? Call me dense but Ive never seen that particular cross design anywhere. EDIT: Just found this bigger pic. Title: Re: There was a six skull cross design!? Post by: BurningHills on January 23, 2007, 06:56:43 PM I only noticed that recently too. I guess they made one for the pinball machine since Dizzy was an official member.
Ironically though - its Izzy's skull, but Gilby is featured on the translite. Also - I can't tell from that picture, but it looks like a Matt skull (I see a red bandanna) instead of a Steven skull.

Dizzy and Izzy were in the band together in 1990 1991 Title: Re: There was a six skull cross design!? Post by: BurningHills on January 23, 2007, 07:00:44 PM ^Are you sure it's Izzy?

Now. Title: Re: There was a six skull cross design!? Post by: BurningHills on January 23, 2007, 07:03:47 PM :beer: didnt even notice the Sorum skull. In all honesty, it looks like Adler's skull with a bandanna over it to make it a Sorum skull. Title: Re: There was a six skull cross design!? Post by: Buddha_Master on January 23, 2007, 07:04:40 PM That is interesting. Never noticed it. I got to play it years ago in amsterdam. I would love to buy the GNR pinball for my garage. Anyone know where I could buy it?

Title: Re: There was a six skull cross design!? Post by: kaasupoltin on January 24, 2007, 02:23:24 AM I wonder why I haven't noticed this before, so thanks for the info :rofl: Actually it looks pretty cool, but I wonder why Gilby's not there. Maybe it was made/designed in the early '91..
Title: Re: There was a six skull cross design!? Post by: Hkane on January 24, 2007, 06:38:35 AM Actualy the game was produced in 1994 and was produced with slash, if you dont know the pinball it acatluly has a unreleased song on it called ain't going down

Title: Re: There was a six skull cross design!? Post by: williambailey on January 24, 2007, 07:10:48 AM Yeah I have the pinball machine too, all the way down here in Perth, Western Australia.? See the pic below:
So Herman are you still thinking of trading your pins for a classic 69 Mustang Fastback? The Six Skull Cross design query also reminds me of a couple of other quirks with the artwork.? The original prototype translite for the machine - (see the second image below) had a few errors.? Axl, Slash and Duff are painted from a Sweet Child O Mine sleeve picture from 88, yet Gilby and Matt are hanging out with them as thought it's present day (94 when the pin was released).? In addition, below the main pic is images of concert footage from 91 and it looks like Izzy is actually depicted on it.? No wonder that translite got replaced.

The Izzy hat looks like it has been turned into Dizzy's cowboy hat Title: Re: There was a six skull cross design!?
