# Fan-Tas-Tic

*Fan-Tas-Tic* is a pinball machine released by Williams Electronics in September 1972. Designed by Norm Clark with artwork by Christian Marche, this electro-mechanical game is themed around dancing, happiness, and music. The machine features two flippers, four pop bumpers, six rollover buttons, five standup targets, and three kick-out holes, but notably lacks slingshots. One of its unique elements is a captive ball spinner under the playfield and a kickback lane in the left outlane, adding complexity and strategy to the gameplay.
