Topic: newly acquired table

[retro]

I have recently acquired a coin operated one man goalie table.  The outside of the table is gloss red with a black band at the top and says POWERKICK.  It does not have individual legs but rather has enclosed side to the floor. Can anyone give me any info on this table, manufacture and value?

Some photos would really help.

I attempted to attach a photo but it didn't work, I'll keep trying. Thanks!

Never seen anything like that before. A google search of "powerkick foosball" sends you to the Raleigh Bonzini website.

You could try messaging Alan Cribbs on here. I'm pretty sure he is associated with the Bonzini group. He might be able to help.

How does it play, anyway?

"Powerkick" is the name of the player's association in Raleigh, NC. They play on Bonzini tables. Alan has nothing to do with the table pictured, although with his vast knowledge of foosball tables and players, he might post something here.

I have the same table. Any thoughts on the value? Thanks

I can tell you anything you might want to know about these tables. A fellow named Joe Peck started a company in Portland Oregon called Amazing Games. He had these tables built in Clackamas Oregon.  I promoted these tables for him for about 2 years running weekly tournaments. They had trouble getting a good type man made. Some were stiff, others were soft and spongy. I was promised to get 6 new tables from him to put in bars. He failed to deliver so I quit promoting them. Shortly after they went out of business.  I believe this was the end of the 80's. Other than the men the tables were buitifully designed.
