Hangers

Hangers is a little-documented electro-mechanical pinball machine from Playmatic of Barcelona, Spain, produced in 1977. Playmatic, which operated from 1968 to 1987, was one of Spain's notable pinball manufacturers, and in an era dominated by American companies like Williams, Bally, and Gottlieb, Spanish makers offered distinct alternatives for European operators and players.

Hangers is a four-player electro-mechanical game, but beyond that, little detailed information about its playfield features, designer, or artwork has been documented. This scarcity of information is common for European EM games of the period, many of which were produced in modest numbers for regional markets.

For collectors and enthusiasts, the allure of a machine like Hangers lies partly in its mystery. As surviving examples surface and are documented, games like this help fill in the picture of Spain's contribution to pinball's rich international history.
