About This Machine

Phantom is an electro-mechanical gun game produced by Williams Electronics in September 1969, cataloged as model 375 — it is not a pinball machine. Players fire at targets rather than controlling a ball, with each game offering 25 to 35 shots. Williams built Phantom in both Regular (Replay) and Novelty versions, and 602 units are confirmed to have been produced.

As a single-player gun game from the late 1960s, Phantom represents Williams' work in the amusement gun genre alongside its better-known pinball output during that period. Specific details about its target layout, artwork, and designer are not documented in surviving records.

With a confirmed production run of 602 units, Phantom is a relatively scarce piece of coin-operated amusement history, of interest to collectors who focus on vintage electro-mechanical gun games rather than pinball.
