Historical Notes

A special version was produced for Germany with the same project number and project release date. The schematic part number for the US version was W-1042-92a and was W-1042-93a for the German version. A gun game with a similar theme is Midway's 1968 '1 Million B.C.'. No overt connection was made evident between this 1971 pinball machine and the 1966 British movie One Million Years B.C. other than by those who would recognize the backglass art from the dinosaur fight in the movie. There was also a Hollywood movie One Million B.C. from 1940.
