Review on ⚾ MLB Baseball Pinball Game by Merchant Ambassador by Rich Rickenbaugh

The finished product is great - a fun little game for our 6 year old nephew who absolutely loved it. The problem was that despite following the instructions, we couldn't get the baseball bat (or "fins") to work properly. It just seemed too heavy for the small grip it had to fit in and therefore couldn't "flip" the ball properly. Instead of disappointing a 6 year old and saying the toy isn't good and should be returned, we decided to be a bit smart about doing the surgery first. I unscrewed the back cover and found that there was a screw in the mechanism that drives the pinball/baseball bat that was not fully tightened and this was the source of the problem. Ultimately, this is an easy fix, but it's frustrating having to delay a child's excitement to completely disassemble the toy, fix a manufacturing issue, and then put it back together before they can play with it.
