Quoted from Pinzzz:

What are peoples thoughts on the $150.00 Playfield Protector option that is installed before the playfield is populated?.Does the Hobbit @ the shows have one?.Mine would be HUO.
I remember the WOZ having issues with wear without the protector.And JJP sent decals to cover the wear.Decals covering wear would not be a acceptable resolution for me.
If you own a Hobbit with a Playfield Protector.And put 10 years of HUO on it.My guess would be that it might get hazy and worn.
But if you take the protector off at that point and sell it.It would be a pristine looking playfield with the exception of ball hole wear?.
I am on the fence about adding this option.Has anyone had one of these on any game for a length of time that could chime in?

To me it seems like overkill for HUO. Like gramma and her furniture covers.

Quoted from guyincognito:

WOZ was released 74 years after the movie and it sold OK, so Jack still has some time.

I don't think The Hobbit films have quite the shelf life (or popularity) of WOZ. That being said, The Hobbit theme appeals to me a lot more than WOZ.
