So I went to A Town to get a new PF glass for my new BSD ( hey that's my story to the wife and sticking to it) and stopped by the coin taker table to buy a few LED's. I got to meet Chris and he had a couple of pins for sale. Two AFM's !!!! Thank god the one for 6900 got sold just before I got there or something stupid on my part may have happened but he also has a fully restored / decked out one for 11K. You could look but not touch ( i did leave some drool sorry Chris). Any way, on the way home I kept thinking about buying the one for 11k. Please some one else buy it! For 11K I could get 4 or 5 nice pins. No sleep tonight.

There better be gold and diamonds and the dancing women better look real good for 11K.

Id rather have an AFM in nice condition at $5,500 and then get the new TRON LE pin at another $6500. 2 for one almost.

Did you really say, 11 Thousand $,I would sure like an AFM,But probably would also have to buy some other titles first for that kind of dough,Somebody will have an immaculate pin,The 2010 pinball price guide says about $4200 for an AFM.

Actually the sign said 11,500 but Chris said for me, 11, 000. I must be special . The game looked great. New cabinet , stickers, Chrome, LED's , etc. Some one will buy it, just ask Treasure Cove. I want an AFM real bad but I could Get a JM, Dr Who, TFTC, and DM with change left over from my 11K. Still dreaming about it tho.

Definitely nice, I had not seen those cabinet decals before look sweet no doubt! But for 11K it better play good, make white russians, mow the lawn, walk the dog, pick up the dog poop, and morph into other machines at will.

That alternate art is very cool, but I bet it brings down the value in the eyes of some serious collectors. People who are willing to spend that much on a single pin often prefer their games to be as original as possible.

I think you are right on target with that analysis. That said, I really think it looks cool.
