no one with a remotely decent AFM is going to sell it for less than 6500...those days are over...remake or not. They can remake the thing all day long but theres still only 3,xxx originals....that is important to a lot of people...more so than a stretched out weird DMD or aftermarket topper.

Its 2 totally separate markets at this point.

Either way - no decent AFM original that had good cabinet cosmetics and a clean playfield has gone for less than 7000 nor will it now. If you want an AFM for 5000, buy a trashed route rat and restore it, that's the only way anyone will find one that cheap - regardless of remake.

Decals don't wrinkle if you install the stern style metal leg protectors before the legs go on.

The mechs are all pretty much identical and easily serviced but the PCBs and light PCBs and everything else is totally unique
