Hi Pinside ATFMer's

I am really on the fence about this...have been contemplating for a month. I had a mid-life crisis and bought a Harley a few years back...proceeded to dump it, had it fixed and sold it. I think I am just going to take the leap. I feel like I can afford it...just stings a bit!

Congratulations to everyone who just got one! They look beautiful! I had a chance to play an SE at CA Extreme last month, and it was clearly the machine I had to be torn away from. I am leaning towards an LE because I may never do this again, and if I am going to spend $7200, I may as well go all in and spend $8k...LOL/

This will be my first NIB machine. I have come close to pushing the button a few times. Any advice before pulling the trigger? You only live once....

Thanks Everyone,

Appreciate the feedback and encouragement. I am thinking LE has some really neat features....love the topper. I am justifying this as an investment too...LOL.

Am I allowed to ask about recommended dealers and experiences with them? I don't want to violate forum rules, but would really like to know. Everyone is the same price, so it's really a matter of who am I dealing with. Not asking to bash or anything...just want a good experience.

Hence the LOL regarding investment.

Seriously though, I appreciate the feedback and recommendations. I grew up on arcade games, but as an adult they are more fun to fix than play.

I am going to sleep on this and make some inquiry calls in the AM. Will report back.

Pulled the trigger on an LE earlier this week. I have a wait in front of me, but I am very excited and happy to see you guys getting yours! They look AWESOME!!!!!

Grats! I just used one of those trailers to move my daughter to college...easy to pull and really do the trick!

Absolutely Gorgeous Machines....congratulations to the new proud owners. The pics are beautiful....keep them coming!

I've tried not to look at the thread too much because I know I am pretty far down the list...LOL...In fact, I have been purposefully playing less pinball so when mine arrives, I'll be jonesing.

Hope you new owners are enjoying them! They look amazing! Great photos guys!

I ordered mine (Martian Green) at the end of August. I heard that Chicago Gaming went back into AFM LE production on 11/13 and should make 10 to 15 a day once they get rolling. Of course...there are a lot of dealers out there and a lot of people on the list...hoping for Christmas or New Years, but that hope is just based on optimism LOL. This is my first brand new pin...so I am more than excited.

Grats to the new owners and new soon to be owners...exciting! Mine will be going in the living room when it gets here.

Ya know Ozzy...really the answer is what do you want? This AFMR LE is my first new pin and AFM has always been a favorite. I played the SE at Ca Extreme and fell in love with it and new it would be my first new pin. I felt the extra $ was worth it for me...might not be for you. TSPP is a really fun game. I prefer AFM but again...that’s just me. Weigh it out and get what makes YOU happy.

619 In transit!!!! Possible delivery tomorrow!

619 Landed one week ago today. Just getting a break to post some pics. I am very happy.
