I would NOT send ANY money at this time. Just wait, you don't have to be the first to own 2.0. Look how long WOZ buyers are waiting for their games and WOZ has a build and sales record. Does 2.0? Keep your money in your pocket. I love my BoP.

Get the nice one! Even if BOP 2.0 doesnt happen you still have a nice fun game, it will be the last to leave my collection!

Go for the restored one. I LOVE my Bride of Pinbot and will never get rid of it. I am not sold on BoP 2.0 to be completely honest, I think its way overhyped. Maybe my perception will chance once I play it, but for now, meh. I bought my BoP because I wanted to play BoP.

As other posters have mentioned, get the nice one. BOP is a terrific game. On BOP 2.0, they are good guys so don't worry about losing your money. That being said, I'd wait to pay until they announce they are shipping and past any license issues. Just logical approach.

If you have the money get the better condition game. Also the BoP 2.0 kit is not a mod. It turns the machine into a completely different game and can be switched back to the original. They are past the licensing issues as well.

BOP 2.0 is going to be sold through PPS. Just anounsed over the weekend that a deal had been made. Also stated it would ship in quarter 2.

If funds allow get the high end one as it will be easy to sell down the road if you want to as there aren't many nice ones out there. Problem with the lower quality one is that there is not a repo pf or plastics for BOP yet. Rick said one was coming but we don't know when.

It's hard to find plastics and playfields for BOP's and if you do it's $$$. They're in the works but who knows how long you'll have to wait. I'd go with the nice one.

I hear the pf's are close

God I hope so. I am never one to splurge on really expensive pinball parts, but my cabinet is MINT and my playfield is so worn out its depressing. I would buy a clearcoated repro playfield so damn fast.

I'd bet a good amount of money that they will surface within the year.

DP guys are not fly-by-night....I am in on TBL and have realized that these guys want to under-promise and over-deliver....(without making any promises in the dark). I think they are a group that crosses their T's and Dot their I's before anything is released. (the way it should be)
