Game - for sale

True HUO Metallica (Pro) (Stern, 2013)

Added: 2015-04-12 20:35:29 UTC • Ended: June 22nd, 2015
Condition: HUO - Documented (Home Used Only)

Price

Make offer

All right, so here we have my Metallica Pro, HUO.

This pin was bought by WeirPinball from Trent at Tilt Amusements, and WP owned it until I purchased it from him in Nov 2014. Still has the goodies bag stapled to the left side of the cabinet.


That being said, I purchased the game with the following mods already done to it:

1. Metallic purple powder-coated trim on the side rails, lollipop flipper button covers, and legs.

2. Spinners added

3. Cliffy on Mystery Scoop and wall of shooter lane

4. Creeping Death side playfield art.

5. Custom painted Sparky with attached EL-glo wires on the helmet.

6. Select LEDs along with select flashers

7. Green light in the snake's mouth.

8. Blue light on the captive ball for indication of "Mosh pit" prep.

9. Shaker motor

10. Plastic protectors around the slingshot plastics

11. Under playfield slider support rails

12. Custom "ball lock" coffin decal

Since I acquired the game, I have done the following mods:

1. Snake teeth, snake mouth decal, and red LED eyes. Picture of all three can be seen here in my post: https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/metallica-owners-thread/page/47#post-2278075

2. Laseriffic crosses for the back inlanes

3. Cliffys on the two inlanes where the wireforms end

4. Fuel lights underneath the playfield so the targets aren't always "in the dark"

5. Mirror blades

6. Creeping death decal for the speaker panel

7. Upgraded speakers from PartsExpress: 4" Pyles and a Pyramid 8" midrange speaker for the cabinet and running them through 2 Boss Equalizers.


4" Pyles: http://www.parts-express.com/pyle-plg42-4-coaxial-speaker-pair--267-717
8" Pyramid: http://www.parts-express.com/pyramid-wx85x-8-white-poly-woofer--290-272
Boss Equalizers: http://www.amazon.com/BOSS-Audio-Amplified-Equalizer-Subwoofer/dp/B0002OI39Y

8. Added the plastic for Sparky's feet for less airballs.

9. Fire decal switch covers sold by Mezelmods

10. Sparky Pinball's Micro Display Mod

11. Black superbands on the flippers.

12. Added LEDs anywhere there was an incad light. Kept flashers fairly stock with certain exceptions (mainly the two on Sparky were converted to LED).


So yeah, lots of mods done to this one. Absolutely zero cabinet damage or art damage on the sides of the translite or the cabinet body. Coin door is solid. As all of my other FS threads, pictures and video are below.

So, the price on this one: $5700. There's no OBO on this. That price is firm.

True HUO, all mods completely reversible. Yeah, it's a high price. It is also my "I don't want to really sell but it could be pried from my collection" price.

Photos are below and more are coming. Video is here:



Enjoy!

As usual a great for sale listing from NPO. Total coverage of every detail about the game. GLWS!

#4 9 years ago

Game looks great but why say twice in the ad you can pull the ad and refuse to sell even you get your price? I'm looking for a met but that language would turn me away. Your selling or not.

I suspect that he is expecting it to get trolled..

You know, like almost every discussion of a for sale item on Pinside.

#6 9 years ago

I agree, what's the point off posting? Are you just showing off the machine?

Quoted from jeffgoldstein2:

I think what it comes down to you is when you feel this way about a game - part of you wants to sell, and part of you knows a lot of work went into this kind of game, and you know you'll miss it. One day you feel one way, and the next day another...

The game doesn't make me come back and say "One more game..." like JM and ACDC do. I know a lot of people here have been wanting a Pro, and I am willing to part with it for a higher-than-usual price from me. In the end, I am just saying just because you pony up the money does not absolutely guarantee a sale. But that's with ANY sale on Pinside; I am just a bit more vocal about it.

So, I agree with the constructive criticism's given here. I will flat out say right here and now: ready to sell.

Throw $5700 at me, and the game is yours. I can do a lot of fun damage with $5700 - particularly helping pay for my new home that I sign the contract for to start building on Tuesday !

ever thought of adding some mods to this cool pin?

(bump)

That's a price he can't refuse. Not a bit lower so he will not be selling this pin.

Quoted from rai:

In all fairness to them, at one point, I was a bit ambiguous if I would even sell or not. I decided I am "all in", but it is a hefty price as it is the "pry it from me" price.

But you never know.....pre-2012, no one paid $3500 for WH20.

^^^ Good thing you have nothing I want .

Like I said "pry it out of my collection" price. If I wanted to truly get rid of it fast, I'd put it at like $3500.

#14 9 years ago

Obviously a well cared for machine, dialed in, and well modded. Can't complain about the price. There's a lot of hours and effort invested into this.

#15 9 years ago

NPO is a cool cat, partied all Sat night with him.
I bet he would consider a reasonable offer, if any of you were actually looking to make one.

Bumping this one. Since this ad went up, some things have changed.

The machine now has a ColorDMD in it - so yep - price is still $5700.

Price is base machine, HUO, 2nd owner with ColorDMD and Dirty Donnie painted Sparky. Those two mods alone add $800 to the price, especially since Dirty Donnie has said he's phasing out doing custom Sparkys. Reference link for that message is here: https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/dirty-donnys-final-run-of-sparky-figures#post-2340155

ColorDMD, well, it's a ColorDMD. Metallica was THE pin that, for the first time ever, potentially caused ColorDMD.com's inventory to empty out for almost all of May. That says enough for me.

I am considering trades for machines that I know without a shadow of a doubt I want and wouldn't mind replacing MetPro with. I was considering IMVE recently; I realized that I would "look back in regret" on that trade, and that I wasn't ready to let Metallica go for that title.

Machines that I would consider (+/- cash), that I know I wouldn't "look back in regret", are the following:

BSD
TZ
AFM
STTNG

If a trade does occur, I would appreciate both machines to be in equal condition. I understand if I get offered something like an AFM in equal condition as my MetPro that I will be adding cash on my side. I see the big picture here, guys; I am NOT expecting an equal trade for something like AFM in equal condition as my MetPro without me adding cash.

I am sure both recipients in a deal want a solid pin that can be plugged in and enjoyed. My Metallica has all of 350 plays on it; you can bet this machine is in solid condition.

Pictures showing the total plays and ColorDMD added for validity sake.

There may be other games I would consider trading for. Go ahead and make me an offer of a game if it's not on the list I provided. Worst I can do is say "no" !

Thanks for reading! If it doesn't sell/get traded - no biggie. Just testing the waters/seeing what's out there!
