Quoted from albummydavis:

Similarly , the “pay copy” of Action Comic 1 is written all over and was used in court cases defending DC’s trademarks. It commands a premium over similarly graded copies because of its importance.

Exactly. This machine being "immaculate" would be missing the point of what it is. Sure it could bear to be cleaned up but all those weird holes, marks, crude alterations and fixes are part of the story of THIS particular game and it's history in making Twilight Zone pinball what it is.

It would be nice to hear him weigh in, but this game may actually have been used and played by Pat Lawlor as part of the final design process to get us the TZ we all know and love.

I don't know if that's worth 65k but it IS damn cool.

Quoted from Frippertron:

Certain Comic books especially golden age ones are worth so much because they were printed on crappy paper and meant to be read by kids for that week/month then thrown away. They were never meant to be a collectable which is exactly why they became collectable, at least the significant issues. They're just not many left. Pinball machines are a different beast. There are many TZ pins left, being a prototype doesn't add much value. This isn't a non production game. TZ is one of the most popular games out there. This would be worth a bunch if it was a game like Krull or Goin' Nuts but it's not.

These are commercial use games, meant to spend a few years in an arcade, get beat to death, and be discarded. Not all that different from comics really. These games really weren't made to be collected and played almost 30 years later!

Of the 15000 TZs that were made, how many do you imagine are left?
