Judge Dredd
Bally, 1993This is an undocumented HUO Bally Judge Dredd. The cabinet has no fade and a couple minor scratches. LEDS installed throughout and a green Xpin LED display installed. This is a great example if you are looking for a minty JD.
There is a broken slingshot plastic and another chipped plastic
Original eagle topper and topper is included but it is broken and missing half of the eagle.
$2800

Nice grab! How much did you get it from that guy in Beverly Hills for? Man you turn them around quickly. I bet it went cheap as it was the only pinball he had with his "mancave lot" that was for sale. Either way, good luck turning that profit! You get the good deals from CL so fast that the rest of SoCal is left with not too many options but buying from you.
O-din was just telling me that he has 3 of these...are you guys related?
Quoted from tamoore:I hope this sells at 2800. That would make mine worth 3500....
Thats my estimate of the one the Captain has. Stay tuned.
Am I crazy or am I the only one who doesn't like the artificial color added to the game by the backbox & GI leds?
I mean, its kind of pretty but its definitely not how the game is supposed to look. Or maybe I'm just a purist.
I'd be all for white GI leds & the usual insert LEDs though, I think. Also the reason I say white for GI is because this isn't the most well lit game to play in a dark room.
Not sure the game can be considered minty with multiple broken plastics & half an eagle topper tho! Also the plumb bob weight is missing. Who is taking all those!
Can't tell how nice the PF is from those pics, but it sounds nice. Cab looks real nice, maybe even nicer than my HUO JD because the only real flaw on my entire game is the very front of the cab where the reds are more orange. Sides are good though.

You're not crazy, I agree because usually it just doesn't color the area the person is intending to color, it bleeds out to a larger space which looks bad IMHO. I also agree that I don't know how you could make any enthusiasticly positive statements on the condition of this game based on those pictures.
Most of the lights in that backbox appear to not even be working, two strings may be out. The color selection is extremely strange.

I let a buddy go crazy with the leds. I dont think he was completely finished. Game is available for pickup in 90210
No green or red fade on the cabinet is a good thing. The pictures are pretty bad. Might be a nice machine. If you want top dollar, take top quality pictures.
Nice looking Dredd. I just picked up a nice one last night. I paid close to what you're asking. I've had my eyes on JD for a while and couldn't seem to find a nice one anywhere. They always seem to be beat up and faded, not something I want to display in my home. So when I found the one I picked up, I was happy to fork over the dough for a CQ example. It's hard to find a really nice machine. Best of luck with your sale!
Quoted from davewtf:looks like it has quite a bit of wear by the right coin slot. how sure are you that this is HUO?
I was about to post that - your undocumented HUO just got documented non-HUO 
but looks nice otherwise.
There's too much of this "possibly HUO" stuff floating around these days.
Quoted from davewtf:looks like it has quite a bit of wear by the right coin slot. how sure are you that this is HUO?</blockquote
it has been drilled for a lockbar as well..
Lots of games from this era came drilled from the factory. Not positive if JD was one or not, but it's very possible.
Quoted from surfsidedetail:Original eagle topper and topper is included but it is broken and missing half of the eagle.
???
Quoted from o-din:There, now my garage Dredd is near mint too!
That is some funny stuff
Quoted from Jediturtle:Lots of games from this era came drilled from the factory
My JD is not drilled for lock bar.
Quoted from corvair61:You almost forgot to add a picture of your topper.. Here you go!
Is half a topper better than no topper? It's included!

Its tape residue as he had guests sticking quarters in it. I took the previous owner's word and if you saw the machine in person you would agree. The pictures suck and the game is at a buddy's house an hour away so I can't jump and get better pics.
Quoted from kingfishtr:Hate to be negative, but this Dredd looks like a mess.
These pics aren't that great...so how can you say that??? Looks pretty good from what you can see. Some close-ups and PF pics would be nice to add. Might help the sale out. Maybe your buddy could snap some off for ya. 
The drama that surrounds JD is great! Odin look what you started
Quoted from surfsidedetail:The pictures suck and the game is at a buddy's house an hour away so I can't jump and get better pics.
Lets go Surfside! I want to see it! No work today, I was going to do my taxes- that can wait!
You are right, I should not come out and say it is a mess. But there are some strange things in the pictures. One of the coin slots is not lighting up, strings out in the back box, really strange blurry pictures of the inside. I guess I was just more disappointed that I didnt get to see some nice pics of a MINT Dredd.
I think if you are going to come out and say this Dredd is amazing, I would like to see some amazing pictures of everything appearing to work correctly and close ups of the quality.
Com'on Surfside, If I take the garage one to the captain I'll need a replacement! 2k cash- should I go to the bank? I'll drive!

Is this Brandon Walsh's game?
Good Luck with your sale

No this came from an older couple in Los Angeles

Coin slot needs a new bulb, I think the backbox didn't have all of the bulbs installed. Sorry to disappoint as I'm working to get better pics for everyone's sake. photo_(58).JPG photo_(60).JPG

Older than who?
Quoted from o-din:Older than who?

Quoted from AkumaZeto:for the price you want put a farking bulb in the coin slot.. INSANE!
