This game is so close to being amazing, but falls just a few C-hairs short in certain areas. Main flaws are on the cabinet as you can see some touch ups. It is my 3rd Shadow, but my last had a mint cabinet. If only I could have combined the cabinet from that previous Shadow, with the PF of this one

That PF is sweet. One look at the Sanctum tells you what to expect.

Oh man. Drooooool. That translite would need to go of course. And I highly recommend whoever gets this have Chestnut do the shooter too, it looks great chromed. But really, gorgeous machine, someone's getting a keeper.

Don't chrome the shooter - black nickel is the way to go. Can't wait to restore my pf. Good luck with the sale - beautiful machine!

To each their own of course, but the movie gun the shooter is based on is nickel plated, and with the black cabinet I prefer the chrome to contrast. I'm super happy with the job Mike did on mine.

This is one of my all time favorite pins, a true player's game, whoever gets this is going to have a treat breaking it in.

Simply Beautiful. If I had the cash I would upgrade mine that is amazing looking and a keeper of a title. IMO

GLWS should not take long looking like that.

Not that this needs any bumps since it's likely sold but I seen/played it in person and it's very nice. If I already didn't have a nice Shadow I would be getting it myself.

This thing flew off the shelf, tons of PMs on it. Trout was the first to say he'd take it though at asking price. Deposit made and sale pending.

On one hand, I think that buyer spent a lot for a Shadow. On the other hand, this is an extremely nice Shadow and I'd rather spend $4500 on a nearly mint W/B game than most newer Sterns, I think.

it is alot.. but how often do you see a nice shadow? how often is it cleared? how often is there no gaping hole in the sanctum.. not often was my thinking..

Yeah. Gaping hole sanctums seem to be the rule rather than the exception these days. I just picked up a nice non gaper too.

Congrats!

There's no bigger turnoff than a dirty or worn Sanctum, is there?

Who cleared that pf, Dave?

I'm with ya Trout. I actually think $4500 is low for this. Where do you see TS clearcoated?! No sanctum wear ever to worry about.

I was just considering buying this one, and selling mine. The difference would be $1500, but a solid cc'd TS.

Grats!

+$1500 for the swap took me about 2 seconds to justify.

The Shadow wAs known for having the power to "cloud men's minds", but- after seeing the pics of that crystaljestically cleared PF, I'd say he's got a s#!tload of work to do to overpower THAT fine specimen!

Bump! (...in my pants!)

I have a random Shadow-related question -- can anything be done to prevent future sanctum wear? Or is it just one of those things that "probably" won't happen to a machine that's not routed?
