FS: Practically Brand New HUO LOTR LE! SOLD...

Hey Everyone - (I'm crossing my fingers there are no "shazams" )

Here is a fantastic home-use only (fairly recently unboxed) LORD OF THE RINGS LE (Gold Edition). I purchased this unit last Summer (one of the last ones available new in the box). Since first setting it up, I really just went about tastefully enhancing it and keeping it in mint condition. Surprisingly, I don’t have a lot of play time on it with only 138 balls played registering on the DMD. Besides being a Gold Edition LE, here are the other additions to the game I made:

- New Shaker Motor Installed
- New Flipper Fidelity Subwoofer (replacing stock unit)
- All new LEDs throughout
- Cliffys installed
- All relevant Lord of the Rings figures (and a few other rare ones) added to the playfield (placed
with the theme in mind for location, etc.). They are completely removable back to a clean
surface if desired.
- Pinball Life “Backbox Eye Flasher” – very cool…flashes when you shoot through the ring (more
information is on the Pinball Life website)
- LOTR target decals
- Crystal Globe replacing plastic one (original included)
- Custom high quality (photo paper) scorecard inserts
- Original manual and goodie bag are still stapled in original location
- Includes pin cabinet protectors
- Also includes promotional flyers in protective bags & boards + keychain
- I have a square “cut out” from the original box (about 2 feet by 2 feet) with the Stern logo
and “LOTR” stamp including matching serial number.

Asking price is $6,250…essentially an almost new (yet enhanced) LOTR!

I’m looking to make space in my collection for another special game. More pictures are available if needed...sides of the unit are in mint condition as well. Game will also be posted on Craigslist (shortly). Cell phone # 630-849-5252. I'm located in the far western suburbs of Chicago - Thanks for looking - I appreciate it!

Brad

I have a question. So, when Saruman died and fell of the Orthanc tower, he then joined the army of the dead?

Joking aside, it looks like a nice machine.

That's an extremely fair price considering the condition and all the upgrades. If I hadn't just committed to a bunch of games, I would have grabbed this in a heartbeat.

Thanks to everyone for their interest...sold this LOTR very early today to a nice cash offer ($6,000). A fellow pinsider no less! How cool is that? I apologize to anyone I had to get back to late...I spent most of the night (28th) working and then packing & delivering. I did not want to offend anyone with other offers for trades, purchase, etc. I believe I got to everyone now. Also apologize for the duplicate post - "rookie" mistake...I thought I was still editing while adding pictures. Thanks again...

We at pinside frequently shorten peoples screen names to initials only. You know, coasterguy, CG, me TG. Brad...sorry. You're BUN!

It was YOUR choice so I am afraid you'll have to live with it.

I would congratulate you on your sale but I fear for you...Other than AFM and SM, LOTR is the only machine I wanted back after I let it go. But congrats anyway!

I am the buyer. I have to say, Brad was an absolute pleasure to deal with. He not only drove the machine out to my house at midnight last night, but he took great care to make sure that it was well protected and arrived completely unscathed. He was also nice enough to stick around and help me get the game into my basement, despite the fact that he had work early the next morning. I don't think he left my house until sometime after 2 AM, and then he still had to drive an hour back home.

As for the game, the thing is immaculate! There is literally ZERO wear anywhere. As far as I'm concerned, it's as if I just bought a NIB. This game has been on my radar for a long time, and I'm thrilled to finally have such a beautiful example in my collection.

Gweempose was a terrific buyer as well...its very cool the amount of trust you can put in a fellow Pinsider. I can only dream of a collection like his ...very nice games and I'm sold on PDI glass! It is fantastic...you have to see it to believe. Thanks again for the great transaction.

No problem "TG"...I brought that on myself! Maybe a name change down the road...I've been called worse

Gratz on your LOTR LE! Love my LOTR LE, it's a beautiful machine with the extra clearcoat and plating! My wife would never let me get rid of it (which doesn't bother me a bit)

I also added the figures, LED's, and it has a factory shaker.. I love the shaker integration on this game, Stern did a great job with that.

Now go put some plays on it!
