I like WCS a little better then HS2 plus it's more family friendly. Can't go wrong with both pins. If you were going to re-sell the pin after awhile i might go with the HS2. The theme is much more popular.

Geebus we hate these questions .. resale value it's HS2 .. personal preference is in your court. Are these the last lowest prices you can negotiate ? WCS won't be popular in the US.

I thought I was going to hate WCS when I played it. I hate the art and I hate the theme. I ended up thinking the game was really good and if I can like a soccer themed pinball it must be.

If you like the art/theme I'd go WCS.

You need them both.

Ya both would be good.

Tell her they are just too good of a deal to pass up and you plan on selling the one you don't like later down the road. "Later" could be decades but she doesn't have to know that.

your just going to want another in a couple weeks anyway. Welcome to the obsession I mean hobby. (are you all ready checking craigslist more than once a day?

What condition is the HS2?

How red is the cabinet side art? Are the plastics intact? Those two things seem to be the things that get worn on the machine. Usually HS2 you will find faded almost to white sideart, with tons of broken plastics.

Is the machine firing up with no errors?

Great price on the HS2 to boot. A must buy if none of those issues come up.

WCS is another great pin, if you decide on that one too.

Craiglook is also an excellent craigslist search website. Lets you search up to 250 miles away from a zipcode or city. I check it daily. Plus, no configuration issues in FireFox

I actually enjoy cleaning up machines. You get to learn the in's and out's of your playfield, and what you need to do when its time to eventually clean it during your normal pinball maintenance routine.

Burn Rubber hole you can get a cliffy protector. Might cover up the wear, and will protect it from further wear. Will also probably help from the ball falling out when its supposed to be locked (common problem with HSII).

You will want to get new rubbers, and probably rebuild the flippers if needed. You can order the rubber ring kits by game title, so just do a search under HSII or Getaway.

Also make sure to add High Speed II: The Getaway to your collection, pdxpinduck. It won't be the only machine you will own. Trust people on the forum. We all tell ourselves the first pin will be sufficient. Before you know it, the pins end up multiplying. You turn into a construction foreman in your home, trying to find out more room for more pins.

I owned both at the same time, and I would pick the WCS94 all day long.

You going to make an HD video for your Fish Tales tomdotcom? Your BSD HD-vid is one of my favs online.

I dunno, maybe, I just finished shopping my Swords of Fury as well, there are alot of Fishtales videos already, so I wasn't going to do one. But maybe I will, depends how bored I get haha. Thanks for the compliment

The worst is when you start trying to figure out how to get some pins and keep them at your friends and families houses.

So true donjagra my No Fear has been at my friends since I got TOTAN.
