Quoted from wayout440:

Unless I am missing something, all you really have in the proto is red colored boards and some manufacturing handwriting. You don't have the original MPU, you have dented side rails (I had these, from someone dropping the fold down head on the game, correct?) and drilled lockbar - I believe these factors lower the value, not increase it.
Do you have any photos to share of the peculiar inserts you mentioned? Anything else different from the production game on the exterior?

Worse, this proto appears to be wired differently than standard production games and he doesn't have the right rom for it. This is like having the proto TMNT with the different upper playfield or the WWE with the taf style magnets, both of which were missing their original roms.

To the op, good luck getting 3k, but not seeing it. Just because it is rare does not make it valuable. Just because its a proto does not make it worth more than a regular game. If this had something unique to it that was removed from production then maybe (depends on what software it gets stuck on due to it), but you are missing the original roms and going in and modify the prod roms to work correctly is not easy for most.

Quoted from SilverballSleuth:

It’s seeming like I’m gonna keep it. I was definitely just looking to pass it along from the get go, but with the historical significance, and a small consensus saying it isn’t worth what I was hoping, it’ll probably stay at Möbecade.

Pass it along, you mean you thought you were gonna get a payday and when it turned out you were dreaming you decided it wasn't worth trying to flip. Sorry, but this entire thread screamed ad from the get go.

Quoted from SilverballSleuth:

I was gonna sell it before I found out. Now, I’m not.........
I have every intention of documenting this game’s differences to a production game over time, and even making a poster of such differences, and framing it next to the game.

"I think with the extras, she’s worth $3K~ based on that estimate."
"it isn’t worth what I was hoping, it’ll probably stay"

Yeah, before you found out...
