You want a good bang for your buck game that will also meet your Arnold needs. Last action hero. Lots of stuff to do on it, data east games are great for first pins in general. My wife wanted a LAH so she just went and bought one about 16 months ago, I tinker with it.

I continue to do the buy add cash trade up game as far as my personal game, started from a EM, fixed it, sold it, added cash, got a gottlieb system 3, fixed it sold it added cash got a stern spiderman, upgraded it, traded and added cash for a NIB iron maiden, if you don't have income to throw around, you are gonna have to play the long game when it comes to getting what you want.

But if your working with 3k give or take... Do yourself a favor and look at data east games ( Jurassic park, star wars, LAH, lethal weapon, tales from the crypt) they are going up, but are a great bang for buck IMO, but a great way to learn on modern era games. Hell data east turned into stern eventually.

Really funny I stumbled on this post because I literally was just looking for a way to get a mod from you, check your PMs.. or don't.. either way. Love your work!!!

And something I had to tell my self that I'll tell you even though today's market is different. when you buy a game, play it, and eventually get bored and wanna change up your line up. When you sell the game, if you take a loss, don't get bummed out, I always told myself if I ended up losing a few hundred dollars, but I played the game for months or years, that money I lost was the price to enjoy the game for the time I had it. But today's market as long as your smart and dont pay more than what something is worth, your all good.

When you buy your game, be smart, buy decent or better condition, take care of it, fix any issues it has, clean it up wax it, upgrade/mod it if you want, and A number 1, enjoy having it, not just playing it but enjoy the whole process, the tinkering and the cleaning, and the maintence. Thats my two cents.
