Was it from the guy in Texas?

Went through the same hard decisions when I tracked down mine & moved a couple nice titles. I doubt you'll miss TOM but Your SS was pretty sweet. All in all i'd say you made a good upgrade though.

As much as i like MM, I wouldn't get rid of those three games in exchange. I'm not hacking on you, just saying that sucks to have to get rid of all of those.

How nice is your TAF?

I agree!! But.... Sometimes you just have to have one until you know for sure. Sucks you have to get rid of those great pins, Coasterguy. I just hope you love your MM more than I did.

Your TAF looks nice but i'd keep SS & sell the TAF. Your SS is sick.

Still wondering if this was the MM that was for sale in Texas?

I'm not sure I wanna know how much the one GAP had sold for. But if your thinking you should have bought that one it sounds like you spent some big bucks on the MM you got. You'll love it though.

Well Coast you set your sights on a prize and made it happen--Props for that man.

You sound like me, my two favs too.

I think MM is fun, but it's not deep enough to be top ten for me. I don't have a problem with the value, as it has been rising faster than any other machine, but it just has never had the variety that other machines have, IMO. I have always found I'm getting bored by the 3rd ball.

It is a nicer looking machine than AFM, however the shots are so similar, and with the super fast flow of AFM, I believe AFM is better, and, given they are so close, I just don't think I would add a MM.

I just had one offered to me, debated coming up with the extra I would need for it, and decided, meh, I don't really want it.

I’m not going to say it’s a bad game by any means and I’m not a hater, but it just hasn’t done it for me yet.

I am glad I got mine and do not miss the titles I sold for it. I can always get them back someday. I still enjoy MM more every time I play it. I don't have time to get bored with the game, the reason for me the flow is so excellent is how the shots work with the flow.

I learn more game after game, ball control is really important, you are punished for poor shots. Threw my first near 200 million game last night, it was so fun, I had so much lit and even more ready to go. Draining the last ball on that game sucked, I did not want it to be over!!!!! AARRGGHH!!! Gotta play "AGAIN!!!"

You will be very happy CG, it is a great feeling to get a pin that lives up to the hype, hope you enjoy it as much as am!!

I got a bunch of pins, and all I can say is that at least half of the people that come up to play, who know nothing about pinball, pick MM as their favorite. Second place ties with SM, AFM and CC

I bought my MM a few years ago at about half he going rate. Before owning it, i always thought of it as one of my Holy Grail machines. After having it a while, it's definately a cool game, but certainly not my favorite. In fact, it's not even in the current rotation. Guests would rather play MB. Kids like Shrek. I'd rather play LOTR or TSPP.

I'm glad I have it and it's definately a keeper, just not the pinnacle of Williams achievement that I once thought it was.

You're all going to laugh at this, but i like my BSD better than MM. I don't know how that would change with increased exposure to both games, however.

Me too, Dave! LOL. They may throw us in the funny farm.

BSD is great, and it has a strong "just one more game" pull that keeps you coming back for more.

Hard to compare to MM, but it is a pretty cool pin.

Everyone game has different appeal to different people. SM had a poor reception here, I owned it for over a year. It was by far the least played game in the line up. While I did personally love the challenge it presented, the awesome flow and great layout, I did feel it was missing something, not sure what it was. We will see how much MM is getting played 12 months from now Different strokes for sure.

I like my TS better than MM. AFM to me is just more fun than MM. I had MM for a couple of years so I feel like I played it enough for a fair assessment for me. The value and hype make MM a gem for most people and the humor and artwork. We all have our own opinions. Maybe we should have a heated discussion over homebrew on which one is better AFM vs. MM.

Hopefully my opportunity to buy a MM pans out and i'll be able to make a more accurate comparison. From my limited time playing both, I prefer BSD. I don't expect many people to agree and i realize that's an apples/oranges thing.
