i just sold my lethal weapon, and kinda wanted the last action but my friend sold it so it's out of reach.

i think data east is a mid level manufacturer, but they have some classic titles. my favorite data east is tales from the crypt by far. lethal weapon is super fun but gets a bit repetitive and mundane. they are super affordable and fun, however it seems that they did not really dedicate to their cause in their designs. Williams machines are much more fun and have deeper rule sets and longer staying power imo. i think the best bang for your buck is a 1990s Williams machine of any title.

if i had more money i would probably own at least three data east games because they are fun and have great artwork for the most part. overall though, i would put my money into a Williams or a newer stern. i just bought a metallica pro and am trying to get a simpsons pinball party next. nothing on the radar from data east at the moment because they get old kinda quick.
