The F14 Tomcat one looks nice but I think that I would rather wait on one of the repos. You would still need to get the NOS clear coated and chances are that it will have the same insert issues that all of them have had. They have so many inserts that every one of them has issues with raised inserts.

Really, the F14 I sold last year had no raised inserts. Guess I was lucky.

Very. It is part of why the playfields on them are so beat up. There is so little wood around the chevrons and triangles that the things warped and popped the inserts.

Crazy lucky.
The Chevron inserts crack even on NOS playfields.
