Predator and 99% likely a full throttle for me.

The predator is just something i really fancy for myself and looks like its going to be awesome, but the heighway machines will be for site use (Motorbike theme dont really do it for me, but neither did circes really) - ive got one or two places where new shiny pins with fairly mainstream themes might do ok and i like the idea of only buying a couple or so cabs and changing out the pf's as and when new ones come out.
Im a little worried about getting in NIB sterns at the moment as I want a certain amount of reliability if im paying like 4 x the cost of an old bally/williams or 5-10 year old stern like i'd mostly use on site, keep hearing mixed reports ..

Ive got a fair idea of the possible 2nd and 3rd heighway themes and at least one is far more up my alley so to speak, so we'll see if i end up with one in the house eventually

Ill clarify this by saying i do have a small interest in heighway pinball, and will probably get slightly preferential trade type rates on their pins - so that probably influences my decision making here, so not sure if that counts in this poll or not, may be a little bias i dont know (?), but only fair to be up front about it.

As were in the predator thread, and i have read most but might of missed this, i do site a few pins here and there, is their software/hardware going to allow for a coin mech of some sort so i can site it if i want to , complicated even further by the fact im talking in UK currency?? - Dont laugh or tell me im mad, i sited an acdc bib le in a local club for a few months, so nothings sacred

Shapeshifter - on my iPhone so not sure how to quite.

Anyway, it did ok for a low traffic site, it's only my local club and they don't get big traffic, which is one of the reasons I had no problem sticking a £6k pin there. It seemed like the more regular players weren't as keen as they were on some of the Bally/Williams stuff we've put there. Ive replaced it with a Williams Indy jones and takings are up so make of that what you will.

Just put two out in a new site, a pool hall with late drink license, DJ and lots of traffic (right in the heart of a student town with a massive university) so well see how that goes - I've given thema getaway and a T3 and said if it goes ok I'll stick in a scared stiff and something newer possibly.

If your atall curious my best site pin has been no good gofers, took really good money in not so good sites, never sited an Addams tho so that might beat it from what ops have told me..
