Quoted from MikeS:I can't say I'm surprised as I don't think any of the other pinball companies provide populated replacements for similar issues. I'm sure if the issue proves to be bad enough, they'll still take care of you with a populated playfield.
This should help prop up the used market.-provided your used game doesn't have issues. Probably best at this point just to wait it out for a HUO game that you can inspect vs. gambling on a NIB that may have issues.
Iām 100% certain Stern provided populated playfields for Iron Maidens with similar issues
