Quoted from vid1900:

There is no way to know about the build quality yet.
Will the new clear coat be durable?
Will the new, digitally printed playfields hold their color, or fade in a few years?
Will the digitally printed inks react with the tannins in the wood over time and darken the lighter colors?
Will the clear and printing hold up on the sides of the machine, or will it cloud from the skin acids as has happened on some guitar finishes?
Will the new electronic boards be repairable, or do they have 7 layer circuit boards and surface mount components that can't be repaired by mere mortals?
Will the new computer system hold up to the vibration of pinball? Will it require resetting all the time as it ages?
Can the illumination of the LCD be field serviced, or does it have to be sent in for service (or worse, simply replaced)?
Too many things have to prove themselves before the quality and durability can be judged.

This is a very legitimate point. As an owner of multiple pins, knowing how to source parts is a fundamental must. It will be interesting to discover over time the logistics that are in place for service. I personally like to know the serviceability of my pins prior to purchasing them....
