We all know that a MM has been built from available parts / custom made parts. Are there enough AFM repro parts that this game too would have a possibility to be built from available parts? Any specific item (other than the harness / habit trails) be difficult/cost prohibitive to make?

Possible? Sure.

Cost effective? Probably not, even if your time is free.

Saucer bracket and the triple bank bracket, VUK weldment.

Saucer bracket - Marco. Triple bank bracket - same as in Stern Spiderman. VUK weldment - Mantis Amusements.

If they keep going 9K and up, it might not be such a bad time investment...

AFM seems to be a bit more possible than, say STTNG or TZ...

Totally possible, and has been done by several people.

More information on this, please?

Wire harnesses and guild rails would be a challenge to reproduce. Don't know if anyone makes: apron, shooter lane ramp, or translite either.

Ball guides have already been made in mirror finish stainless steel .

Wire harnesses are easy if you are organized.
