I have yet to play a Shrek, but the theme appeals more to me than family guy even though I enjoy that show much more than the Shrek movies. If I had the cash I think 4-4.5k would be fair for a HUO, it looks like a lot of fun. Good luck.

If you do more power to you love when people find deals. I may know of one coming up near me, I will check for you.

The last HUO one I saw sell was for $4,500, but it did not have the service rails.

Personally sold a low-play mint one for $5k. $4500 for HUO is very fair. $3500 is more realiatic for a routed one with some wear and tear.

P.s. my non-pinhead house guests enjoyed Shrek the most out of all my pins. Great humor. Not too difficult. Best mini playfield on a modern pin.

Exactly...we tried the Shrek software on my buddies Family Guy and it lasted for about 2 games, before I wanted to rip my ears off...

Actually I have a Shrek for sale only because I need the room ( only have room for 3 pins). Smashmouth only plays on the first ball and then only until the song ends. It is movie soundtrack style music after that.

Also, fwiw, mine has the goodie bag and replacement figures in great shape with a small wear spot on the powder coated rail and I have it priced at $4200, which I think is fair.

Seems like the past few of these listed just sit and sit. I'm with you op, I'd like to grab one in mid 3s because I know the kids would love it, but sellers seem to think they're worth more. I could be wrong but IMHO, I can't see the popularity of this title going up. Kids being born now will probably not even see this movie. I haven't been watching too closely but doesn't it seem like the only recent Stern titles moving for more than 4500 are SM and LOTR? With all of the great new titles, why would someone pay the same or more for one that's, well.. older, unless you just really love the theme?

I was thinking about getting one for my 2 yo grandson and my daughter kinda nixed the idea. She said he has no idea who Shrek is. His fav is actually ACDC.

The Shrek VS Family Guy situation reminds me of how important art, sound & theme is to a game (to me).

It also reminds me we are all different.

Example: I love the shit out of my FGY but if it played Smashmouth & had a gingerbread man on it I'd lose my F'n mind.

It is a very fun game and the upper playfield is great - mine is HUO and looks like new and was made in 2010
Worth every penny of $4500 - Smashmouth doesn't play long and the callouts are funny..

And with pinball browser, you can now replace smashmouth with one of the instrumental movie songs or something else more to your liking.

I actually like it as is..

I have one just like it and would do the same price. Come on over neighbor!
