Pikeville, KY
Have several photos, seems to be nice and clean with good play field, drac track is good, scoop has protector. Plays perfectly.

Quoted from Breadfan:Hard to say now days with re makes in the works. There's one here local for $4300 but not sure if I should do it!?!? Only reason I would pick it up is if I could turn it for a quick profit.
$4300??? And you're not sure if you should do it??? Did you bump your head??? I mean really bump your head???
Quoted from teekee:$4300??? And you're not sure if you should do it??? Did you bump your head??? I mean really bump your head???
Agreed, I would be all over a MB for that price
Quoted from teekee:A real nice, clean, fully working MB with no major flaws with a nice original playfield is worth $8k all day long...
Not in Australia , there has been a nice one for sale since Sep . The fellow did nt get a bite at $7400 USD so put it into storage .
Quoted from teekee:It would sell in minutes here...
For $8K....for sure in minutes
Quoted from teekee:It would sell in minutes here...
Guess that's why its on the short list for a Re make .
Quoted from Breadfan:I like it,but it's not a game that should be a long Time Keeper.
I disagree, if you can afford $ and space wise, any game is a keeper, and MB is a really great theme, nice looking playfield with cool looking toys. Dont get me wrong, I think the game has a few negatives (phantom flip) but all around a very enjoyable pin.

I kinda agree with Breadfan. Ive had a minty BK restored one over a year that I recently traded away pending pickup. It is a great looking pin and has some cool toys but isnt what id call has enough going on to be a long term keeper. There isnt nearly enough going on compared to the AFM that sits right next to it.
Quoted from smassa:Ive had a minty BK restored
I cant believe you put minty and restored in the same sentence 
Ive never played a BK, do you have a link to any pics youve posted on here? Id love to see it, Ill search your topics started int he meantime...

What did you trade it for?

yeah it mean to say a Bryan Kelly Restored MB. Traded it for 2 NIB pins
1 month later
I think that's a good price, but check the drac track (no wear and level), phantom flips and table motor
That's an unbelievable price-literally. For that price range your looking at one that normally needs a full restore and has been sittin at Smokey Joe's back corner of dingy darkness and swill,where dirty deeds happen and no one cares. 
I do not agree with a lot of this mentality/price. Condition is always relevant here (referring to the 4300 one)... A re-import MB that needs a new playfield could trade hands for $5000-9000, all depending on condition. Having said that, strictly using averages, I don't see why you shouldn't be able to make about 1700 very quickly on the deal, as long as the 4300 machine isn't beat.
Quoted from Dbaum88:Is $9k too much for a HUO MB with a great PF, color DMD, cliffys, Pinball Pro speaker system, LEDs, working 100%, nice cabinet though decals peeling a little? Closer to CQ than player's quality I'm told.
Probably about right, all things considered. But on a game with significant play, I would need to see a sales receipt. Else, it shouldn't be advertised as HUO.
You can remake anything, That does not make it an original. Do you think a 1964 Corvette original would be worth more than a 1964 remake kit car? And maybe that doesn't matter to some people. Just a thought.

Agreed. I think an original anything is worth more than a remake.
Thanks guys! I definitely pulled the trigger and after selling/trading Cyclone, FT, STTNG and ES, my Monster Bash is coming home this weekend! This will be the first color DMD I own and they really add a lot to a pin. MB is my dream game, a combo of Creature, Scared Stiff and with great gameplay. It's repetitive, but I never seem to care. Will post pics......
