Are prototypes worth more or less than the production line machines?
I may not be wording because I dont what the heck I'm talking about so Im asking my fellow pinheads for your expertise. Please comment.

Probably more...but to the right buyer. I'm sure price goes up if there are major differences, like Tommy.

Shopping a real early IJ right now that will soon be for sale.
Stainless rails on mini playfield, real original "lost" plastic with light board, different insert[s], no extra ball button.
There may not be enough differences in IJ, but some games are definitely worth more like rarehero said: Tommy.

Yeah i think alot has to do with machine and differences, EBD for one protos with blue displays obviously go for more $$. but a proto F14 who realy cares about it except perhaps some collector.
