Quoted from oldskool1969:

All you Radical people will be happy as I sent the old worn playfield to CPR today so they can confirm the impressions etc.
Its all up to CPR now and hope we will see another NEW repro of RADICAL's play field in the not too distant future.
Worth noting that freight is a killer, AUD$395 to send from Western Australia to Canada, absolutely piss take if you ask me.
Good news hey?

Big thanks!

Quoted from rotordave:

I know we’ve had this discussion before Zach …
But I can’t fathom why you’d want to replace that nice original playfield with a new one.
That’s one of the nicer original Radicals I’ve seen. It’s sacrilege to me (as the original “I got all the SYS11s” guy) that you’d want to put in a new one for the sake of it.
Hey - your game! I have a mate here who is the same, buys top dollar mint original games and then completely replaces everything. Totally insane to me. Wouldn’t you be better to buy a cheap old POS and rebuild that to make it minty? I get huge satisfaction in that - to take a near worthless broken game and then restore it to make it top of the range. Like the Stars and Taxi I’ve done recently.
CARGUMENT - it’s like buying a totally original 60s car, then taking all the original stuff off and replacing it with inferior new stuff.
My 10c.

Totally valid point. And I may end up having it cleared, but I get my jollies off on a shiny clear playfield with fresh ink. And crystal clear ramps. And drippy chrome.

But my buddies and I have been sitting in the garage looking at it and going “It would be a shame to even touch the playfield or cab. It needs to stay itself and appreciated for it’s soul.”
