I have a Rob Zombie (Love it by the way) and consider it rare (300). I guess Mousin’ Around and Seawitch are sort of rare as well. Nevertheless, a more rare title certainly has appeal to me. I have Houdini on my radar. I’d also like an America’s Most Haunted. There’s just something about not always being part of the masses. Looking forward to following the thread!

Well, I did say “sort of” rare. You are also looking at numbers for when they were first made. Seawitch is 40 years old. How many of those 2500 are left? Just saying...

Everyone needs to relax... I never said age makes a game rare. I said I had a pin with a run of 300 and then a couple that are SORT OF rare. I also never said rarity makes a game fun. Anyway, I’m going to gracefully bow out of this thread. I promise I will only come back if I have a pin that falls within the formal definition of “rare” that you guys come up with for purposes of this thread.

So much for the fun discussion the OP was encouraging everyone to have. I’m sure you need to hear this for your ego, but clearly you are the expert. Please continue to educate me on the definition of rare.

I have a better question for you. Who cares? Why does it matter so much? It’s just a frivolous discussion on pinball. Besides, there’s lots of concepts you fail to grasp. Let’s start:

1. You fail to grasp the concept of simply being pleasant.

2. You fail to grasp that “rare” is a relative concept.

3. You fail to grasp that an item can become “rare” over time.

4. You fail to grasp that pinball is a toy and is supposed to be fun.

I also question your self proclaimed grasp of English. Just read your post - incorrect punctuation, missed punctuation, sentences starting with lower case letters, etc. It’s pretty funny when considering all the bold statements you make.

You are about to get hammered by my main man Dung. I just got lectured on the definition of rare by him - See above. He’s very passionate about his definition. 1500 doesn’t fall within his definition so get ready to hear about it.

You have a beautiful pin.

Then don’t brag about your proficiency with the English language.

I’m 46. You come across as someone who is very short and is trying to make up for it by being a paper tiger. Talk about a cliche.

Are you oblivious to the fact that you are the one throwing the tantrum now? Anyway, enjoy your day and congrats on your “rare” machines. I’m sure they are all awesome.

I actually agree with you that Seawitch isn’t that rare. I was just tossing it out as a “sort of” after my Rob Zombie. I think 300 is pretty rare, but it’s certainly more than 10 or 100. I certainly respect your opinion.
