    Quoted from Ericpinballfan:

    Yes, they should make them again.
    To late to add a poll?
    With the p-3 system, mirco playfields, these could be done in the 3k list price range.

    It would cost around the same to build one of these as a full size pin if you think about it.

    - same development costs
    - similar playfield cost
    - same electronics cost
    - same labour costs
    - similar parts costs (same flippers, slings etc)
    - cabinet much the same
    Etc
    Etc

    Maybe $3999 like a Spider-Man Home Edition? That’d be a fair comparison.

    Honestly, I don’t see a huge queue forming to buy a new cocktail. A few, for sure. Maybe a good project for a small outfit.

    Quoted from Mr68:

    I enjoy them both and my guest do also.

    I like having a bash on them too.

    I guess the question is, would you pay $4000 for a new one?
