So I look around craiglist, feebay, here pretty much I see everyone just selling the "rare " Marilyn version....rare because only 200 produced ???, changed the name to Lola and sold thousands, blah blah blah...I was just wondering how close that number is, I cant remember last time I saw a "Lola" for sale, I looked on Mr pinball and they were all the "rare" Marilyn's for sale, I think the # is way higher than 200?? anyone know??

I heard those Marilyn numbers were total BS, that being said, I own a Lola.

Maybe add "which do you own?" to the thread title. Might get more interest. I assumed this was a tech question before I clicked on it

Don;t care one way or the other.

Marilyn or Lola doesn't matter. Who has a taxi with an original PF that isn't blown out.

Me - but the original PF has been touched up and cleared, but it is not a repro. (Marilyn)

Ever since I heard an interview (on Topcast) I believe where someone in the industry said that they changed it to Lola based on the Kinks song about a transvestite because the woman on the backglass is so beefy I think that the Lola version is a thousand times cooler.
