Trying to figure out which pin I should get. They are both local and relatively close in price and condition. I'm thinking JD because it sounds like a more challenging pin but the gf is all about some TFTC. Are these so far apart that it's apples and oranges? Any suggestions? Pro's/Con's of each?

Thanks for the input guys, I'm still on the fence.....maybe getting them both really is the only viable option here.

Well I picked up the JD last night, got it home and put in the gameroom. Haven't set it up yet but this didn't stop me from powering it up and giving it a spin. Man, gotta say, I really think i'm going to like this game, there is a ton of stuff to shoot for. DW mod is installed and pretty friggen cool..6 ball multi?? what type of insanity is this....complete chaos, but thoroughly enjoyable. The music is good and the humor in the call outs are great. Would like to give a big thanks to pinballman100 for holding for a few days till i could come get it, and for the led star posts he put in, they look great. Pin was in better shape than i expected, really is in immaculate condition.
As far as the TFTC goes, I'm still waiting on some more detailed pictures from the seller but from what i can see so far there is a small nick in the cabinet and some decal scraps. If i decide to go and check this out in person what are this pins problem areas? Anything in particular i need to pay attention too?
A quick thanks to all the guys on here who offered up their 2 cents, for someone who is relatively new to this its greatly appreciated.

Here are a few of the photos the guy sent me....i know...they are pretty crappy. He was listing it for 2k and came down to 1700. By talking to him you can tell he is absolutely not a pinball guy and probably hasn't ever touch the machine. Machine is probably going to need a thorough shopping, rubber, flipper rebuild ect. I'm thinking in the 1500 range personally. Maybe i'm too low though.

Yeah, I think this is definately one to go see in person. Looks like I might be borrowing the neighbors truck again.....glad i got good neighbors. I think he about dropped a nut the other night when he helped me move the JD into the house...lol. It's pretty slim pickens up here in NH for pins, well at least ones at a decent price, so I guess i better hop on this before it gets scooped up and i'm kicking myself in the ass for not getting it.
