Sleal16 may i ask you,when did you placed your order?Thanks

Swoods5688 Wow this got so much fun potentioal.Glad to see an idea so simple yet so smart,brought to life.

Tried to put an order from my distro since 10 dec 2021...unfortunately in the first place he just told me that there are no scheduled production for the first half of the 2022,after 3 months he wrote me that there will be no Maidens for the whole 2022 and no certain production for the next year.At this point,the uncertainty triggered me and pushed meto opt for a pretty mint 2nd hand Prem one from August 2019 build.Not brand new but man,this is for me the dream machine and i cannot allow myself to miss this one at home.Moreover the market is going crazy and this title seems to earning pretty well trough time.
Good luck for your research.

Hi guys,I'm new to the hobby and fell il love with this machine since my first ball played in september 2021.Decided to grab a HUO Premium and joined the club last week.Unfortunately i wasn't aware of the pooling/chipping issues on these playfields until i started digging on pinside's forums,then i checked mine and it is obviously affected.Build date is May 2019 and got something around 2200 plays.I was wandering how to deal with this and got few questions i would like to submit to you:do you think the ironing fix could be still an option here? Is there a chance to receive a new PF,working between the original owner and his distro/Stern?In the worst case,where should i check in order to buy a new PF to swap eventually?Thank you so much in advance

Scott8806 Tranquilize Monk VisitorQ Gorgar666 Ok guys,thanks for every answer and tip you allready gave me.I'll try to take some pics during the weekend in order to share.I took some more accurate inspections these days and I didn't noticed anything other than the extreme pooling under the posts.PF protector was put on from first ball,guide rails don't have any pooling/chipping underneath,and the cabinet is perfect(no scuffs,fades,bubble).Actually IF i can "fix" the problem with the iron and avoid further damage,i would be so happy with my machine.I didn't buy it looking to make a profit reselling it and i'm not a perfectionist collector,i just want to keep my most expensive toy safe and in the best shape as long as possible,set it in my game room and play the hell out of it without being afraid to find myself play on a white wood playfield any time soon.

I'll do the same on mines...i mean i'll provide the materials needed and force my wife to paint them.Still waiting for my Gus to arrive since 12 April...being european feels pretty bad when it comes to deal with shipments from USA.Steve did a magnificent job with this mod,a bash piece of art handpainted sculpture which was the only thing missing(not for me but i see a lot of complaints about it).I mean IMHO once installed,this machine will be packed with everything i could ever desire on a pinball.
