Almost any system 11 (I don't care for bad cats, police force, or jokers, but really any are good pins)
WCS is excellent, and I second the System 11 idea, specifically Whirlwind.
BSD best bang for the buck in that price range... Hurry it may go north of 2k....
Al
+1 Definitely the way to go. Especially if you like the theme. A TFTC is also another nice option.
All the 1992 and up dmd gottliebs. Sega and de games.
And lots of the ugly bad theme pins but game play rocks
Ideally you could go with a lower end system 11 (Taxi, Police force, Pinbot, High speed, Jokerz, Millionare, and plenty more) Plus a gotttlieb dmd game (SFII, Teed off).
Doctor Who. One of the best pins at any price IMO.
By the way, your avatar which I believe is from the movie "Bad Taste," really kicks ass!
Hs,pb,cyclone,gl,sof,bop,dw,dh,t2,dm,sg,bsd. Those would be the ones i'd grab. Some might be pushing over the 2k limit imo. Gonna be close. Price is going to reflect condition.
Jackbot, Flintstones, Demo Man, Dredd, Fishtales, Whirlwind, Earthshaker, Bride of Pinbot, Starship Troopers, Twister, Congo, Terminator 2, WWF, Star Wars Trilogy, Jurassic Park, Dr Who, High Speed, High Speed 2 (Getaway), Dirty Harry, BSDracula, routed Monopoly, Stargate, Super Mario Bros, Jackbot (yes its worth mentioning twice) 
90% of the non-DMD's. Almost every System 11. If you want a DMD, almost any Gottlieb System 3 that is not named Stargate. There are a ton of B/W B-movie licensed pins that SHOULD be doable for 1-2K...but in this crazy ass market, who knows.
I gotta be the broken record here (do people here even remember vinyl and how it can skip?) and nominate World Poker Tour, still seems to sell for around $2k if you look around. Great Ritchie/Keefer/Granner game, tons of flow and depth. Also second the DE games (LAH) and some Segas (SST). I'd caution against BSD--at least play it first before committing. Many people like it as a popular BftB option, but I still find it a pretty boring game after a decade+ of playing it around. WPT>>>BSD imo, even SST>BSD.
Quoted from Matt_Rasmussen:I might add Jurassic Park and Baywatch, JP is a classic but Baywatch is a really tough game. Stupid theme yes, but a pretty dang good playing machine.
I agree with Matt. I love Baywatch.
Mary Shelly's Frankenstein. It has a lot of the same shots as Tron, sort of mirror image-like. And some funny calls. And the monster throws the balls at the freaking playfield glass! I don't know why people never mention this one, is it just that nobody's played it?
Quoted from Erik:We've played it, I just don't think we'd say it's the best in that price range
Yeah, I spose it's subject to tastes and I haven't played that many in that price range. But I think it's a ton of fun.
Bram Stoker's Dracula, Jurassic Park, Demolition Man, Terminator 2, Tales From The Crypt, High Speed 2, Congo, The Flintstones, Whirlwind, Revenge From Mars, Black Rose, Who Dunnit, and The Shadow.
