For me it would go like this: TZ, AFM, JD, RS.
Also depending on if you have specific leads on these four games, condition would play a role too. ie; if JD was in mint condition and going for a good price, I may take it over a trashed TZ, because there are alot of TZ's out there, and eventually a nice one will come up.

Even though I am not a huge fan of AFM, I agree completely with Ace Frehley. (that's shock_me if you're too young to know what I am talking about!!)
I also agree with d'mouse, money and condition are also factors to consider.
We are "Twins" shock_me!!
I call 'Danny De Vito'..!
His Limoncello is delicious! 
You can have the illegitimate ten-fourteen year old...
If you don't like that pairing shock_me...
There is always the Weasley twins! (For J! 
)
Just don't go dying on me- O.K..!

AFM easy number 1 choice out of those options in my opinion. Love the humor, flow, and speed of the game. Such a sweet pin.
Quoted from PinWiz17:Why only one I would buy TZ,JD, and RS for the price you would pay for an AFM you could buy the others and have three pins instead of one. More pins the better i say
Can't argue with this logic!
I gotta say. This group is extremely active these days on pinball acquisitions. I love it! And not small titles either. Great choices have been made recently.
Rock on people!
i'd get attack from mars. a classic, with all the great shots. road show? no way, that wide body game is garbage (personally i think). then twilight (if you can a good deal), or judge. stay away from road show.
Quoted from Ballsofsteel:Road Show? no way, that wide body game is garbage (personally i think).
I've yet to play Road Show, but I can't imagine it's that bad being a Pat Lawlor design. I can't recall playing a game of his that I absolutely hated. Even games that aren't close to being in the top 100 like CSI, Monopoly or even Rollercoaster Tycoon are still sort of fun. Is RS worse than these?
Quoted from gweempose:Is RS worse than these?
Not by a long shot gweempose!
RS trumps those by a "country mile" it is a fun pin to play. The theme for some reason just polarizes alot of people into a love/hate kind of thing...
Try one for yourself at the next convention you visit!
AFM would be my choice and I think it might be a low maintenance machine too. Easy to clean playfield compared to some of the others. I played this game at Shorty's in Seattle I was hooked. The lady the alien is holding on the backglass was an employee that worked for Williams/Bally.
