I have on good authority that there might be another run of El Dorado playfields by my buddy Wade. Lets get a list going of people that would be interested in a new playfield.

Quoted from jrpinball:Ok. Where's the official list, and how many takers so far? Put me down for one.
Wade has the official list for non-pinsiders. I guess this is the "official" Pinside list being that Wade doesn't do Pinside.
Everyone-
Things seem to be moving fast with Wade and he needs info from those wanting a El Dorado playfield. Please PM me with your email address and phone number so I can give that info to Wade and he can contact you about time frame, payment, shipping etc. This is only for this Pinside thread. If you have contacted Wade directly and was put on his non-Pinside list, then I dont need your info.
Thanks everyone-

Hello all- If you didnt receive a email from Wade talking about El Dorado, here it is:
Hello everyone, it's Wade and this is the official announcement for El Dorado.
I'm in the process of sealing the blanks now and I need to know if you are still committed to the project. This title has been produced once before. The art is finished and it has been previously approved. I will begin printing next week.
Important, because of the rather large number of people on the list who never followed through on the last playfield, and because of my
increased costs in materials, I will only make a batch based on the number of people who pay deposits. I completely understand if this is a deal
breaker for you.
If you are interested and able, I am now asking for a deposit here at this same yahoo address by paypal.
[email protected]
Please do not send payment to any other email address as some people have accidentally done in the past. I will not receive it and you will not
get your money back. I will acknowledge your deposit and amount in a separate email.
If you prefer, you can mail a check to
Wade Krause
1778 N Fowler Ave
Clovis CA 93619
ph is 559-298-6236
The price will be 720 shipped, 650 without shipping. If you are able, you can pick the board up in person or I can deliver to Pin a Go Go (if they are done) and you will save the shipping.
Other upcoming titles are Strange World (the blanks are made and art is finished), Surf Champ, Sing Along, Cross Town.
Thank you,
Wade
Quoted from desertT1:Too late to get on the list?
I dont think so, shoot him a message to be put on the list
Quoted from Jigs:Wasn't Wade's last playfield the re-run of Fast Draw?
Yes it was. He did Abra Ca Dabra, Jack’s Open and Fast/Quick Draw all around the same time. FD/QD was a rerun and probably won’t be run ever again….according to Wade

Quoted from Electrocute:I think this is the third run, probably will get one this time.
This is the 2nd run of El Dorado. He also did 1 run of Gold Strike

Quoted from Beatnik-Filmstar:I'm already operating under the assumption that if he doesn't specifically point out the "flaw" that I'd likely not even notice. I'll jump at the chance if he has one. Just a waiting game / fingers crossed.
Ive stated this before that Wade's "seconds" are as good or better than other companies "Firsts". Meaning the inclusions are very minor, usually and he is up front in describing why it is considered a 2nd. Wade is vey picky. I got one of the last remaining Sky Jumps that he didn't want to sell because there was a slight smudge on a black line what was covered by a post. But, Wade has been highly scrutinized in the past by overly picky collectors (in my opinion). So as a rule Wade has full disclosure of any issues and sends out a perfect product.
***This is just my opinion and take on it. I am in no way speaking for Wade. He is just a good friend of mine and I speak with him on a regular basis. One of the best humans I have ever met.****
So if he has any seconds that are not spoken for, jump on it...you wont be disappointed.

Quoted from jbovenzi:Does anyone have an update from him please?
They turned out great and are shipping. Check with Wade if you want one and/or if you were on the list
Quoted from jrpinball:And it's a "repo", not a "repro", so he must work for a repossession company.
HAHAHAHA!!!
