Very fascinating thread! We have an MMr at work and there is an arcade close by with an original MM. I have to say, both play a little differently no doubt because the original is a lot more worn in, and even the flippers were not adjusted the same on both machines.

At Replay, they had numerous Funhouse pins. All of them played a little different based on playfield/mylar wear, flipper adjustment, etc. I think you would be very hard pressed (except for remakes coming off the floor) to find pins that play the same.

Quoted from cooked71:

What a load of cr*p.

Indeed! We should all be grateful though, what an awesome time to be in the hobby. The fact that there are both original and remake options for two (and soon to be more!) highly sought after classics means more options and availability!
