Not straight up. A TAF as you describe is worth more then an SM

No taf is worth way more

Definitely keep the TAF. HUO Spider-Man is an easy find. You can't say the same for TAF.

TAF being the best selling pin of all-time should be enough to tell you most people would rather have it then a lot of other pins. If I ever had TAF pin as you described, i would be buried with it. If I wanted an SM i would have to add it to go along side it. Same is true for a lot of B/W 90's classics like MM, CV, TOM etc..

Spiderman

TAF worth more, SM more fun to play

SM x 2

SM is a better game with more staying power. I get tired of TAF really fast every time one comes through here.

I have both and love SM. But, my TAF will never leave.

HUO TAF = $7K SM = $5.5K

Does the trade have to be straight up? Will the Spider-Man guy give you some cash difference? As some have said, it's not a 1 to 1 value deal.

Had both. Spent more time with SM

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooppppppppppppooooopppppppppppppe

If you've had enough of Addams go ahead. However, if you decide to reacquire an Addams in like condition, you may not be able to, or it will be much more expensive.

I had them both at the same time for a while, and Spidey commanded more of my attention. If I had to choose one of them today, I would pick Spidey for many personal reasons, including entertainment value and re-playability.

A HUO TAF is a gem that is pretty hard to come by because most people at the time didn't buy machines for personal use and to find one today with appropriate documentation is near impossible... SM was produced at a time when many people did buy for personal use and a lot held onto their documents... If you always want to have TAF in your collection and can prove that your machine is in fact HUO, I wouldn't let it go...

As hard as it is, if your interested in the SM, sell the AF, just understand you will probably never get one back in that condition again... but having only one pin, you probably have done everything you can do on it..

Toss a blanket over it for a day and pretend it is gone.. see how you feel about it not being there anymore..

Nope.

No way!

NEVER ,I had a HUO addams since day one and let it go took ten years n 10,000 to replace. (Gold) work 2 jobs and hope for spiderman vault ed

For me this is an easy choice TAF. If you wanted a SM instead I'd get cash on the trade or sell the TAF and buy the SM with money still in the bank.

NO WAY!!!

TAF is WAY better!!!!

SM + $
Oh Yeah.

Absolutely not!

I would keep the Addams until you do not play pinball at all anymore, really need the cash, or Hate playing it. Not only do I think of them as a awesome toy but there a investment as well. This being said, Spider-Man hasn't been around as long, it's value is less, and they are easier to come by. I know it's a awesome looking spidy but look around for a addams that looks like yours. If you do find it, it's going to be expensive because a dealer has cleaned, refurb, replaced everything, and wants to much for his time. Lol I would just wait and save up to buy the Spidy, another will come along. At that time the spidy might be a little more money or need a little money put in to it but as more time goes by its going to be harder to find addams family parts, playfields and even mods. I agree with a post above cover it or move it out for awhile, if you can, and see how you feel about it. At the end of the day it your choice tho lol

Heck no. And I owned a Black Spider-man for years that I bought NIB. I really like the SM layout and code is really good. But I never enjoyed the SM movies and never got comfortable with the theme. A lot of people like it, but it will never be the classic machine that TAF is. Plus they aren't that hard to find and who knows if Stern will drop a Vault edition on you. You'll likely never find another HUO TAF.

SM >>>>>>> TAF

TAF >>>>>>>>>>>> SM

Got both. There's more to SM than TAF, but good TAF's don't come along very often.

If i had to keep one, nostalgia aside, i'd keep SM.

Are you insane? Keep the HUO TAF dude!

I'm just imagining the guy you are dealing with chomping off half his hand reading this, hoping nothing sways you to keep it... "shut up guys, shut up guys..."

Still would not sell an HUO TAF to get funds for any type of SM. If I had an HUO TAF, I wouldn't sell it to get ANY pin unless I just didn't like to play TAF any longer.

No

Gotta say, It will be very difficult to replace the TAF in that condition. I believe there are many HUO SM out there. If possible, save for awhile and pick up SM down the road...prostitution is always a option.

I would sell TAF in a heartbeat...but then I personally would probably never own an TAF in the first place as I just don't care for the game. SM on the other hand is not leaving anytime soon! It took 4 of my restored games to get it in trade a few years ago, and I don't regret the trade. I have since customized my SM and purchased 1 of the games I traded back from the friend I traded them to, and have purchased another 1 of each of the others that I traded, just don't have them restored and up in my house yet. Got PF done just not the cab on 1 and the other haven't got torn down yet...one of these days I will get to it! So for me this was an EASY answer!!

I couldn't do it. I'd love to have an SM, as SM is a great game, but I love TAF too. I know that I'd miss TAF even though I've played it so many times it's not funny, and I don't play it for long stretches, when I want to play it, it's nice to have it in the collection. It brings back so many good memories and it's fun all over again. Hard call. As you can tell, nostalgia makes up a great deal of my love for TAF. If someone lacks this nostalgia, or has pretty much played TAF out and never ever plays it, the decision would be easier to offload the TAF, but you should have money coming your way, as right now (and as stated previously), an HUO TAF is a pretty rare bird, and is worth more than an HUO SM. Good luck on whatever choice you make. They're both awesome games in my book.

HUO TAF for the win.

No!

Gollfingdad I have owned a NIB spider-Man and then a nicely restored STTNG. For me that was my pin similar to the TAF. Those were the two pins that were hardest to let go. Eventually I have sold or traded both. To be fair, I have a high end TZ that I haven't let go, but only keep it because my wife and kids like it. I would say get the game you want. Spider man is very fun and will bring you a few years of enjoyment at the very minimum.

The only caveat is that the market is down now and you will take a bigger loss on that game than you might have a few years ago.

Good luck and don't be afraid. It's just a game.

Let's not forget PPS might do TAF remake, if that happens we all get a huo TAF.

Yes, but if they do I'm sure it's years down the list. I don't think TAF ever gets remade for a host of reasons though.

Answer is easy. I'd keep your Spiderman and trade your TAF to me for every game I own. Straight Up!

Wise choice.
