These are two games that I'll own someday.
I play the hell out of a Fish Tales when I see one on location (even when beaten up).
I haven't played High Speed 2 as much and when in good condition I enjoy it (dig S. Ritchie games),
when it is in bad condition or not working right I didn't enjoy it too much at all.

I find FTs for about $1500 and HS2s for about $1200.

I'll be checking out a HS2 for $1100 next week (talk down to $1000)
and a FT possibly for $1400 (talk down to $1200).
So far my strategy is to get the best quality of these for
the best price in a first come first serve basis.

This may make next week difficult.
I only really car about the playfield and having a functional topper on these.
If the sides are faded I'm not too annoyed.

I'll be checking out HS2 on Friday before work. The guys needs money as he is getting divorced so...

Well I look @ a HS2 tomorrow, TBD if I drive home with it.

Well the dealer flaked on me the last day that I was working in the Miami area.
I don't plan on being down there any time soon either...

I found an excellent FT locally for $1500 with almost no fade on cabinet, fully working,
great playfield and a happy fish on top. Once my expense checks come in from work
It'll be in the garage next to Sky Jump.

I have a few options for decorations around the machine too.
Old christmas lights shaped like blue whales
and
Broken outboard boat motors!

I came to realize that I wanted HS2 basically because I wanted another Steve Ritchie game.
No Fear is mega fun but I'll just get a Spider-Man someday as my 2nd SR game.

I just played some HS2 in Fairfax VA @ John's Place and played La Grange on the jukebox while shifting gears.

Thanks for the participation.
I found a good conditioned Fish Tales in Jacksonville FL with a great cabinet with just a slight fade!
It was owned by me pinball tech's sister's boyfriend haha rad!
After 3 new balls and some leveling it is rock'n!
Its a little quick for my dad and mom but they'll get a hang of it.
So far it's the last pin that i'll be buying for my dad's arcade garage.
