Have you played Lethal Weapon 3?  I see them for sale from time to time, but have never played one.

Good luck with your search.

Do yourself a favor and widen your search.  That is the same short list everyone has.  That's why the prices on those games are so high.  It's not necessarily because of quality.  They are strong games, yes, but since they are also high demand games the prices are higher than they otherwise would be.  There are plenty of games nearly as good at half those prices or less.

If you're looking in that price range I'd look at the late pre-DMD Bally/Williams offerings. Stuff like Bride of Pinbot, F-14 Tomcat, Funhouse, Earthshaker, Taxi, and Whirlwind are all very fun games that are better than the budget DMD offerings. DMD games seem to demand a premium that many shouldn't. And this is coming from someone who typically prefers DMD games...
