Pinball - Buy Older Classic Or Newer Model
WareWolF:
I would rather spend $2000 on 3-4 70-80's classic's than any new DMD pin.
That way if you get bored of one game you can play the others.

The theme is great, the sound is great, the DMD is above average, the playfield is layed out well. If I had to guess, the majority of people give it a thumbs down due to the non-family friendliness of it.

IMO the theme sucks, the sound is annoying, I'm not a fan of DMD games, and the playfield has a freakin' toilet on it.
Toilet on the playfield = no buy for me. Austin Powers gets a major thumbs down from me for all the same reasons.

I played an Austin Powers...that is a HORRIBLE pin.

I think that the WPC-S series of Williams games is just about the boat anchor of DMD titles, with the exception of World Cup Soccer.
Anyway, if you like Who Dunnit, then great for you. But when you see a lot of super nice examples of a title, particularly a low production one, selling for $1200-1500, it should really give you some insight into popular opinion.
I have yet to see a single Who Dunnit that wasn't nearly cosmetically perfect.
And, objectively, it's not a title that plays anything like most traditional machines (and I think it'd be a poor choice for a single game in a home environment)

To each his own. That is the beauty of pinball- there is something for everyone.

You'll be hard pressed to find 3-4 of those in good shape for $2000. 3, maybe, but not the real players.
JeepMonkey:
I see that locally there is a 2002 Playboy pin for sale on ebay. With four hours left it is only at $1500. I thought this sounded very cheap. It appears to be in good shape.
Does this pin play worth a damn or is it purely a cool looking / theme only pin?
