Well I think that price is after he has done all his work.  I'm saying sometimes I think you can purchase machines from him - unshopped - or whatever his version of unshopped is for WAY less than his restored machines go for.  Might be worth an e-mail or phone call.

AFM is very cool but hella expensive for the price.

Flake is right , TC does sell machines unshopped. They are not unshopped like other sellers tho, they are usually in ridiculous good condition to boot becuase it seems he doesnt want to really polish terds.

IMO the reason he does that from what I understand is his "time/effort ROI" involved on certain titles are not worth it to him because he has better irons in the fire at the moment.............again I cannot speak for him but dude thats got to be it.

As for AFM, thats a hot title worth his time as it will fetch $9k once clearcoated but you can always ask him if he wants to part with one unrestored of course.

Damn you & your MB, cool cereal painting & now a damn AFM.

I hope you get a speeding ticket soon  >:D

I don't have the damn thing yet!

I have played AFM quite a bit both in the arcade and on VP Mame. While I don't enjoy it sometime as much as ST:TNG, I totally love the theme which I can't stand Star Trek! Sorry to any Trekkies out there.  :tool: Just bustin'!

I have an addiction, I need to feed that addiction and another pinball is going to be the only way!

Guess I'm a  :tool:. hehehehehehe

ps. I need to make some prints of that damn Cereal Painting, so many people have asked.  Need to get ---my bottom--- to Staples. >:D

STTNG is a great pinball! As you know I have one (my only one so far) but it is FUN!!!
It sounds great, has tons to do on the playfield and is very challenging...certainly no walk in the park!

It's complicated to fix when things go wrong though (especially for me since I'm not used to working on pins) and I currently have it in shop for repairs I didn't want to do myself but the game is a blast!

If you don't like the theme though I wouldn't get it as the theme for me is one of the most important parts of the game! (OK there is Trekkie in my blood I will admit!)

Instead of AFM what about getting a Revenge from Mars?
Or back to your original plan of a Twilight Zone (I was ALWAYS into the series and would love to have one!)


Good luck on whichever you decide!

I want a poster of the cereal painting! :)
