What order would you rate these 3 games? Are any of them any good? I don't have a lot of time in on any of them.

What are the values in the 2008 guide book? And what are the "Realistic" Values??

shadow












golden eye
dirty harry

Shadow!

DH is ok but from a resell value good luck, that game gets no love so if you want one expect to hold on to it for a while

I've never even seen a Goldeneye

Quoted from pins only

Shadow
Baywatch
Popeye
golden eye
dirty harry



Just kidding.  Actually Never played any of them .. but if given the choice I would choose Shadow

Like Mr Hide said. Shadow by a laaaaaaarrrrrge margin. Then Golden Eye (plays alot like T2 if I recall correctly) and then Dirty Harry. DH is a b**** to sell. I think Golden Eye would be easier to sell.

Cann't help you with book value. I can give you an educated guess. Assuming all in nice shape:

Shadow $2K
Golden Eye $1,500 maybe $1,800 if you're lucky.
DH in the Eastern part of the country you'll be lucky to get $1,500. It just gets no love, but you are in the town with silly money. People have more cash than brains right now, so you could probably increase all my prices by 20%.

wow,

popeye was higher then golden eye and dirty harry

nice

Eric

My only value to the MAACA threads follows, 2007 price guides

Shadow $1700
Baywatch $1450
Dirty Harry $1500
Golden Eye $1725
Popeye $1425

So by "price guide value" its:
Golden Eye
Shado
Dirty Harry
Baywatch
Popeye

Shadow can't be put in the same list as the rest of these.

Problem is finding someone willing to part with one.

pins only dh is the way..... way the best, by all time.

i know in a basement not far away,there maybe  a dh  for sale.you might have to blow the dust off .

the shadow will stay for now.
goldeneye.fun....sold it.now i have the key chain.(for sell).     back to pins,beers, and all

i have a popeye available... even comes with another spare playfield?

Eric

So, I figured Shadow would win this one, but it seems like it rates way higher than the others. Any ideas why it doesn't have the value of many other games that rate lower. It can't be all because of Alec Baldwin

I never thought about Goldeneye playing like T2, but I can see that, Pretty similar playfield layout, although I think Goldeneye has more Multiballs and modes.

Dirty Harry, I just don't know why this game would be so hard to sell, The theme alone should sell this game! The fact they made 5 Movies for Dirty Harry thzt came out in the 70's and 80's should fit right into the largest selection of players. Is the game that bad? I kind of like the side art and the Backglass, the buildings give it a pretty cool looking playfield. Surprises me!

Dave

Theme kills Shadow.

Horrible movie, horrible actor on the backglass, the theme is crap.  But the play is outstanding, the battlefield is one of the most unique toys you will find on a game.  Really cool lock action sequence, decent modes, a fun video mode and good hard multiballs are what makes it a winner.  

But the theme is a killer, I find allot of the quotes in the game absolutley histarical even though they are not meant to be funny, they are supposed to be dramatic, quotes like:

"The Sun is shinning, but the ice is slippery"

or

"I'm not affraid of you" to which Alec replies "But I am"

They have to be some of the lamest quotes ever to grace pinball, but if you can get over the theme then you are going to get yourself one really great playing pin.  Also the other side of the coin is if you buy it and don't like it you won't have a problem selling it at all.  Ask Glen how fast his Shadow sold when he put it up for sale.
