Looking at the TAF playfield, it was a nice clearcoat. I am going to see if I can find those touch ups, since Sparky would not tell me where they were. |

You might have some work with additional clear on the new MM pf's coming out. Lots of complaints on RGP wrt the clearcoat on MB and the first run of MM's appear to be no better.
150$ for minor repair of Wayno-goofs and a new clearcoat on bare playfields!!! Turn-around time of 2 weeks for NOS playfields!!! (not counting shipping). Actually, I will be honest, even Williams DiamondPlate clears don't impress me at all... lots of little defects. Sterns are even worse. I have seen many NOS pfs so far and a handfull have gotten my approval. I must be fussy... |

Good luck! There are 4 on it due to bubbling on the original clear. You might only be able to see one of them since the color match was difficult, but the other 3 there is no way in hell you will see them. I couldn't even see them with a magnifying glass, and I knew where to look!!! |

I picked up my playfields at Monkeybug's and they really look great- I'm not entirely certain where those clearcoat bubbles were any longer. I will definitely get Sparky to work on my next project. Tim |

If you are happy, I am happy!!!
What? Who?.... I thought you said I was the one who made you happy? Or was it not you who said, and I quote:
Goodicksa: to NEVER stop to make me laugh!!! ...
So this is how you roll? Bait n' switch, turn on a dime, saying whatever it takes to get what you want and to hell with the feeling of others! Well I'm not going to take it any longer, consider our friendship terminated! Now if you could please send me those Pinmame ROMS as promised we can conclude this nasty chapter in our lives. I've PM'd JD but he told me that he no longer deals and that you drove him out of the 'business'... Ha, bet you thought I forgot about that... Not me bucko, I'm got a mind like a steel trap. A great big, rusty, squeeky, out of date trap. |

Once upon a time, Wayne showed a MM whitewood. RGP asked him how did he get his hands on a whitewood. wayne replied, "it wasn't a whitewood but a new playfield he made in his shop." A month later when wayne announced he got the williams/bally rights, it made sense. That was five or six years ago.. wonder how long the rest of the game will take to make? |

What's this all about??!! Did you order a MM too without having the guts to say it publicly and do you know something I don't know?  I've been waiting 2 years for this game, I've always been told "another 2 to 3 months", and now it's been 2 years. I can't wait to have this game, I'll have a mint MM for a fraction of the price it's worth. |

I think 5 or 6 years is enough to make the rest of the game.  |

THE DREAM IS ALWAYS THE SAME [cue tangerine dream]. quand ca prendre cinq ans pour juste peinturer le bois.. j'espere l'electronique du wpc-95 aller une peut plus vite. my personal opinion is that stock market will be back above 13 000 by the time Wayne ships a working MM  |
