Yes! ...but again, you actually bought Black rose AND dirty harry
And your point being???
As I've posted before, DH is NOT that bad... it has some great shots, nice mods and different multiballs to boot! OK, OK...the Backglass is fugly and his voice ain't the most 'interesting'...
As for Black Rose, yet another machine that is simple, fun, and frustrating as hell...
The last 3 visits I've had at my place of 'non-pin people', Black Rose was BY FAR the most played machine...even my sister-in-law played a full 90+ minutes NON-STOP on that machine...it's too bad the BSD was found earlier than expected and that I had to sell one (out of room)...
My $0.02

Current 'working' lineup: ( 2 ) Flipper Football, The Shadow
Gone but not forgotten: ( 22 ) City Slicker, Dirty Harry, CFTBL, Big Shot, Big Guns, Black Rose, Judge Dredd, Indianapolis 500, Big Game, BS: Dracula x 2, Beat the Clock, Fire!, F-14 Tomcat, Getaway, Breakshot, Cheetah, Meteor, El Dorado, Nitro Ground Shaker, Chexx Hockey, Slugfest
and btw, this funhouse is the perfect candidate for a new playfield ... oh and new decals too.
and what was I saying about blue targets just yesterday ?!
Hmmm I don't think a 2000$ FH is a candidate for 700$ playfield or anything else NOS... Unless you enjoy throwing money out the window.
The fact that I also think FH sucks big time probably doesn't help I find it butt ugly and uninspiring - especially with alpha-numeric displays. I find that Roadshow was a better use of "talking heads".

Gee. Wasn't it recently that you also didn't "get it" when it came to TZ?
I completely disagree. Super fun game once you get reasonably good at it IMHO.

EXACTLY!!
OK OK so since I got it, I now "get it" but in all honesty I don't think it'll be a keeper. It'll probably end up as trade bait for Allentown. Once I clean it up real nice I may change my mind - who knows... Lot's of time 'til A'town anyway... Wish I wasn't broke.. I'd LOVE to have a funny pin - like MM, AFM, MB, etc..

Now you are talkin my language. If I had limited space and those were the three other options to have, I still don't know if I could part with TZ. I just admire this machine overall.
FH needs to have the same chance. Trust me, I made the mistake of passing this machine over before.
