I own a Tron Pro and like the machine, don't get me wrong, but certainly agree the play-field is not the same quality as some my williams machines.. The coating seems weaker (than something 20 years old) i.e where you screw in the outlane posts, they leave a decent dint in the play-field like it is soft, at least much softer than my Williams machines...

I am very interested to see how one of these playfields holds up over 20 years to say dimpling and the insert edges?

The printing is kind of crappy on play-field and cabinet too.. They are cutting some corners and are not cheap machines (gladly I bought mine SH not new), so it is hard to justify cutting corners to get the price down.. But if I paid around $9k for an LE with that print quality on the decals and play-field I would say that is a joke too..



I am not saying I don't like the machine, don't get me wrong, but the quality is reduced in some ways despite the high(ish) prices, I am glad JJP and others are coming up as I think increased competition (if it takes off) will fix the laziness that results from being the only choice..
