Rob (robm) has done some of the best restoration work this forum has ever seen so I would bet my house that Robs Medi Evil Madness conversion will be nothing short of superb.
The amount of work to pull one of these conversions off is nothing short of massive. I take my hat off to anyone who even attempts it let alone does one that is the envy of any MM owner which I am sure Robs will be when his is finished.
Just for interest, I saw someone sell a original MM which had a really really bad Playfield for a pathetic sum of only 2 grand. It was about five or six years ago roughly and it was before replacement playfields were finally made available.
The new owner knew playfields were coming so in his mind he snapped up a bargain. I remember the seller saying anyone who would buy that machine with such a bad playfield must be nuts.
The MM came in a Euro container and was thrown in as a parts machine.
The seller got his 2 grand and the buyer got his bargain. Both were happy.
I got to see the MM later on when the new Playfield had gone in and the machine was like new again.
The reason the original playfield was so bad was that someone in Europe tried cleaning the playfield with some sort of solvent and it destroyed all the artwork.
The game hadn't had that much use. The cabinet and decals were like new and the hardware was great.
At 2 grand it will probably remain the worlds cheapest Medi Evil Madness despite a bad playfield.
The owner still has it and he must have picked up a 6 or 7 grand profit on paper overnight.
Right place at the right time.
