These r the first playfields I have ever bought.

I am buying a whirlwind for a resto I am currently undertaking. I'm buying a TAF as this is a grail game for me so when I eventually buy one I will want it looking as good as possible. It may be 2-5 years before I buy one. By then I am sure I won't be able to get a new playfield  then, other than paying way over the odds if one does come up for sale. I was also under the impression it would be difficult to ever do any other run of these due to licensing issues with Raul Julia's estate.

But I hear wat u r saying, it seems some people buy them just to sit on for years with no real intention of ever using it.
