I never thought I'd do this but a machine has become available which has been on my wish list for some time so I am selling my fully restored Lord of the rings.

I created a shop log during the restoration process which can be seen here:

http://www.pinballinfo.com/community/threads/lord-of-the-rings-full-restoration.18692/

I have carried out the following during the restoration process:

Playfield
  • Fitted a brand new US spec playfield (this has been additionally clear coated prior to fitting)
  • The new playfield is the more desirable version without the skill post holes which the UK version has
  • Ramps have been 24ct gold plated
  • Brand new plastic set fitted
  • Everything stripped, polished, replaced as necessary
  • Pop bumpers fully re-built (including new coils)
  • wiring loom, coils and all other underside playfield mechanisms etc cleaned and polished
  • Flippers re-built with all new parts
  • Full new premium rubber set fitted
  • Ultra bright non-ghosting LEDs fitted - full set
  • Improved quality characters fitted (from same manufacturer as originals so fit the theme and style perfectly but do away with the requirement to fit them with ugly cable ties)

Cabinet
  • Fully stripped down to bare wood, prepped to glass like finish and brand new full decal set fitted
  • Interior finished in metallic gold with 'One ring...' inscription on inside

This machine is the closest you will find to a brand new LOTR, it looks better than when it was new (in my biased opinion!!!).

I am asking £5,000.00 for the machine
 
Wow, that didn't take long. Not surprising really as it really is a BEAUTY! Very sexy playfield and one of the best clear coat jobs I've ever seen. Super stupid fast and very well lit, as all other LOTRs I've played and really gloomy. Not this one! So good I actually started to like it whereas before I thought LOTR was awful. Someone's going to be a happy bunny!
