Comments:1) Legs very commonly got switched due to ignorance/availability/?. Be careful in using existing legs to make your decision in the replacement style! 2) Legs choice are sometimes dictated by Basement/GameRoom headroom or size of Pinball player. 3) Legs are produced with care, however plating is good commercial quality or better. Some tooling marks are unavoidable. Legs are packed in poly sleeving directly after plating to protect them from handling/shipping damage.
