Picked up a twister last night for around $1400.. talked the guy down from 2250. Thought it was a decent deal. Topper worked and the only wear was the typical by the tornado on the playfield.

To be honest... I think the game is "meh" so far.. I only got 3 or 4 plays in on it, but it is just not as "exciting" as my T2. I would say it's marginally better than the Stargate it replaced so far. I hope that as I figure out wtf I am doing in the game that can help too :)

Stoked to finally be back up to 2 pins!

Congrats on your pickup.

It sounds like you came to the same opinion as I did. As a meteorologist, I would love one to go with my Whirlwind if I can get it on the very cheap, but I found the game play iffy at best. I found the playfield far two open and lacking objectives. As a compromise for now, I did come across an unpopulated playfield on the cheap, as I love the artwork, and am in the process of creating a shadow box that uses warm white LEDs and an arduino board to randomize a light sequencer behind all the inserts and have it run on 4 AAs.
 
Nice pick up. I played this at a mates house for a bit. The 13 ball multi ball was insane. I didn't mind to be honest. Solid enough player that if you decide to flip will probably hold its value at the price you payed.
 
Was that the one on CL? "Super Rare Twister Pinball"

Congrats on getting the price down.. Bummer it's not much fun.. Seems like you can at least get your money back if you sell it.

yeah, this was that one.. Honestly, only bought it since I know I could get the $$ back.
