The more I watch your videos , the more I find we have in common on how we restore things . I always make sure the game is up and running and working properly before I break it down . My thinking is that if I have issues when I get it back together I can hone in more on what the problem might be . Instead of guessing if it’s an issue from before tear down . Nice to see you doing a EM . They are so cool , amazing what they did with all leaf switches back then .

I’m doing a CPR six million dollar man Playfield swap right now . And no joke , last night I was taking a number 11 blade meticulously scraping the clear out of the roll overs. It takes like 30-40 mins per roll over . Takes a ton of patience. Hit the nail on the head with your assessment. Side by side the colors and line work is pretty dam good , but the roll overs are a huge PITA .

I’m interested in how you rebuild a EM.

If the CPR had better printing it'd be a tougher decision. But as it stands, the NOS playfield is far more authentic.
