So, what do you think?



Could it be true? Something revolutionary? They have looked at JJ prices and Magic Girl?



But 400 at this price? Surely not

 

[Paul]

Some sad **** will pay it. I guess the licence wasn't cheap, so they'll have to recoup it somehow. I'd be interested to see how many they DIDNT sell at that price.. Yes i know it's allegedly for the LE, however i'm getting to think that, since a large chunk of their market is the home market, and because of the recession that has "recently" hit the USA (

, it'll be out-pricing itself.

Mental!! î„…

 

[Sgt GrizZ]

Hmmm. That had better be some heck of a pinball at that price.



May well still sell, but I don't think the theme has that same near universal appeal that Tron did amongst pinheads.

 

[ronsplooter]

For that kind of money I'd want the pin to transform into a robot

 

[teachp8]

... and then mow the lawn?

 

[ronsplooter]

yep, and clean the house, wash the car, cook my dinner etc etc

 

[replicas]

This hobby is getting a little to expensive.

[Phil Dixon]

[jonathan]

Jacks got a 26' Lcd and his pin is $6500!



Gary is losing the plot im afraid
