You have a bad case of FOMO my friend, a nice premium can clear this up for youReally? Didn’t know deposits were being taken.
Looks like I’ve missed the boat
If it’s Dwight and I dropped 14k on an LE, I would be worried, very worried.
That’s interesting, didn’t think anyone could do the mirror back glass on newer titles.You have a bad case of FOMO my friend, a nice premium can clear this up for you
Even a mirrored backglass can be made and for a few hundred quid if there’s a enough interest to do a run of 10 or so. There’s a deadpool pro artwork mirrored backglass being looked at currently which I’m down for as the premium/LE backglass is hideous!
Stern have officially lost the ****ing plot if they are asking 14k for their LEs now the upgrades from premium to LE, speakers, powder coat, mirrored backglass, flimsy plaque and COA that Gary’s monkey bubbles signs for him) are worth what £100/£200 tops in the quantity Stern gets it all in.
Yes mate, it’s done on the QT, I have had a quote done for a mirrored goldeneye black glass and as I said above a couple people on a Pinside discord are looking at doing a run of the deadpool pro translite but mirrored which will look awesome as the pro by far has the best artwork/translite.
Theme does nothing for me so probably not one I’ll buy but I’m still excited to see a new machine!The suspense…
The more I hear about the rumoured pricing the less excited I am, love a new pin but stern and electrocoin are simply taking the p*ss.The suspense…
To be fair part of it is the forex and they don't control that.
Except it probably pushes up the price of whatever you're selling to make room, which may not make it more cash than before, unless you're greedy and keeping everything!
Are you on drugs
Here is List Show prices on Games from this onwards
Pros are getting a higher increase than prems then? You’d think prems would go up more just because if they both went up the same percent their increase would be more. I’d prefer cheaper pros, more on prems but that cos I mostly get pros so entirely selfish
It’s been doing the rounds between the usual in the know guys on Pinside that the SLE/Anni version will have a different physical feature/playfield.
Yeah it’s a p•ss take, you can get all the physical differences between a prem and LE for a few hundred quid, even the art is sometimes available from places
Actually @CHRIS B PINBALLS, yes, yes I am. A lovely concoction of Morphine, Co codamol, Diazipan, pregablin..
F me Dave, watch out with that mix! I use co codamol day and diazipan at night when mine blows up but try not to overlap too much....
I’m sorry mate but I don’t think stern have lost the plot… it’s the customers that are buying this blind that are bonkers IMO. From a business point of view why wouldn’t you set your prices like this knowing there going to sell out?
Still reasonable if you put it up against what other manufacturers are offering and the price
Agree with you 100% it just feels like a **** take from Stern, but like you rightly said as long as they have 1000 LE buyers willing to continue buying blind without seeing a glimmer of the game or knowing who’s on art/code basically more than half the design team Stern will continue increasing prices every release and sneakily removing more and more little bits here and there in the process.
It absolutely is a ****take but it’s one the customer continue to accept. I don’t even think it should be an option to reserve a machine untill it’s been officially released to be honest but again just my opinion.
I've been in the hobby long enough to remember when you could get 2 NIB Pro's for that
