Godzilla.
Trying to understand how cheap a premium was at launch versus this ****ing madness now.
GZ premium was 10k
I think it was either 9k or 9.5k I think more on the 9.5k at launch not 100 percent but around that for premium
I’d paid 10 wasn’t sure if that was launch price though
I ordered at launch, it was 10k.
When bond came out at 8 and 11, it didn’t put me off too much it’s only since the exchange rate knackered it up and they went up 600 and 700 respectively I thought enoughs enough
I don't blame you for pulling out. Honestly **** paying these prices. It's just madness now.
Just wait until the exchange rate corrects ( could be a while! ). Saying that I've only ever seen prices go up with ex rate, never down ( I can't remember them going down anyway ).
If people pay I'd be amazed if the price comes down as much as it should.
I'm also not sure the pound will recover in the short term. I'm expecting five to ten years before we see 1.4+. Too many wrong decisions made.
You'd need to be minted* to spend an 8 an a half grand on a Pro.

If you buy now and the GBP gets strong again you will lose quite a bit on resale

That depends if the exchange rate is passed on to the customer or used as another mechanism to increase profit.
last time the dollar killed the £ (and DM and yen etc) in 1985 the us govt got worried - this resulted in the plaza accord. 86 or 87 if i remember correctly. this is where the yanks weakened their currency deliberately. roll on plaza 2 !!!!
Exactly how it should be
Pinball Heaven are being very fair to the customer and yet still run the risk of disappointing customers who do not think they should pay the extra if it occurs.
Thid isn’t the way most sellers run a business.
I can understand why others will bake in a price increase to cover any potential price fluctuations.

I'm thinking there will be a rally to 1.20. If it breaks thru the resistance it's onwards and upwards. Bank of England just QE'd to the tune of £60billion.
Gary Stern is expected at 2pm at the BFI London where there are 2 different games available.
I have photos and will post later.

Yes, their code was updated on Wednesday.
Any new video since the code was updated?
I played it for around three hours with the new code and videoed most of it, but I may not get clearance to release the recording. Fingers-crossed though.
(Please don't anybody ask for a 'private' copy. If I can share it, I'll post it publicly. If not, it goes nowhere.)
I also got some nicer in-game pictures which I do hope to be able to publish.
Had to do a double-take. A man with no face or a man with 2 heads

I just dunno ref Bond on the stick and the tank target.. the plastic sculpt and mech just gets poorer the more I check footage. Dare I say, just looks cheap.
Not sure if it drops on the tank target automatically or you hit the action button.
If it’s the latter, it’s hardly gonna miss.
I like to get an unbiased view on things.
The Mrs just said the “bond stick thingy looks crap” then walked away…
The BM66 VUK is similarly to the DB5 VUK
I really like the Bird one ball lock though.
Still I think it will do well on theme alone.
Looking forward to some proper footage and sounds.

Already found and ordered the underwater fight, bit of blue tinted plastic and a bouncy wire mount and I've saved a packet. Assuming the playfield is cut the same on both but it's a 15 quid gamble I'm happy to take!
