Quoted from blondetall:3. I want a rare machine. I haven't been buying machines forever to have a collection where I have equity built up so that I can sell one to fund others, or swap machines. I will never have the collection that others have, but at least I can have a rare one that they don't have.
^ THIS. Theme & comparatively low NIB price also. (I'm not wealthy. This will likely be the only NIB purchase I ever make... unless I hit a lottery. And I rarely play the lottery.)
Being a sys11 fan, I also like the somewhat simple layout. Deep ruleset will offset that anyway for longevity. I'm one of those oddballs that will walk right by a TZ or TSPP in a damn hurry to get to FT or DW.
If Predator kicks a$$ & everyone is scrambling to buy HUO down the road, so much the better if I ever want to sell or trade. In fact, I already have two local pinsiders calling dibs on this pin that hasn't even hit my doorstep. If it bombs, and mind you I don't think it will, I'll be able to see it coming & get out since I'm near the end of the production line. Stupid like a fox.
Kudos to Skit-B for getting my attention with their fresh approach to theme & business model. It's like they are making this pin just for me. "A game for Joe-six-pack, by Joe-six-pack."
