I did hear a rumor and it is most likely just a rumor as the guy I heard it from has lost a little credibility lately .

Hey Hey, make it a Monkees and I'm buying. Hopefully, there would be a nice big mug of Davy in the middle of the playfield.

Shoot Stern an E-mail and tell them to Add the Newest Software to The Premium & LE 's before they Ship ..

Ha-ha-ha. "Newest software" is not equal to "finished software"! And I'm not spreading news, just have been expressing my disdain for Stern's practice of shipping games long before the software is finished. Do you really think that practice is acceptable, or a good thing for pinball? I don't.

Besides, not really news, but I have some inside scoop on pretty solid rumors that will *really* piss some people here off! LOL (and totally serious about this.)

And don't lump me in with other Stooges. I'm here solo to StevenP-roll people, dammit!

Lol thats where most of them come from.. They sent distro's emails sometimes a couple hours before posting.. But only sometimes. This time I was told I might get an email with a few in it, but to keep an eye on the facebook page because they would be doing the shoots today and posting today-Monday.

Welcome to the age of hurry up and wait. Almost every maker of hardware with a software back end does this because the technology allows them to. The maker has to meet a deadline and they distribute the hardware knowing that it buys them time to finish the software. This happens to iPhones, Driods, PS3, XBOX, PC Games, etc. Back in the day software had to be almost flawless because the means of updating was harder and sometimes non-existent.

Never said it was big news, and I dont know of any news thats going to piss off the LTBR buyers, nor is it going to stir up the industry. Its a not so exciting announcement and LONG awaited pics of the AC/DC LE and Prem.

Look closer at the pic I posted.. Its of a AC/DC BIBLE #1 with part of the back glass showing... Which looks great for the parts I can see.

This was only a teaser pic

There may be some less-than-positive developments for Stern in the near future. Kind of sad IMO.

AC/DC Prem- will be my 1st NIB and Most likely the last.. Alot of Stern's I Don't Care for but AC/DC , Man the Group is a Legend ,, Stern Better have this 1 Done Right !!! It Deserves to Be.. The Best Software added from Factory etc ..

And an Avenger's ( Super Hero's Pin ) Who Know's what that would be like . But some PinHead's might like it..

Resident Evil ,, Killer movie's , Awesome PS2 game , That Pin better have a 22'' LED B/Glass ( like WOZ ) for All the Animation & Effect's that the P/F will Lack.. Alot of Stop & Go i bet too , JMO ... Might be a Good Pin...

Wow guys! The announcement it nothing earth shattering, mostly will effect only AC/DC Buyers and only in a very mild way.

The Exciting part will the the long awaited pictures of the LE models! I am now hearing though it might be tomorrow or even Monday because they want to release all of the pics at once and they arnt even done shooting yet today. I am begging them to leak a couple though.

If you know someone who pre-ordered one from me, ask them as They all got an email from me today. But I can't publicly spill the beans, as Stern wants to tell you them selves.

Your money would be right.. It is not true! Man you guys all think this is a earth shattering news.. its not! The LE pics are the exciting part!

But if anyone wants to make bets about Stern closing down after AC/DC I got 10 Grand they arnt.

Sorry not even close.. Stern pinball is made in the USA and I hope it stays that way for a long long time!

They are one of the VERY few in the coin operated industry to be made in their factory by their employees!
