The Announcement
"Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,

The response to all models of our AC/DC pinball machine has been
overwhelming. This is a great game with a great title, great music and
great art, executed by 2 great designers - Steve Ritchie and Lyman
Sheats. I have attached some pictures of the AC/DC Limited Edition and
Premium models, which I know you will agree are absolutely stunning.
The first photo shows all three of these versions, with Let There Be
Rock LE on the left, Premium in the center and Back in Black LE on the
right. The playfield photos represent all 3 of these versions, as the
playfield is the same in each.

We have just completed production of our first batch of AC/DC Pro
games. We started production of AC/DC Limited Edition and Premium
models this week. As is normal practice, we are starting with Export
models of the LE and Premium models. We will make more AC/DC Pro over
the next months, breaking into the LE and Premium production
periodically. We are working with our suppliers to increase our
production rate. At the current production rate, it will be late April
before we fill all of our current orders. All of our LE models are
sold. We will make some Premium and Pro's available for new orders
during this production run.

We are sold out of Big Buck Hunter, Avatar, The Rolling Stones, Tron
Pro, and Transformers Pro. We are accepting orders for these models in
order to schedule future production. We are nearly sold out of
Transformers LE Combo, which will end the LE run for this title.

We thank you in advance for your patience.

Best regards,

Gary

Lol, I havnt heard anything that makes me think that.. I think Honda is pulling your chains

Got your self a Pro Eh?

First Pic is up! top of the post

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.

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

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!

Ice cold.

Very Very Well.. Its been doing very well in the USA and Even better over seas!

I cannot confirm nor Deny that.. But I can Say that Docscott was one of the ones who got an email from me today!

Now where are the pictures!!! Common Stern!

Sorry... I was told by Gary it was coming within 2 hours, Otherwise I would have waited until tomorrow.

More pics are up! see first post

Got the announcement too!

Ok, First post has been updated with the announcement and pics, including pics not included at this time in the public release! Man that playfield looks SICK!

Lol thats already up on first post.

They just sent me an email and said they have updated the website to include the LE and Prem Models with a few more pics. I can't wait to try one

Opps you beat me to it!

I dont see moving band on the Features list.

Maybe animated using lighting?

Gexchange said:Maybe animated using lighting?
I don't think so. Steve specifically said that the drummers sticks would move and Angus does the duck walk across the stage.

You are right Look Close at this pict.. you will see they move and thats not just a plastic

I have a pro on my showroom floor but my camera dosnt do video, and my phone the sound wont be that good

Sounds about right.. My price beat that =) Then again my price beat everyone, I'm told by 3-4 people.

Your best bet at this point would be to get a premium, we can get more of those so its not a risk selling you one.. Hit me up if you want a price, I'm sold out of LTBR's and only have 4 BIBLE's left of my entire order.
