I would love to own one of these but seems it many were produced due to heighway going under. 
Did we ever get a total count on machines made?

Quoted from Ilushka85:I now have my second one coming.
I’m jealous 
Quoted from NPO:You can still own one. That LE you own would be a nice downpayment to the right seller. Asking price is now at $11K for an Alien SE.
I dont own one, but I do keep track of the sales on this game original sticker price has nesrly doubled due to scarcity ($6400 when being produced).
Only see one up right now at 12.5k (ouch!)
If I found one reasonably I’d just buy an alien outright to add to my collection. I am keeping my POTC a long time!
Quoted from Ilushka85:This le is 11k i would grab it.

That’s 11k euros (12.5k dollars). And it’s in Europe. :p
Quoted from Ilushka85:Ahh totally ignored the euro symbol. My new one is coming from Europe. I would contact him and try to work a deal
Nah I’d just as soon buy the 12.5k one stateside. More than I want to spend on it though. I know it’s more valuable than original but I think I saw one sell recently around 11k in great condition.

Someday I’ll have this in my collection. It’s the only game right now that I would buy without having played one.

Quoted from Durzel:$750 shipped does not sound unreasonable to me, compared to other playfield prices?
Yea that's not special pricing. I'd rather wait for someone else to make replacement PFs too considering Mirco's business practices.
Quoted from Pale_Purple:What are those practices? Keep pinball woke...
Harassing other vendors on the site here with fake legal threats and other nonsense. There was a couple threads on it, I won't rehash it all here.

Quoted from Aurich:I'm sure I've posted this before, but this was my original LE backglass design that was done with 'approved' assets, which at the time I was told was the only way to do things. I guess Andrew didn't like it, and I said well, I dunno what else to do, you've locked me into a box with what I'm allowed to use, we're scraping the bottom of the barrel here, I've wrung all the blood from these stones I can. And at this point we're years in and I'm sick of his shit and spending all this unpaid time on the game. So that's when he went to Brian and had him redraw my design. Suddenly hand drawn art was kosher I guess, I dunno, fuck Andrew and his lies.
Anyways, then the call went to not have a non-LCD version, and this one never came out either, just the rework to fit the screen.

I think this looks awesome

Quoted from delt31:So I just reached the first mini wizard mode on the alien side - the one you dump the alien out of the ship..... When I reached it on my older game it really wasn't all there but this version.... Wow. So well done. Great integration with not only clips but the shots it asks you to do match what's going on. This is even better than jjp. Bravo.
On a side note, anyone else have their led strips dip a little in an area on the side lights? I tried glue but not a great solution. Any other good ideas?
You’re killing me. I cannot wait to own this game someday.

I hope someone remakes it. I wish I had this pin so bad. But the money holds me back for now. Someday...
Quoted from noitbe1:I speak for myself but once updaded last rev software, boards, pcb and some changes usb for instance, (i add caps and a new PS) the pin is pretty reliable. Never add any issue for months and the pin is played a lot.
There are still Aliens to buy but they are easier to find in Europe.
For the remake: if I remember well, the first talk start in around feb/march this year, it was supposed to be announced in may. There was some bets for this. Obviously nothing happened and then supposed to come later this year and then before end 2019 and then nothing (no date). Some people are positive about this with high level of infos. Good for them. Now if you want a pin, search for it and don’t prey for a hypothetical new release which could never happen or could be in years from now...
Believe me I’m slowly saving to buy an alien. There’s a guy selling one for $13k and it’s all the will power I have to not just throw the balance of what I don’t have on a credit card LOL.
