so tired of hearing people call into question Stern build quality.
I'm a pinball tech and have been for 16 years and current model sterns are great. Just as solid as B/W with fewer board problems. Just like any tech, there's things that go bad, but most of the time a NIB Stern is put the balls in and play - ready to go.
If I were a MMR owner, I would feel refreshed that someone that builds pinballs all day everyday and has for years will be assembling my game rather than some new guys just hired a few months ago
