The Stern guy on the live factory floor tour all but said they are doing another AC/DC run. So everyone can quit paying ridiculous prices for used ones. Good News!

Quoted from CrazyLevi:Interesting if true. I'll take a pro!
Why doesn't anybody like the pro?
I think it's Angus's face. The lower playfield on the Premium isn't worth the upgrade. Actually, I tried to avoid it.
The Pro is solid.

How far into the video?
Quoted from terrapinmark:Just sold my premium for $7200. Good thing the check has been cashed
I guarantee a new premium would cost more than that....

I wouldn't be to worried, stern pretty much charges that for premiums now.
I watched that whole thing and didn't hear anything AC/DC but I also don't hear well. Were they playing a song in the background or something?
Quoted from libtech:Dd art would be awsome on this game
I heard he's doing Star Wars instead.

The Stern guy ........ now we are taking inside manufacturing info from the janitor seriously. I wouldn't hold my breath without the license.
Quoted from hoby1:........ now we are taking inside manufacturing info from the janitor seriously.
Well I hear he's also in charge of quality control so there is that.
Quoted from CrazyLevi:Why doesn't anybody like the pro?
Because the Angus face looks like a giant decal covering up a missing feature.
I had heard the only thing holding up rerun was royalty negotiations. Question is would they pony up to kiss rate, thats the only hurtle imo. Being another run would outsell kiss its a no brainer to me. Add to that the royalty cost is directly added to the bump up in price passed along to the consumer and its another winner for $tern.
It makes me happy to know that all the older Sterns I own or have owned have been the subject of VE rumors. Just means that I have chosen wisely!

I wonder if their deal for AC/DC on the Pinball Arcade app included some language that would allow for a physical re-release if Stern wanted to do it.

Too many damn standup targets.
THis would be really tempting if they do it. I really miss my premium....although it would cost me more to get one now than what I sold mine for....and probably won't have powdercoated armor or anything.
I heard from a distributor that it is not happening again.
Who knows who is correct? Im never selling mine.
EEr, according to my cipher'n it's April 3rd, not the first. My wife already got me right when I woke up on the 1st.
So the question becomes when Axl's face replaces Angus, will it be Appetite era Axl or current.
I vote vault!!
Quoted from Gov:THis would be really tempting if they do it. I really miss my premium....although it would cost me more to get one now than what I sold mine for....and probably won't have powdercoated armor or anything.
Miss mine too.....damn, so many choices coming up.
Every time I think of selling my premium I play a game and then say......yea its never going anywhere
I can see me getting tired of it at some point... not sure when but I'm sure it'll happen... wife likes it, kids like it, no telling. Gorilla glued to the floor at this point ... maybe when they find something to remove gorilla glue...
Ive had it 3 separate times already and would buy it again. Premium please. Pro is no slouch either.

Pro is GREAT, super fast and no lower PF
Quoted from Rarehero:Because the Angus face looks like a giant decal covering up a missing feature.
Don't bother me none!
Every AC/DC fan knows that's an absolutely iconic image from the highway to hell over.
AC/DC has to be the next Vault because I heard that Kevin Bacon was mentioned at the Stern factory today.
And, you know, Kevin Bacon was in Planes, Trains, and Automobiles with Nicholas Wyman, who starred with Angus Young in the movie Private Parts.
If that doesn't solidify it, nothing will.
Yeah... they're doing another run... and they're gonna charge $10k. The result? The market is going to get pushed higher
