If the le is 8995 what's the pro? What's the difference? And how many le they making?
(Topic ID: 76928)
There is a matrix list but basically lighted ramps (like tron maybe?) Lighted art blades, special side/translite art and goodie bag, lighted beacons on top, powdercoated armour in the colour of your choice (blue black or green)
There are 500 LE's, one of em is coming my way, cant wait 
website says 9295cdn for pro and 8700 usd for le. Are these the real prices or what they are told to post as msrp?
There is a Transformers LE on Kijiji for $5800 Just outside of Edmonton....Well it says Wanted but description seems like selling
Quoted from dzoomer:He want to sell.
Probably gone in the first twenty minutes like every other pin recently listed on Kijii in Alberta.
Quoted from libtech:not really a great deal, last TFLE I saw sell sat for 6 months at low 5k's
Damn I thought that $5800 seemed like a good price.
Not a whole lot of love for Transformers, and the LE has a worse rep then the pro, universal hate for the LE upper PF
Also it would be a hard one to move later unless you got it for 4500 or something, and you should be able to get a better game for pretty much that price. eg there have been a few treks floating around for around the 6k mark.

Do you think Transformers pro is worth more than Transformers LE? How much do you think a HUO Transformers pro should go for in Canadian?
The pro is the true LE. And i own an LE. Was impossible to find a pro. The mini playfield gets alot of hate. The only thing you need to do is deactivate the lock so the balls never stay stuck up there for the ironhide mini playfield mode. Secondly i found the star scream mech to be more fun than i thought because of the randomness of either getting the ball from the ramp or it getting dumped in the left loop. The drop target in fron of megatron also adds another level if complexity. Ive own both the pro and the LE. While the pro tends to be a bit faster, after owning both i feel you get a tad more on the le. Both are winners in my book.

I had a TFLE and agree with this explanation. It got a lot of hate in the past, but it's a long game and has a lot of decent shots to it.
The disparity from east to west is kind of funny too. I've seen two transformers sell in the last 6 months over here in Ontario (one to Quebec) and one combo sold at 6200, and a red le sold for 6600.

That's cause the west coast is the best coast. And we're smarter and better looking too 
Looking on here machines that sold seemed to be asking 5700can for an le and 5000can for a pro, minus a bit for negotiating of course, so the price isnt at all out of line, everytime I see one it just seems to sit for months though.. However with the increase in price of popular/new pins in the last 6 months there is probably more interest in these less desireable titles since they are a bit more of a percived bargain.
GB Pro still up for grabs for $7300 with $500US of mods willing also to trade for these titles
Willing to trade for the following games
AC/DC Pro / LED Pro
Mustang Premium
Spiderman
Lord of the rings
Metallica Pro
Pirates of the Caribbean
Twilight Zone
Addams Family
Scared Stiff
White Water
Funhouse
The Shadow
X-Men LE
Road Show
Champion Pub
Game of Thrones (Is it possible to buy a Premium or LE Translite? I just can't stand the Pro Translite)
Quoted from extraballingtmc:Cuz it's not worth more than 5k
That's in Usd funds ?

My prediction is that it sells today at close to asking price for the exact reasons outlined above. If I liked the theme I would buy it as everything else I like is 10K or higher.

Cdn

Unless he moves off of $5500 it will be on here for a while I predict.
Quoted from shaub:Yes, I've played this particular machine quite a bit when it was on location at Rebellion Brewing Co. I considered buying it from him but, because he runs a business, the tax pushed it out of my price range.
Ohh, I was down in Regina for a course and hit up Rebellion and played that GB, had a great evening beer/pinball
Quoted from northerndude:Ohh, I was down in Regina for a course and hit up Rebellion and played that GB, had a great evening beer/pinball
Three machines on location seems to be the magic number for a planned evening ... enough selection.... for two three beer night

LOL I think that is worth a beer wager.

You probably have it in the back of your truck heading home. Lol.
I do have the Fred Flintstone "Bet, bet, bet, bet, bet, bet, bet" going off in my head

I don't but I see that the ad has already been removed from Kijii. I spoke with the seller and he had multiple people coming to see it today. Man I wish that I had liked that theme. Two pins at that price for the cost of many new pins.

Yeah, I'm in the same boat - if it was a Marvel theme for example I would have been all over it but I bet that goes for most of us....

So true. I thought I had a deal on a couple of local AVLE's but the sellers changed their minds. Not that I blame them as I often change my mind when buying and selling things. That being said if someone in Alberta has an AVLE, XMen or Spiderman I am ready to buy. Maybe even a Ghostbusters premium but that is at the top of my budget so not my first pick.
Quoted from extraballingtmc:website says 9295cdn for pro and 8700 usd for le. Are these the real prices or what they are told to post as msrp?
I contacted the good man tommy at nitro today ...
Alien SE w/27” Monitor (7k USD) $9295 CDN + $295 Shipping (Regina Depot) + tax = $10,549 CDN
Alien LE w/27” Monitor ($8700 USD) $11,595 CDN + $295 Shipping (Regina Depot) + tax = $13,079 CDN
It was obvious that was the correct price imo. And yes, Alien is way way pricey. Far too early to judge. No rush either. Not my thing to even think of pre-order when there are so many good pins out there, proven and available.
Yeah I called Tommy too. Said heighway put up price 6 months ago. Ft was 6k usd.
I see no reason to go le, defeats the swappable aspect heighway pushes.
Definitely a pricey game, better be damn good

Send it here and only pay 5%, road trip for pick up
Quoted from pingod:Send it here and only pay 5%, road trip for pick up
5% alberta 10-14% elsewhere .....good idea for people living i SK. Find a pinbuddy in AB
The TFLE on kijiji had 148 total plays on it , like new out of box . Probably best value LE out there IMO . Was looking for one for awhile .
