Love AFM

But I have to say that green trim isn't a great look. Doesn't match the cab art at all.

This looks nice....

Interesting. Glad you guys are selling these. Can't wait to see in person.

Im kinda shocked they don't have some of the mods available on the market on the normal game. (Bill Ung; Cliffy; 3D translite, Glow in the dark rubber, clear target) Those mods are off the charts.

Games look nice, the green trim is a swing and a miss though. They need to switch that over to a gloss black.

I'm interested in a classic but if those prices are anywhere close I'm out.

I thought the same thing, as I was reading through I expected to see them listed under the LE, oh well least I can add them to a classic depending on price once announced.

AFM looks good in black.

Must concur. Black is the way to go for AFM.

Here's one I prepared earlier.

If I didn't already have one, I'd only be in for a classic edition. Not a fan of the bigger screen or speaker lights or green trim.

And I can't believe they didn't throw in a 3D translite on the LE...

The green trim is ugly.

I wish they offered some more mods like Bill Ung's mod or the lit martian eyes. Are the insert LEDs the same as MMR? I prefer color matched inserts over mimicking incandescent bulbs.

Not digging the green on the LEs, but I'm happy that more AFMs will be out in the wild. I have an original which I'll be sticking with, but anybody getting one of these will be getting one heck of a game.

Think they should offer black or green trim for the LE.

Suspect more black would be purchased.

No license could be cheaper than the 70 year old Universal Monsters.

I'm not sure about that green trim but the special edition may be the way to go. We can do our own powdercoating and I'm not a huge fan of mirror blades either, I prefer decals.

As said earlier; colossal pooch screw on green trim.

They mention multicolored ship lights but don't mention if the mini ships pattern change like the bill ung kit for the original. This game would be a nonstarter in my book without something similiar to bill's kit. It is that good.
