Happy for all the Batman66 buyers. Just curious...

Is Stern going to let us see the video submissions the SLE "winners" sent to them ...or were the video submissions just for Stern's internal amusement?

Were the video submissions subject to a marketing campaign for Stern to use or were they promised never to be shared from the get go?

I just think it would be fun to see them. Anyone else?

Do video submitters feel cheated that their videos aren't part of a public salutation to Stern's success and achievments?

Or did I miss the Stern marketing campaign that featured the videos?

Quoted from He-Man40:

I'll share mine.

Absolutely freaking fantastic, I loved it, well done sir. I don't think that can be topped! I wish others would share theirs as well.

Quoted from xfassa:

I went the lazy route with my submission to Stern.

No one can say you don't deserve one or you don't love pinball. Well done and an impressive collection. Wow!

Quoted from MT45:

Happy to share my application video. Not the most creative but it got done, submitted, and importantly, got me an opportunity for the SLE

I received my TWD LE when they were first released direct from Stern. I checked with a light, uniform orange peel play field after a ton of play. But no marks on the metal magnet cores or metal magnet surrounds.

If it wasn't for the pics of the pits in the metal magnet areas I wouldn't have believed that was possible. That has to be an extreme force for that to happen to metal, right? Like strikes from a ballpeen hammer?

Is this just a BM66 thing? Because I can't remember anyone ever saying they mylared actual metal magnets before, just the wood surrounding playfield areas around the magnet cores.

O/T After reading the last few pages of this Batman thread and considering the GB issues I started thinking about how Stern has began changing recently and wondered what might be a contributing influence towards that.

Seems like much of the QC issues, use of shi!!y materials, and the cost saving direction Stern has taken seems to have started since they moved to the new location. I had a NIB SAM based TWDLE direct shipped from Stern when they were first released from their old factory. Great QC, good materials, and after a billion games the dimples turned into a uniform orange peel surface, no clear coat issues, and the magnet surfaces still look like new with no dimples. That period seems to have been a much simpler time.

Did Stern really have to move? Has the move changed Stern?

If you could snap a finger and go back to a time where Stern was still operating out of their old factory and their focus wasn't as centered on $$ as it seems to be now, would you want that?
