Quoted from kpg:

I still am in shock people paid 15 g's for the "Super Limited Edition" version of the game that only had some extra powdercoating and a cheesy topper on it. Gary has to still be laughing his ass off about that one.

Stern should give those people a $5,000 credit on their next purchase.

Quoted from cscmtp:

I take it you never owned Avengers?

In BM66's current state, my Hulk LE smokes it.

Ethically, what Stern did with this game is just plain wrong.

I'm not sure whether a code update can make it right.

Hopefully, in the end, the owners are truly happy and not just blowing smoke on Pinside.

Quoted from PanzerFreak:

The entire Super LE concept leaves a bad taste in many people's mouths. The top end game should be an LE and that's it, the Super LE crap for $5k more is ridiculous.

How do you charge loyal customers 15K and not deliver?

That takes brass balls or being completely oblivious.

Quoted from trunchbull:

I went into this with as open a mind as possible and man, idk, it really just doesn't shoot very well. It feels so cheap and flimsy. If the code turns out to be absolutely phenomenal then it might be a gamechanger (heh) but it'd have to be REALLY good.

It is appearing that this was little more than Stern gouging some of their most loyal customers and laughing all the way to the bank.

Quoted from xTheBlackKnightx:

Not revolutionary, not innovative, did not provide more options.
Gilligan's Island (BLY, 1991) used the same type of mech better.
Code is complete, game is fun, shots are smoother, everything works as it should.
Used game costs under $3K.

I've never seen anything in a Stern game that looks as well built or polished.

Quoted from Rarehero:

Ask them if they'd pay $10,000 for an unfinished game.

or 15K for a super duper limited edition unfinished game.
