Quoted from jonesjb:What are the differences in this updated version?
Don’t you know, you have to have a national security clearance to be properly briefed 
I’m sure we will find out any day now

Quoted from tmntrule999:What day did you go? I played on Saturday and there were 3, an original, a LE and a SE. They pointed out the differences between the LE and SE to me.
I was there Friday and I believe the SE was on far left, original in middle and LE (which I played) on right.
Quoted from Yelobird:Ok I am not trying to poke at you again but they did not Have an SE in the room so I question how you are suggesting the similarities of these products? There were 2 LE models and an original in the room. No SE to make assumptions or statements about for the record for anyone using these comments to make a buying decision. Just avoiding any confusion over Assumed statements.
I was the first to play the games. 3 games present. 2 different remake versions. That’s all I’m saying.
CAN WE STILL GET ON THE LIST FOR PLAYING THIS GAME
I AM ON ALREADY DOWN FOR A LE MODEL -- RIGHT JOE???????

Sorry no. That was an LE also Ashley confirmed it. I went Monday morning. Trust that they didn't switch them out and yes I thought the same when I was there and she clarified that it was not an SE.
MBr today and it's

So there was a CE present..... Was there a huge difference between the classic and LE beside the topper ?
Quoted from NPO:Passed on MMR and have an original AFM, so this is my first real interest at a remake . Do the prices tend to hold steady as time goes along, or do they creep up gradually?
Since there are so many options; prices on high end machines drop anywhere from 500 to 1000 and then stabilize.
Quoted from hoby1:So there was a CE present..... Was there a huge difference between the classic and LE beside the topper ?
The "CE" was an original, unmodded MB. The LE and SE were remakes, and as previously posted, the SE was in reality a LE without the topper.
The exact differences between all versions needs to come from CGC. I plan to get a LE but all versions are excellent.

Thx !!!
When you say the CE was an unmoded original you mean it’s a remake of an original correct ?
Or did the actually have a original MB there to show as comparison?

I read it as there was no CE there. What some people thought was a "CE" was in reality just an original, unmodded MB.
Quoted from Goronic:You sure? That sounds wacky to me...by the way where can I buy that LE you guys are talking about?
You can't some dude bought the last 30...
Quoted from hoby1:Thx !!!

It was an original MB - incandescent lights - no visible mods. There was no remake CE version to test.
I believe people will be happy with whichever version they select.

Quoted from NeilMcRae:hmm a bit disappointed not to be invited to play test
No invites. You had to PM Ashley.
If you did, I'm sorry you didn't hear back.
LTG : )
Quoted from whitey:Are they dicking around and not showing all 3 versions ? Come on man
Or maybe the wait is much longer than we think.
Quoted from hoby1:Or maybe the wait is much longer than we think.
Bite your tongue!
Perhaps they wanna go up against The Munsters ♂️
We have had the funds saved for this release since the start of the year. We just bought an IMDNLE with the funds and sold a MET premium to help fund MBrLE again. I think we will be able to save the extra money before the game is announced, and hopefully the game is announced before Munsters. If Munsters comes out first, I think our money will be going to Stern. Come on CGC, we are loyal and love your product but this is getting a bit silly.
Quoted from iceman44:Seriously?
Yes. Seriously. I explained why I didn't know.
Sorry, I was TDY on military assignment, saw this thread on my phone and typed that out in a parking lot right before reporting in for my duty day. Couldnt take my phone with me, and figured someone could answer my question, and I'd check later.
My bad.
Someone else answered my question later that day, which was very helpful.
Quoted from NeilMcRae:it was over a year almost 6 months ago!
I aint getting any dam younger......... 
Quoted from jonesjb:What are the differences in this updated version?
The question everyone wants to know...

Im gonna go out on a limb here......... the board set.

You and many others will buy Munsters!

Quoted from Edster:I’m starting to lose my interest in this game...
Hello Munsters.
Ditto.... and especially for me as I owned it already. Good game but its not super good.
Come on CGC lets get this game out, my cash was redirected twice waiting. Toooooooo many other great titles out there any to little space.
Im sure this is defiantly redirecting buyer funds as MB does not have the gameplay and staying power of AFMr and MMr.
It's a good thing that CGC is not in the promotional business, they would starve! Worst new product introduction I have ever seen, not one teaser, nothing to keep their loyal customers in the loop to make the wait worth while.
I too would buy a munsters right now if available even though I have waited on MBR this long due to the poor handling of this game by CGC.

Sorry but why would you say this? For the record CGC has Not promomoted or teased anything as they made it clear the product for disclosed reasons is Not ready yet. The only thing they acknowledged was congratulations you (Pinside) verified our secret. No hype or tease other than the constant rumors, speculation, and theories created here on Pinside. It’s a great title that stood the test of time for 20 years so while some may be inpatient and buy something else they will still do great with this game when they can safely release it. Curious, what stings buyers more, no info of any kind till they are ready to ship or a game release like POTC 12 months premature with ongoing disappointing changes after payment and delays? Yes I am in on POTC LE but that was way more upsetting compared to the business model of CGC in my opinion. Managing expectations

I agree. I would have purchased this game if it was revealed at TPF as planned, adding it to my MMr and AFMr LE. Now I just plan to keep my two games and play MBr on location. I’m sure it will be great, but I don’t really need a third game and the delay helped me recognize that.
I kind of disagree yellow, cgc has repeatedly said things to promote the game - that we will be blown away with the end product, new features, setting the bar high. That’s promoting right there. If anything we have to manage the high expectations cgc has given us, not our own.
Quoted from Tradesman:Thank you for your opinion. My opinion is they botched this and pissed off a lot of people therefore missing out on potential sales.
Didn’t the announcement of MB only happen because someone got all CSI on their asses? Probably would have been better if that never happened. Not really their fault. That said... I hate waiting too.

Yeah but........ JJP is building new games faster than CGC. That and the fact CGCs building a game that already exists.
I really love CGC games and their quality.... But christ Ill retire before I see game 5 come out and im only 51.
These people whining about it not being released to their schedule: I wonder, do they camp out at their preferred car dealerships complaining that next year's model isn't available, threatening to buy a competitor's car if they can't get it right now? "But Daddy, I wanted my new BMW yestuhday!!" Maybe just the car dealer's forums...
Quoted from TKDalumni:Here's a novel idea....It'll be released when it's ready. Take a deep breath and let that sink in.
It’s not like we have 3 more years to wait like we did with Woz?
Awesome topper? Check
Awesome LCD rendition? Check
Awesome light feature upgrades? Check
Otherwise same MB game? Check
