Mr McCune we regret to inform you that your MOPle has not made it. It is with a heavy heart we say we are sorry.

Quoted from PismoArcade:

Stop me if you've heard this before...
A guy signs up on Pinside and his first post is misinformation that others take as fact.
Pandemonium ensues.

Stop

Quoted from BackFlipper:

So, let me get this thread right. A first time poster, QuantumLeap, claims he got screwed. Mob mentality takes over. People feel harmed. The ambulance chasers come to the rescue even though none of them are litigators (BTW, there is no case against Stern here - a very weak one potentially against a distributor or two, but only if they cashed your check). QuantumLeap never comments again (he accomplished his goal 300 comments ago). The Mob, apparently, will drop their case against distributors/Stern if Stern ups the number of LE's to "everybody who wants one can have one now." Is that right? I am just trying to get caught up.
Where were all of you when I called 8 distributors looking for a HULK LE just 16 minutes after the photos were released? I had to go with Blue. Oh well, I wanted the game and got it in blue. Same deal with AC/DC. I have a premium and love it. I bought TRON LE for $5400, Avatar LE for $4800 and TF Decepticon for under $5K. I recently saw a Hulk for $5800 NIB. Just be calm. Some flippers will get desperate and sell. Some may actually go for less than $7200.

I like the blue much better.

Quoted from Whysnow:

Solution is simple IMHO. Stop supporting Stern and the LE model.
Problem is it will never happen in the near future and pinball is booming and a bunch of folks are throwing $$$$ at STERN for a LE that they have not even seen a video of, nor do they have a contact of what features will be in the game.
I somewhat hope that MOPLE sucks when it comes out and the price plummets. I would feel bad for everyone that wanted an awesome game of their favorite band. I would think it is pretty funny for the flippers that hopefully get burned holding a game too long and the speculators that had planned to sell it NIB next year for 3k more. In the long term, maybe another 'TFLE' would teach a few people to stop tossing your $$$ at an unfinished product.

wow - this takes the fizz out of the pinball pop. I hope it sucks??? really? Your wish is to teach people a lesson? You sound more like the uni-bomber and less like a pinball fan.

Quoted from markmon:

All you whiners on this thread has caused me to rethink my LE purchase. Because of this I'm just going to flip it and pocket a bunch of cash and buy a premium. I already have an offer for $10k for my LE. It's sold as soon as I get it.

Ok - i did not think you were so impressionable to let some folks online to sway your decision. Good luck the LE backglass looks sweet. Help out Hassel Castle and sel it for what you got it for?
why is this different than Jim's FT post? Cause you waited 3 days?

I hope the game rocks. Borg is on a roll. Sour grapes suck. Go outside and take a deep breathe. There is always predator LE

Quoted from The_Gorilla:

I saw an ACDC LE and a Premium that were recently taken out of box in the same room. It was difficult to determine which one was the LE. In all honesty, when I look at the side by side comparison on Metallica LE and Premium, I question why I bought the LE.
Of course, the answer is that I bought the LE when the only other choices were Pro (rhymes with "no") and a crappy looking Premium. If the updated Premiums would have been a choice out of the gate, I would not have spent the extra $$ for a signature.

You can give up your spot and make another pinsider very happy

With all the excitement for Metallica and Star Trek how is the game coming next between the 2 even going to have a chance ?

Wow hmmmmm, a true sleeper title. Any hints ? Can you say?
