I'm thinking most of these are sold to non pinball people, on the face of it seems like $3000 for an almost new pin (with color dots) seems good. But likely most here will prefer a full commercial pinball machine.
Quoted from akm:Perhaps. I do think the machine is close enough to a full commercial machine to appeal to pinball people (and as such, several here have bought one). That said, I do understand the lack of interest and it's obviously not for everyone.

I love the video you made. Very well done as always.
I'm not in the market but maybe you can explain how this is different than the old 'The Pin' which was not serviceable and had the legs underneath the cabinet.
This does look a lot more like a full size pin more like Costco IM than Transformers the pin.
Is it wood, does it feel heavy like a full size pinball machine etc..?
Maybe people are thinking it's like TF the pin.
It's unfortunate that Stern kept the old name kind of like if Ford made a new car and called it the Pinto.
Quoted from akm:It shares more in common with full size pins than it does not, compared to the Transformers or Avengers "The Pin" models.
The playfield lifts up just like any full size pin. From the looks of it, the playfield is either the same size as a standard playfield, or at least really close to it.
Every part is accessible just like on a full size game and it uses standard Stern parts, so its fully repairable just like a commercial game.
The glass is normal and slides off like on any regular pin (swappable, I currently have my invisiglass on it).
The cabinet doesn't have much in it, but it is wood. Definitely a different type from the full commercial games as it doesn't weigh that much.
There are a bunch of photos at the top in case anyone is wondering what it actually looks like on the inside.
yep thanks for the explanation. I was just saying it's unfortunate if people think of this like the old version of the pin which didn't look good. Actually this SM looks nice but I do have a real SM already so I can't think about this one.
