Of course stern won't lower their price even if it costs them less in parts and labour. It's a business. Maybe one day unicef will get into the pinball business but until then you have to pay full pop 
Disclaimer: I know a lot of people on here are super serious so the above was a quote from the movie "Joe Dirt" and it is a joke.
Quoted from John_I:What happened to the thumbs down button?
I was getting too many so I asked Robin to remove it.
So on a plus note, it looks like it will be super easy to pull the playfield out if you ever need to to install blades or something.
Quoted from markmon:Welcome to 2015. The change here is that the flashers run off 5v LEDs rather than off 20v circuits pulsing 13v LEDs. The actual LEDs themselves are the same light. In the 13v version they're just rectified so that they receive less power. In short, in 1990 you needed a lot of power to make an incandescent bright. In 2015 you can achieve the exact same effect without the high voltage. So they cut the high voltage from the equation.
The flashers themselves are just as bright. The difference may be in the choice in which flashers they use and where. This has nothing to do with Spike. There is nothing in spike that can't produce the exact same effects seen in Walking Dead.
And this is from an LED expert! Thanks for the explanation Markmon
