Quoted from mayuh:Hmmm... So there IS something about that rumor? I didn't buy it yet...
No, Stern is very busy building a large backlog of orders. Sales appear to be very strong.

Quoted from DCFAN:Yep. That is what I am referring to and thus the bar for the captive ball likely was a last minute decision that was not tested enough.
We could help. Let's all do some bar research this weekend!
It used to be done a lot to have people facing into the article rather than the edge of the page during the layout process.
Quoted from Ranhorton:Kind of appropriate that it's a negative because so is this whole thread.
I've been following these posts for a while and have never chimed in to the "downer" topics but I am also very disappointed by the lack of communication as a first time NIB purchaser waiting for my GBLE.
Gonna stick it out and try to keep the faith, but chances are this is gonna be my first and last NIB Stern purchase.
Some folks just don't have the risk tolerance for the uncertainty inherent in the preorder process. Nothing wrong with that. This is my third preorder and I would happily do it again.
Quoted from No_Skill:5 pixels out of 2,073,600 seems more than reasonable.
As long as they are not grouped in the center of the screen.
Quoted from Banker:I am sure stern will recup it's cost from the play field manufacturer .
Direct cost only. Indirect cost is where the real pain is. How many folks have cancelled orders? I did.
I dropped out of my GB LE after assessing the risk and my personal tolerance for it. That's what it comes down to - decide how much risk you are comfortable with. There is no wrong answer. Do whatever will further your enjoyment of pinball.
Because I enjoyed Full Throttle so much at TPF, I ordered a FT LE instead. It works for me. I am not urging anyone to do what I did. Just do what works for you.
Quoted from Wickerman2:buy Heighway
I did. Cancelled my GB LE and ordered a Full Throttle LE from CoinTaker and ordered the Alien conversion kit with beacons and fiber optic ramps too. Full Throttle LE should be here in 2-3 weeks. Melissa is great!
Quoted from o-din:Here's an idea. I'm not on facebook, but if somebody is, why don't you post some pictures of your cracked clearcoat on Stern's Facebook page and ask them directly what they are doing to resolve this issue.
They delete those quickly.
Quoted from Herm:I canceled a Ghostbusters I had on pre order yesterday. To much of a gamble right now. Maybe next year ill look into one.
I cancelled a GB LE and ordered a Full Throttle LE.
Quoted from Drenden:So basically the only person making playfields that are worth a damn right now is Mirco?
The playfield on my FTh LE that arrived today is beautiful.
