Or maybe put six figures per year into early retirement/mortgage & just buy Avengers Pro?

I seriously thought it was LE or nothing too but after being spoiled & fortunate enough to play (in great depth) every LE ever made by Stern I do question if those LE games are $6,000 or $7,000 of joy compared to a $2,800 RBION with complete code.

But if money & space were no object I'd get LE's no doubt.

Still tho, LE shouldnt exist.

I think the reason people complain is because a game like TSPP would be $8k today when it was just $3800 a few years back.

Which sucks

But

On a positive note look @ IM. It was a stripped down $3800 game. Today Avengers Pro looks comparable or maybe better depending on opinions & it's at a comparable price to what IM was NIB @ release. So it's all good, well not all good but it's not as bad as all releases being $8k

Eventually folks may tire of the LE pricing & we may see more Pro's being sold than LE's/Premiums. Who knows what the future buyers are going to do?

No offense taken man

IM is fun & appealing but to me it's just Avatar with a 2nd ramp. I think Avatar is fun too BTW.

My comment wasn't to shit on IM. It was to compare a $4k Stern offering of then (IM) to now (AVG Pro) & compare the price/BOM. So for some buyers a NIB AVG Pro may be more desirable than a HUO IM. Maybe due to theme, gameplay, toys, price, depth or all the above. It's good we still have that choice was also my point. but... I am not defending the LE shenanigans though.

So I don't know which side of the fence I'm really on then
