Any word when we will see pics and video? Is this really a pin without ramps and innovative mechs?

Quoted from Grantman:No official announcement/reveal yet and nobody knows when it will be ("soon"). Single level playfield implies no ramps but Gomez said about this Elwin game: "He's got a shot I've never seen before ever and I don't know where he came up with this."
I thought TNA was a great modern single level playfield game. I wonder if somebody at stern ever said don't make this a super Le. Price it at pro/Premium range and let as many pinball collectors as possible enjoy it.

Quoted from cooked71:Such a shame that the only 2 single level "retro" games from Stern so far have been stupidly priced "collector" efforts.
There should be a market for such games at Pro (or less) pricing.
I've more or less said the same thing. Beatles should be priced like a pro for what it is. We shall see if this is the same. Sure would have been nice for this not to have been limited so collectors can have more choices. As a Bond and pinball fan it kinda bums me out.
On the plus side I've re watched all but two bond movies in chronological order because of Stern and the 60th. So that I'm happy about.
It's the illusion of scarcity business model to drive profit up. While that seems like a good business idea it just turns people off in the long run. The same people that support the company. If Stern didn't limit the release and sold at a reasonable price many more people could enjoy a cool Elwin Bond game.
Quoted from cait001:well, more accurately it's manufactured scarcity. It's purposefully limiting a run. But then again, LEs also do that too.
Illusion of scarcity would be like if they built 1500 but said it was super limited, then trickled the rest out
From a postwar pinball nerd. Thanks for the clarification.
