Quoted from kklank:

You have to buy a Premium over an LE. LE's are sold out!

Quoted from Aurich:

I think Stern is making a smart move by selling this stuff. IMHO they should take the next step, and eliminate the LE model entirely, and just offer even more mods to create the "ultimate edition". So if you want the mirrored backglass and special armor and topper and all the goodies you can just order them with your game. Distributor can install them before they ship. Makes the distributor more useful.
I bet they'd make more money in the big picture selling the mirrored backglass separately to people than they do on the markup for the LE.
And it would avoid the awkward problem of buying an LE with special armor, and then having to buy the even "more special" armor to replace it.
So two models, Pro and Premium, and then all the optional upgrades.

Well said. That said, this reminds me somewhat of buying a German automobile. Any worthwhile option will require a hefty dollar outage. No such thing as base model.

Seconded. Given the history of various armor He-Man40 has done, I bet they're nice.

A silver/chrome sheet behind that would look awesome!

#62 8 years ago

More options are always good. I like the idea of being able to customize a pin and not be stuck with the all or nothing LE/pro. I don't see how that will take away from modders. In fact, I bet it will encourage more people to customize their pins. Hopefully, Stern can keep pricing in check.

Damn - this pin is going to cost me another 1K just in all these cool mods.

#64 8 years ago

Do you get money back for trading in your unused armor?

#65 8 years ago

Sweet rails!

#66 8 years ago

Needs its own thread though. Going to get lost in this *Stern* side rail thread.

Looks great! But I would be concerned that they aren't going to protect the cabinet from wearing, the cab would seem to be exposed right near the flipper button.

#74 8 years ago

The part towards the front of the game can be covered with clear mylar if you are concerned about wear. I would not be though in a home use environment.

Is that chrome underneath?

#78 8 years ago

I'm not sure what will be underneath. I usually use laminated paper, but some powder coated metal would be cool. It just isn't very cost effective.

I understand. Probably won't know what will look best until you get a game in your hands. i am looking forward to these.

If people want a chrome look some reflective mylar would probably be a reasonable solution, and not expensive.

I had to change it a bit, and went with an all Stainless Steel backing.
