Maybe he is simply getting in tune with his real production costs; this is his first pin after all. At least he has consistantly provided a warning when each hike is coming so there should be no reason for anyone to cry about it later - if you want one, get one. I didn't sign up for one due to the theme, but from what I can tell he has always been up front with the pinball community on the costs and cut off dates.

I think partly that the LE's differences weren't worth $1000 more than the standard is reason to raise the price. Shaker and Invisiglass being available to add to the standard and the LE topper looking, how can I say... not that expensive to make?

Which makes the comparison even less appropriate!
