This announcement is a win win, a win for my bank account as I have one already and a win for all the people wanting one without paying a premium price.
Also saying that, if I was in the market for one I would still hold out for the premium version, stern may have some surprises up it's sleeves, different art package like they have done with the pro.
I seriously doubt they would re-release the Luci version, that would upset a lot of people who already have their rare versions.
