If having to order before seeing gameplay my priority is: Manufacturer. Theme. Designer. Software team. This led me to a Mando LE. My only Stern. Considered GB Premium NIB in 2016 and had a deposit on Stern Star Wars LE NIB in 2017, but backed out at the time. All three were dream themes for us, but gameplay decisions overrode that when gameplay was revealed. Very happy with Mando LE. Been saving since 2016 so money was low on the list by the time Mando came around. Lead times have greatly changed since 2016 though and I can see how this might lead someone to buy a NIB LE. The gameplay, at least early looks, seems to be early enough to back out of an order, even LEs, if it concerns you.
