Quoted from DaveH:

"Oh" SE, "My" LE, "God" CE
I was wowed by the release. Like lots of us, I said, no, lame. But then as I watched the stream and saw some of the VERY cool features of the game I thought... Hmmmm, cool, maybe. But the appropriate edition for me is $9500. I have plenty of disposable income for pinball. However $9500 is just a non-starter for me. I just will not go that far on a single game.

Quoted from konghusker:

Curious if jjp has the same difficult pricing restrictions as Stern, or if some dealers can offer a lower price?

Quoted from FlippyD:

Nice try explaining licensing. I’m sure people will keep complaining but that’s people.

Quoted from LTG:

And they will get it. It's a great pin.

Quoted from luvthatapex2:

About 200 people played the game at pinball gallery in Downingtown on Saturday. I was one of them. We played an LE.
Lets see, what else is from the movie? The playfield art has characters from the movie.
The backglass animations have single headshots of all characters from the movie.
There are no actors in the animations. All animations are from the movies but mostly show cut scenes of a ship or the deck, or non-people images.
The music sounds like a pirates movie, without having the pirates of the carribean assets. I assume the sounds engineer made alot of the music.
There are a bunch of callouts from one fo the actors from the movie, or it sounds like it anyway, I think his character name was Gibbs.
Other callouts are from sound alikes and sound great.
The game has an interesting layout, all rgb lighting including GI RGB. The right ramp leads to a rocking ship deck with a bunch of targets and has an area to load the cannon. There is a cool center shot locking chest and another ship on the left. Lots of targets and the spinning wheels in the center and an lcd compass in the apron. The detail is amazing and the lighting really sets up a nice moody environment. I'm sure others can elaborate but long story short, I think the game is fun and they have good game here.
