Quoted from rubberducks:Stern's claim that they test every machine is just so obviously complete and utter bollocks.
Always has been. My NIB Monopoly came with an unshootable ramp shot and the instruction card for a different machine.
I find it hard to believe Stern did _any_ individual QC on these; for the number (out of a small total) reported here that had broken flippers within the first few plays, certainly _any_ reasonably rigorous QC protocol would have discovered this "bad batch of parts" before they left the factory.
Quoted from vid1900:Stern has been buying those same flippers, from the same IL company, for years.
No one is going to do any individual testing on a $1 part; not Stern, not the company that made them.
No one's suggesting they should test _individual parts_, but we've been led to believe they _do_ spend at least a minute or two flipping on each individual machine for QC purposes. Doing so, they'd have found this problem before _any_ of the "bad batch" were shipped, wouldn't they?
