I don't know if his facts are way off or not, I've seen a lot of people selling and have sold Spiderman originals for $5000 lately. That being said, you're being a little disingenuous towards the new model as well. The new animations on the DMD are phenomenal, I personally, and I know a lot of other people would rather have custom comic art rather than Photoshop actors faces all over the game and it's not like they used to do in the past where they went out and bought prefabricated toys and slap them on the game. There are also all new custom molded toys. Not to mention the game had to be completely recoded. If you can get a good deal on the current one, I don't see where it's that much of an overspend compared to other premiums that are being put out.

That's a little strong... Have you seen the Pinball News video of the new animations?? I simply stated that I prefer the comic book art over actors faces, not that you should or that everyone should. I also think the custom side armor is a cool upgrade and they also did several things to bulletproof the game from issues that were experienced with the first version in the way of protectors and changed components. If those things plus having a game that is brand new as opposed to 6-9 years old isn't worth $1500 to you, completely your choice!

Ordered ours a week ago, just waiting for shipments to begin!!

I was told two weeks ago that it would be early to middle of February.

Got word from my distributor that our game shipped today from Stern and should be delivered on Wednesday at our house! Can't wait

That's what I had heard also, but I got a surprise call today and I wasn't going to complain!

Matt is also doing custom buildings and a train specifically for the VE, so that base is covered.
