I'm assuming this is a new version of The Pin. If Stern ever gets these a little under $3,000 shipped they will sell a reasonable number of them.
Remember, we aren't the target market for these. We are the hard core collecting group, they want casual people to become hard core, this is their gateway drug.
Quoted from frolic:The Pin couldn't sell at $2500, how is this (improved?) version supposed to sell for $4k?
Just a head scratcher.
Did the pin ever reach $2,500? I remember it being higher than that.
Quoted from dmbjunky:There are many dealers who will sell a pin for this price or cheaper that is ready to go, no work needed.
True, but there are also a lot of dealer con men that don't stand behind their used inventory and expect you to return the game to them to do any work.
People buy new for confidence, this product is not targeting the Pinside market of people who buy, fix up, trade, sell games.
This would be a great small pin for a lot of people to keep at their office as well, I note.
If they hit the $2,500 shipped point and the game is fun I can think of the perfect spot for one.
Quoted from Yoko2una:And now we're up to $4300 on Amazon!
They are going the wrong way if they really want to open up new people to join the hobby...
Quoted from Yoko2una:And now they're up to $4K on their website!
Crazy price. Are they actually in stock and ready to ship? Sorry, I'm just behind on this point...
Quoted from michiganpinball:Basically much closer to a commercial game than the previous games.
Good to hear. I hope this platform takes off and grows the hobby with some first time buyers.
Quoted from CrazyLevi:Aren't all pinball layouts basically something else? Transformers has "basically" the same layout as about 50 other games.
Besides this has about as much in common with Transformers as BDK has with T2. This is an original design and it wasn't simply thrown together in a day.
They mean the Transformers version of the PIN (Avengers has identical layout) not the commercial version.
How many of these have been made? Does anyone know if Stern plans to release more themes on this platform?
This would be a phenomenal platform for Stern to release some themes like Zelda on. Would probably sell to a bunch of Pinsiders with small children.
Good to see project pinball using these as well. Perfect for them. Let's hope Stern stays committed to the platform.
Quoted from Yoko2una:Looks like they've considered what many have stated here and changed to a blank coin door, perhaps with an option for coins/dollars if requested?
IMO, this new design looks light years better with a blank door than what it was before with the SM art there. Looks much more like a traditional design now.
Huge improvement. I hope stern runs with this platform and develops several games for it.
