    Quoted from jester523:

    I thought about Stern enforcing the MSRP (not sure if that is legal) and if you buy an LE you have to hold it for atleast a year to buy a new one / next one. Somehow prove you still own it.

    Quoted from FlippyD:

    Any silly shit like enforcing terms of ownership is gonna get laughed out of court and never be a real tactic you can use.

    Stern used it on Batman 66 (Premium) SLE. Ford used it on some GT350 models.

    Quoted from Speedracer773:

    The point of this was to discuss better ways of getting pins out to those that want an LE for their own.

    agree if I could buy a backglass

    As someone who can't buy a backglass your opinion on how Stern should be doing things is less valuable to them than their game buying customer's opinions.

    One does not have to be rich to have many pinball machines and a good relationship with their distributor.

    Quoted from Obed_Marsh:

    how are more "casual" fans who don't avidly follow pinball news and rumors supposed to even know a game is coming with any kind of time to prepare?

    You don't. This isn't a mass produced item on the scale of a Furby or an iPhone where you can just go camp in line for a weekend and get one on day 1.

    Quoted from Obed_Marsh:

    In comparison I think the Spooky model worked relatively well

    Spooky & JJP don't have much in common with Stern. Their marketing and manufacturing aren't on the same scale and use appropriately different methodologies.
