Tron premium priced correctly would probably have crazy demand. Add the ramp lights, DP mode, moving recognizer, and LEDs..no brainer for Stern IMO. Keep the typical LE bling to the LE models like the Chrome trim, numbered plaque, and signed playfield. They would not only capture people that are looking for a Tron but, also the people that would upgrade their pro. The only downside is possibly ruffing the feathers of about 400 LE owners, a drop in the bucket really.

Quoted from Aurich:

Witness the outrage when Jack essentially broke that promise with the Ruby Red

Was the outrage from the new limited model itself or from JJP pumping them out before filling original commitments of the first LE? To put it in the Tron argument, it would be like Stern taking deposits on the first 400 LEs and not shipping all of them out, then releasing a new LE. That would certainly warrant an outrage.

Quoted from goatdan:

Tron Premium in the short term would really help their bottom line, but in the long term it would destroy their market.

I'd bet that people will still buy the LEs they are interested in. We get really excited when new pins are announced and in most cases started opening up our wallets right away. I'm thinking people are going to buy the version that has the package that appeals to them the most, limited or not. The only thing that may be highly impacted is pre-orders. What's the rush at that point?

Quoted from vid1900:

No matter what we say here, Stern will be making a Tron Premium (so I've just been told).

I find it hard to imagine they wouldn't. There is demand that they are capable of filling and so it will be filled, that's just how it works.
