Quoted from PEN:

Why? you can already buy mine for 5k, you want a new one from Stern for close to 8k? Think about it, Stern is not going to charge the same price for LOTR as they are for IM. It makes perfect sense for them to make IM, because the price to produce it is cheaper than most of their games. LOTR has more going on in it than Mustang LE....How much are they charging for Mustang LE?

Quoted from erak:

South Park. with new episode up to date modes and new art package.

Quoted from PEN:

I am confused by peoples assessment of LOTR being a must to remake. Do they not sell between 4k and 6k? Are people having trouble finding awesome examples for that price range? Its likely the second or third must produced Stern, along with TSPP and AC/DC. I would think that Nice examples of LOTR would sell for more if it was in such demand. It could be my location tipping the scales though, Michigan tends to have a whole lot of pins compared a lot of states.

Quoted from labnip:

I have a HUO Seawitch I've been married to forever that you can have.
Hell, I'll even through in free shipping.
But have to warn you... There's no off switch.

Quoted from o-din:

Well, I know we both made the same choice. And if they do it, it would affect the resale value of our machines, but would still be more than the original LE cost NIB.
So I'm sticking to my guns on this one. Don't look at pinball as an investment. Get what you like for what you are willing to pay at the time, and if you decide to get rid of it later on, accept the fact that you may not get it back. Just like anything else. And if you get a little more, then that helps make up for others where you didn't.

Quoted from RobT:

Sorry I should have expanded. I don't think RBION sucks I just don't like it enough to want a NIB one when you can get a nice huo version for $3k, which is about $2k less than NIB would be
