I tried picking one up from JJ at Game Exchange and he's sold out as well. Apparently he asked if they were going to be making more and their response was "Focus on selling our latest release instead."

Quoted from Baiter:

Interesting response... ignores the fact that the customer was asking specifically for ST, nothing else.

Interesting sales approach huh? "Convince them to buy what we have. Not what they want." As if this was a nimbly wimbly purchase decision to begin with.

Quoted from Trekkie1978:

For clarification, I down voted because I think there is a big enough difference between the pro and premium, to justify the premium.
The LE is in a class of its own, but IMO, the premium is equivalent to many other Stern LE's.

I agree that the LE is in a class of it's own with all of the additional trim options--but don't you think that the left outlane kickback and the ability to rescue your ball is enough of a difference to go for the Premium over that of the Pro?

Quoted from 85vett:

That feature is in the pro as well. It's a virtual kickback to where the ball just gets kicked back out into the shooter lane and is auto plunged. I actually wish that feature could be turned off. With the pro, it's easy enough to keep the ball out of the left outlane and having the kickback feels like cheating. On the prem/le it's a bit harder as you don't have the rubber post there.

Oh wow. I didn't realize that.

Quoted from Trekkie1978:

Star Trek 3 comes out next summer...could they always tie a new run of premiums with the movie release?
From what I have read, the pin seems to be a popular seller. After all, they are still making the pro model a whole 2 years after it was introduced.

Oooh. New Premium artwork package to tie into the new movie??

Quoted from Trekkie1978:

But in my opinion, this is a great game that should be shared with as many people as possible.

Agreed. I think it's great that they're two years in to production and still selling out.
