Talk about a TINY niche theme! I never heard of it and I like to think I am pretty aware. Well I do like the mini spiderman playfield, so the game should at least be fun to play.

Quoted from Aurich:A single Pinsider putting their first game on route will expose more people to real pinball.
So those MILLION PLUS people who looked at this release don't really exist? None of them noticed the name "Stern". None of them said to themselves "they still make pinball machines? I need one for my crib"? I get what you mean by "real pinball" but on the other hand your argument is ridiculous.
Quoted from rotordave:There could well have been 2 million clicks on the post. However, the people clicking these posts mostly have an attention span of <30 seconds, and have long since moved on to the next post of pumped up Kardashian lips or big asses.
I bet $50 that if you polled those 2 million people next week, they couldn’t even name one of the items that Supreme showed. Straight in - straight out. That’s the world we live in these days.
Sorry, but exposure to 2 million people is good no matter how you try to spin it. Even if one in one hundred took more than a passing glance at this and paid some attention that is still 20,000 people. 20,000 is WAY more than all of us pinball collectors combined. Not to mention that this brand apparently appeals to some people with money to spend.
As a side note, no one who I have asked ever heard of this theme. Even a few young people I work with who grew up skateboarding were clueless.
Quoted from mrossman5:I doubt that’s real. Let’s see the photos!
For those of us never facebookers, could someone explain?
Quoted from local_single:Especially with shit like this going on

Now that is some crazy shit! Those are actual gabble fall prices too.
Quoted from SilverBallz:But the stern supreme pinball machine is a complete waste of money.
I'm curious how you define "waste"? If you define it as "buy a game for $10,000 and sell it the next day for $25,000", then I agree with you.
Quoted from SilverBallz:Okay, so it’s a waste of money for the guy paying 25k and keeping it.
Now I agree!
Considering what this chair went for, I'd almost want to say the pinball machine was a bargain for $23000. Will be interesting to see what these pins sell for when they pop up in years to come.
Quoted from TigerLaw:I know that was an issue with the original The Pin (Transformers and Avengers), but didn't the Spiderman Home Edition address that problem?
This is not a pin or mini game. Looks like a full sized cabinet.
Quoted from BillPinball:Was watching it. Looks like 5 seconds it sold out.
Gotta hand it to Stern. This whole deal was a stroke of genius and looks to have paid off big for them with very little effort. From a marketing standpoint (dickheads or not) a lot of people with money were exposed to pinball and the idea of having one in your crib.
Quoted from meeotch:Not too late! ebay.com link » Supreme Stern Pinball Machine Ss2018
Or, you know, 8-10 other NIB games. I guess it depends on how much space you've got free, after you move that $70k out of your house.
Two of the three already sold? Wonder if that is a scam to drive up offer prices? It looks legit though.
