Quoted from iceman44:Having read through this thread, anyone who is in the market for any upcoming Stern title should give it some serious thought. A few observations:
"Stern has a problem with code completion. Are you comfortable with this knowing that it may indeed never be completed?"
Yes, stick with Lyman and Dwight and you won't be disappointed, primarily Lyman, in fact you get some of the greatest pins ever. OR just wait and buy when it actually gets completed.
"Stern has had some serious playfield issues. Can you live with that?"
Yes, the Pf's with issues are being replaced and dealt with and it doesn't seem to matter much to the masses. Ghostbusters is one of Stern's biggest sellers ever.
"Stern has increased their prices somewhat dramatically while reducing quality. Most would find this unacceptable."
And yet they keep selling pins people want in record numbers. Why is that?
"Stern now has cabinet-integrity issues. My question is, and I'm not trying to be a wiseass-WHY are people still patronizing Stern?"
Answer the question, why do you think people are still buying Stern pins and the line for Star Wars is around the block?
You have some nice Sterns in your collection so maybe you could answer your questions. Just sayin.
