The last one sold in an hour. Just keep bumping your post till you get an offer you like.

Around $13k-15k I would think (maybe more). Last one in US and one of the last to go off the line which means it has all of the latest hardware. People were paying $20k for Magic Girls that didn't even fully function...

Mograph guy here... just wanted to say you absolutely crushed it with the entire package, and the animations are by far my favorite aspect of the game. You deserve so much more than the proceeds from the sale, and it's a huge bummer more folks won't have the opportunity to appreciate your work. Your stop motion stuff rules btw

Trade it and throw in another 20 grand and you could probably get yourself a Supreme. Now that's a game that certainly works and is a real collectors item!

$20k by midnight!

Kidding aside, I played the Aliens at the GSPF in Lodi and I absolutely loved it. The artwork, animation and gameplay were all bad ass. I’m with you, I hope it stays local. Price wise, I keep hearing the LEs are trading for $13-15k. I’m guessing your NIB should bring at least that. The customized side rails and connection to the design team could also help.

GLWS when you do list it!

That's silly, noone would make that trade.

I am still waiting for a Ray Harryhausen themed machine, maybe someday... BUMP for your Aliens LE and good luck with a sale!

Brad

Of course he would! He is a rich pop star with good taste.

Yup. And after mine sold people were asking me about this one.

As with all expensive things, it's about finding the right buyer, but I doubt it will take long to move.

How have the LEs shot up to $13k-$15k so quickly? It surely can’t be just because they were the last off the line - why would there be such a price discrepancy? I think it’s a great game (I own a standard), I’m just a little taken back by this new higher price zone.

Supply and demand I suspect. People want them and they aren't making them anymore.

Because there are very very few LEs in the US (<20?) and most of the LEs made by HP were late in the production cycle...meaning most of the early bugs on the standards are not present on the LEs.

This was the biggest factor in making my decision to jump on one for 13k. That and the fact it was new in box made it an easier decision to make. Buying an orphan Alien that had a billion plays on it wasn't even on my radar.

The collection my game went into was for a buyer who got burned by the Heighway collapse, dunno what money they lost, but they were in for a game. They wanted the game still, they could afford it, and they were willing to pay for it. Because if you want one, where are you going to get it? This is the end. The game isn't gonna get made again, what's out there is what you get. There is no stash of LEs sitting new in box, this game probably literally the last one now.

I know the one I sold was opened, because we opened it before it was loaded on the truck. My box was a little trashed, the game was just fine. Kelly's box is in better shape than mine (it was on the same truck that delivered mine) so I'm confident his is cherry.

I’ve watched Alien, and the drama, from a distance. This individual one will be worth more than an original BBB, so wish I had the cash! GLWTS.

Surprised this hasn't already been snatched up.

On the other hand I didn't expect mine to move in only an hour, so hey. I know he's talking to people, just a matter of someone pulling the trigger with the right offer.

I personally think Kelly set a new bar for how to use movie clips in a game. Not a glorified laser disc player, he really edited the crap out of things to keep the fast paced and cohesive. Whoever owns this will have a good little story as people are watching them play.

It's a fantastic game, just a shame the story ended the way it did.

The original-original plan was to put it in MY house!

GLWTS!

Played this at my friend’s house in Rochester. This statement is 100% accurate. The integration of this theme into the machine is best I have seen. I lost more than a few balls looking at the screen and I didn’t even care. I am sad that I won’t get to play it again and I hope JJP or stern see’s the talent here and picks you up in the future.

I don't see the value of LE being more than standard with beacon lights, shaker and lit interior blades added plus powder coated glass top frame. Consequently if LE's are going for 12-13k, so should an upgraded standard. A standard machine should be $11-12k imo. This is one case where an LE can be created from a standard + $500 to $1k.

I get the impression that LEs are right at 15k, but Aurich could weigh in on what his sold for.

I see on other groups that Kelly has his listed for 16.5k. As I noted before, this game is in BBB and MG territory from a collectors perspective.

Somewhere between 100-150 games built?
Of those probably 50 of the more recent built ones which are what you would want as a collector
Better theme than BBB or MG
Actually works (unlike MG)
Unlikely to ever be remade (unlike BBB or MG)
Best gameplay of the 3 by far

If BBB and MG sell for 15-20k, then I have to think a NIB AlienLE is in that same territory (if not now, then it will be after the last few change hands)

Le can be bought for $10k and standards $9k

Sure once all sold prices will increase

does that include shipping to US and import fees? If not, then tack on another 1500 to your price.

Also, toss your morals out the window for anyone wanting to buy from such a company.

A game is a game, last time I checked I wasn't a mass murderer, shipping by air is between $600 to $800 depending on state
Even if you say $11500 still way under $15k

Congrats Kelly! It is a good home, let someone else announce it, but lots of people will get a chance to play it now, makes me happy.

The game isn't that fun to play.
