    Quoted from Mcshaney:

    Could anyone see stern doing vaults in the near future ? I want a wwe attitude era royal rumble machine that be awesome having stone cold or the rocks music turn on when a shot is hit .

    Name a Data East machine that gets current prices. One of the best is TFTC and that gets about $3K. So why would they risk a re-release at twice the price?

    Also, Data East was WWF not WWE. Stern WWE was a flop. The old WWF is listed on Pinside as $2,200.

    Quoted from Dkjimbo:

    Data east Star Wars is already a more fun and better theme integrated Star Wars pin than the new one - that’s a slam dunk. Remake it with modern sound, color LCD and some new code - boom! Major hit! And as others have said GNR!!! God I hope the JJP GNR rumors are true!

    Give it up. Star Wars is such an awesome title but after 4 tries without getting it right I think we can assume the more you pay for the license the less you get in your machine.

    The 1992 Data East version was probably the best attempt.
    The 1997 Sega Trilogy Machine is not on anyone's Must Have list.
    The 1999 Pin 2000 Episode 1 with Jar Jar Binks was the turd in the good-bye punch bowl for Williams
    The 2017 Stern just represents the "who cares" anymore theme the movies sunk into.

    Quoted from MikeS:

    Why not just make those same improvements to a Stern Whitestar game instead? A Simpsons or LOTR with LCD and improved sound and added code would be a much better choice!

    License and toys. Heck, the LOTR SE didn't even have the figures.
