Stranger Things is STH and I believe Stern stopped running pros, premiums and UV kits awhile back. From what I’ve heard they will not hit the line again. Stern is currently prioritizing Mando Godzilla and Deadpool premiums on the second line I believe

Naysaying Spooky games is wack, TNA RAM ACNC and HWN all shred. I prefer their games over JJP and AP any day of the week.

“Design is not a strength of Spooky”

Care to elaborate? I love the design of each of the Spooky pins I listed earlier. HWN by far being the winner…followed ACNC RAM and TNA. They don’t feel or play like Sterns and are more difficult in some ways. But that’s what I love about them. They all shoot great…if you’re shooting great.

What about it constitutes a design “disaster”? It shoots great. You’re of course entitled to your opinion but opinions without supportive reasoning is just…hot air.

So…what are the next games NEVER to hit the line again? Is this the last time for Deadpool and Jurrasic? Stranger Things and Iron Maiden are both officially out of production right? I bet TMNT might not see a run either given the lesser demand (which is insane as it’s a fantastic game)

See but, it’s cheap to manufacture as it has a low BOM and it’s a popular theme. So if the license is still active I can see them running it again.

lol how do you account for all the $8000 pros being sold on the secondary market then? The license is gonna run out soon and it definitely has a higher BOM than some of the other games.

Real drop targets banks are very expensive, that’s why we don’t see them on pros anymore… metal ramps and rails. That’s about it.

This was what I was referencing

Everyone knows the waitlist for DP is far longer than the numbers that Stern will ever produce. Every time it goes on the line distros think they are getting 10 and they actually receive like 3. A friend of mine sold an unmodded HUO DP a month back for $7800 believe it or not. Like anything else they won’t run the game forever and when they get back to the normal cornerstone schedule we will see far less previously released titles hit the line.

Smart man

Here’s a trick for getting your game QUICK, like… lightening quick. Open a location, become Stern army and let the public enjoy your games, make money and become adored by your community.

Not unless Kaminkow designs it. And if he does it’ll be a $12k game. If not the licensing will be so expensive it’ll lookin like Led Zep. It’s a lose lose.

I’m interested in BTTF, but as a pro for my location. If it’s a $10k boutique game hard pass for me.

ELTON JOHN?!?! No way. That is just like…odd.

LION KING?!?! No way…that is just like…odd.

Stern has 2 lines.

This is why they released Rush, I doubt they’ll drop two turds in a row

It’s unclear whether or not DP JP and a few other older games will be on the line in 2023. Off they go back to four cornerstones a year the backlog will definitely suffer due to parts shortages

If anyone is waiting endlessly on a DP pro I’ll let mine go in Rhode Island for a reasonable price. It’s been on location from 4pm-9pm for the past six months. It’s in nice shape cleaned once weekly and waxed once a month. I’m the second owner. We have too many superhero pins in here. I’m also open to trades. Pm me.

Oh my bad I’ll just go F myself then. There’s a lot of people looking for a DP so I figured I’d throw it out there. Nothing predatory about offering up a nice clean softly routed DP for $5k even. I’ll just keep it on location earning. Don’t pm me. Offer revoked.

…rude. Here I am thinking I’m being helpful to the community.

Stern is going to run everything forever now until every square one of the planet is populated by Sterns. I think you’re good.
